A Crank‐Nicolson Petrov‐Galerkin method with quadrature for semi‐linear parabolic problems

We propose and analyze an application of a fully discrete C² spline quadrature Petrov‐Galerkin method for spatial discretization of semi‐linear parabolic initial‐boundary value problems on rectangular domains. We prove second order in time and optimal order H¹ norm convergence in space for the extrapolated Crank‐Nicolson quadrature Petrov‐Galerkin scheme. We demonstrate numerically both L² and H¹ norm optimal order convergence of the scheme even if the nonlinear source term is not smooth. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A posteriori error estimates of mixed DG finite element methods for linear parabolic equations

In this article, we analyse a posteriori error estimates of mixed finite element discretizations for linear parabolic equations. The space discretization is done using the order λ?≥?1 Raviart–Thomas mixed finite elements, whereas the time discretization is based on discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods (r?≥?1). Using the duality argument, we derive a posteriori l ^∞(L ²) error estimates for the scalar function, assuming that only the underlying mesh is static.     

On the use of AGE algorithm with a high accuracy Numerov type variable mesh discretization for 1D non-linear parabolic equations

In this paper, the use of N-AGE and Newton-N-AGE iterative methods on a variable mesh for the solution of one dimensional parabolic initial boundary value problems is considered. Using three spatial grid points, a two level implicit formula based on Numerov type discretization is discussed. The local truncation error of the method is of O(k²h_l^-1 +kh_l +h_l³)O({k^2h_l^{-1} +kh_l +h_l^3}), where h _l  > 0 and k > 0 are the step lengths in space and time directions, respectively. We use a special technique to handle singular parabolic equations. The advantage of using these algorithms is highlighted computationally.     

Decay properties of linear thermoelastic plates: Cattaneo versus Fourier law

In this article, we investigate the decay properties of the linear thermoelastic plate equations in the whole space for both Fourier and Cattaneo's laws of heat conduction. We point out that while the paradox of infinite propagation speed inherent in Fourier's law is removed by changing to the Cattaneo law, the latter always leads to a loss of regularity of the solution. The main tool used to prove our results is the energy method in the Fourier space together with some integral estimates. We prove the decay estimates for initial data U ₀?∈?H ^s (?)?∩?L ¹(?). In addition, by restricting the initial data to U ₀?∈?H ^s (?)?∩?L ^1,γ(?) and γ?∈?[0,?1], we can derive faster decay estimates with the decay rate improvement by a factor of t ^?γ/2.     

The linear polarization constant of R n

Summary He present work deals with estimations of the n-th linear polarization constant c(H)_n of an n-dimensional real Hilbert space H. We provide some new lower bounds on the value of sup_║y║=1 │1,y> ... n,y>│, where x₁, ... ,x_n are unit vectors in H. In particular, the results improve an earlier estimate of Marcus. However, the intriguing conjecture c(H) _n= n^n/2 remains open.     

Fréchet Spaces of Holomorphic Functions without Copies of l1

Let X be a Banach space. Let H_w*(X*) the Fréchet space whose elements are the holomorphic functions defined on X* whose restrictions to each multiple mB(X*), m = 1,2, …, of the closed unit ball B(X*) of X* are continuous for the weak-star topology. A fundamental system of norms for this space is the supremum of the absolute value of each element of H_w*(X*) in mB(X*), m = 1,2,…. In this paper we construct the bidual of l₁ when this space contains no copy of l¹. We also show that if X is an Asplund space, then H_w*(X*) can be represented as the projective limit of a sequence of Banach spaces that are Asplund.     

Analysis of alternating direction collocation methods for parabolic and hyperbolic problems in two space variables

While alternating direction implicit (ADI) collocation methods have been used for several years to solve parabolic problems in several space variables, no convergence analysis has been derived for any of these methods. We formulate and rigorously analyze ADI collocation schemes applied to the inhomogeneous heat and wave equations on the unit square subject to homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions and appropriate initial conditions. We prove that each method is second-order accurate in time and of optimal accuracy in space in the L² and H₀¹ norms. Numerical experiments confirm the predicted rates of convergence. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

and Norms Error Estimates in Finite Element Method for Linear Parabolic Interface Problems

We derive new a priori error estimates for linear parabolic equations with discontinuous coefficients. Due to low global regularity of the solutions the error analysis of the standard finite element method for parabolic problems is difficult to adopt for parabolic interface problems. A finite element procedure is, therefore, proposed and analyzed in this paper. We are able to show that the standard energy technique of finite element method for non-interface parabolic problems can be extended to parabolic interface problems if we allow interface triangles to be curved triangles. Optimal pointwise-in-time error estimates in the L ²(Ω) and H ¹(Ω) norms are shown to hold for the semidiscrete scheme. A fully discrete scheme based on backward Euler method is analyzed and pointwise-in-time error estimates are derived. The interfaces are assumed to be arbitrary shape but smooth for our purpose.     

Embedding Theorems in B-Spaces and Applications

This study focuses on the anisotropic Besov-Lions type spaces B^lp,θ（Ω;E0,E） associated with Banach spaces E0 and E. Under certain conditions, depending on l =（l1,l2,…,ln）and α=（α1,α2,…,αn）,the most regular class of interpolation space Eα between E0 and E are found so that the mixed differential operators D^α are bounded and compact, from B^l＋s p,θ（Ω;E0,E） to B^s p,θ（Ω;Eα）.These results are applied to concrete vector-valued function spaces and to anisotropic differential-operator equations with parameters to obtain conditions that guarantee the uniform B separability with respect to these parameters. By these results the maximal B-regularity for parabolic Cauchy problem is obtained. These results are also applied to infinite systems of the quasi-elliptic partial differential equations and parabolic Cauchy problems with parameters to obtain sufficient conditions that ensure the same properties.

A fully discrete H 1-Galerkin method with quadrature for nonlinear advection–diffusion–reaction equations

We propose and analyze a fully discrete H ¹-Galerkin method with quadrature for nonlinear parabolic advection–diffusion–reaction equations that requires only linear algebraic solvers. Our scheme applied to the special case heat equation is a fully discrete quadrature version of the least-squares method. We prove second order convergence in time and optimal H ¹ convergence in space for the computer implementable method. The results of numerical computations demonstrate optimal order convergence of scheme in H ^k for k = 0, 1, 2. Support of the Australian Research Council is gratefully acknowledged.

Finite alogorithms for robust linear regression

In this paper Hubert's M-estimator for robust linear regression is analyzed. Newton type methods for solution of the problem are defined and analyzed, and finite convergence is proved. Numerical experiments with a large number of test problems demonstrate efficiency and indicate that this kind of approach may be useful also in solving thel ₁ problem.     

Interpolating Sequences of Parabolic Bergman Spaces

The parabolic Bergman space is a Banach space of L ^p -solutions of some parabolic equations on the upper half-space H. We study interpolating theorem for these spaces. It is shown that if a sequence in H is δ-separated with δ sufficiently near 1, then it interpolates on parabolic Bergman spaces.
