In this paper, an h p hp -local discontinuous Galerkin method is applied to a class of quasilinear elliptic boundary value problems which are of nonmonotone type. On h p hp -quasiuniform meshes, using the Brouwer fixed point theorem, it is shown that the discrete problem has a solution, and then using Lipschitz continuity of the discrete solution map, uniqueness is also proved. A priori error estimates in broken H 1 H^1 norm and L 2 L^2 norm which are optimal in h h , suboptimal in p p are derived. These results are exactly the same as in the case of linear elliptic boundary value problems. Numerical experiments are provided to illustrate the theoretical results.

Integral representations for the solutions to linear elliptic self adjoint boundary value problems are derived in terms of two functions which are generalisations of the single and double layer potentials used in the theory of harmonic functions. The generalised potentials are constructed in terms of a fundamental solution which is an approximation to the exact kernel of the boundary value problem in question. The representations so obtained are shown to provide a basis from which strict approximations to the solutions of boundary value problems can be developed. In particular the structure of the integral equation representing the given boundary value problem is precisely determined.

Factorization of linear elliptic boundary value problems in non-cylindrical domains

Consideration of an abstract improvement algorithm leads to the following principle, which is similar to that underlying iterative refinement: By making judicious use of relatively few high accuracy computations, high accuracy solutions can be obtained very efficiently by the algorithm. This principle is applied specifically to ${\text{GMRES}}(m)$ here; it can be similarly applied to a number of other “restarted” iterative linear methods as well. Results are given for numerical experiments in solving a discretized linear elliptic boundary value problem and in computing a step of an inexact Newton method using finite differences for a discretized nonlinear elliptic boundary value problem.

The Schwarz alternating method can be used to solve linear elliptic boundary value problems on domains which consist of two or more overlapping subdomains. The solution is approximated by an infinite sequence of functions which result from solving a sequence of elliptic boundary value problems in each of the subdomains. This paper considers four Schwarz alternating methods for the N-dimensional, steady, viscous, incompressible Navier--Stokes equations, $N \leq 4$. It is shown that the Schwarz sequences converge to the true solution provided that the Reynolds number is sufficiently small.

In this paper, we describe a method which proves by computers the existence of weak solutions for linear elliptic boundary value problems of second order. It is shown that we can constitute the computing procedures to verify the existence, uniqueness and inclusion set of a solution based on Schauder’s fixed point theorem. Using the finite element approximations for some simple Poisson’s equations and the results of error estimates, we generate iteratively a set sequence composed of functions and attempt to construct automatically the set including the exact solution. Further, the conditions of verifiability by this method are considered and some numerical examples of verification are presented.

Weighted analytic regularity in polyhedra

We are interested in PDE based mesh generation. The mesh is computed as the solution of a mesh PDE which is coupled to the physical PDE of interest. In [3] we proposed a stochastic domain decomposition (SDD) method to find adaptive meshes for steady state problems by solving a linear elliptic mesh generator. The SDD approach, as originally formulated in [1], relies on a numerical evaluation of the probabilistic form of the exact solution of the linear elliptic boundary value problem. Monte-Carlo simulations are used to evaluate this probabilistic form only at the sub-domain interfaces. These interface approximations can be computed independently and are then used as Dirichlet boundary conditions for the deterministic sub-domain solves. It is generally not necessary to solve the mesh PDEs with high accuracy. Only a good quality mesh, one that allows an accurate representation of the physical PDE, is required. This lower accuracy requirement makes the proposed SDD method computationally more attractive, reducing the number of Monte-Carlo simulations required.

We consider the Neumann-Dirichlet domain decomposition method for the solution of linear elliptic boundary value problems. We study the following question. Suppose that the auxiliary problems on the subdomains are not solved exactly, but only with a fixed, mesh size independent accuracy. Does the speed of convergence remain mesh size independently bounded? We show that the answer is no in general, but that mesh size independent convergence can be obtained if the accuracy requirement on the subsolvers becomes increasingly severe as the mesh size tends to zero.

Chapter 7 Preconditioned Iterative Methods for Nonselfadjoint or Indefinite Elliptic Boundary Value Problems

This paper investigates the Mikhlin stability of the Rayleigh-Ritz method for certain classes of linear elliptic boundary value problems. Piecewise polynomial coordinate functions are studied from the point of view of Mikhlin stability, and in particular, it is shown that appropriately scaled B-splines and appropriately scaled elementary Hermites yield a Mikhlin stable Rayleigh-Ritz-Galerkin process and approximate solution for the classes of problems considered. Firstly, a class of two-point boundary value problems studied by Birkhoff et al. (1968) is investigated, and then the results are extended to higher dimensions.

We study semilinear problems in which the nonlinear term has different asymptotic behavior at ±∞ with the limits (1.2) spanning a finite number of eigenvalues of the linear operator.

A generalized monotonicity theorem in the sense of Collatz is proved for almost linear elliptic boundary value problems of second order. This theorem is valid for continuous spline functions as used by the finite element method — in contrast to the classical theorems. The background is a generalized maximum principle with an interface condition for the normal derivatives which has been proven by Natterer/Werner in the case of the Laplace operator. Some numerical examples providing pointwise bounds for the solution of Dirichlet problems by cubic splines, the so called T 10 elements, are given.
