Higher Integrability of the Gradient in Degenerate Elliptic Equations

We prove that under some global conditions on the maximum and the minimum eigenvalue of the matrix of the coefficients, the gradient of the (weak) solution of some degenerate elliptic equations has higher integrability than expected. Technically we adapt the Giaquinta–Modica regularity method in some degenerate cases. When the dimension is two, a consequence of our result is a new Hölder continuity result for the weak solution.     

Irregular Solutions of Linear Degenerate Elliptic Equations

We give examples of discontinuous solutions and of unbounded solutions of linear isotropic degenerate elliptic equations. Discontinuous solutions exist even when both the maximum eigenvalue and the inverse of the minimum eigenvalue of the matrix of the coefficients are in the intersection of all the Lp spaces.

On the Dirichlet Problem with an Asymptotic Condition for an Elliptic System Strongly Degenerate at a Point

We consider a Dirichlettype problem for a system of elliptic equations of second order with a strong degeneracy at an inner point of the domain, when, in a neighborhood of this point, the principal term of the asymptotics of a solution is additionally given. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a solution of the problem considered in a weighted class of Hölder vector functions.

On the Dirichlet Problem for a System of Degenerate at a Point Elliptic Equations in the Class of Bounded Functions

We consider a weakly connected (by the lowest terms) system of elliptic equations of second order with the main part in the form of the Laplace operator, the order of which becomes degenerate at an interior point of the domain. We investigate a Dirichlet-type problem in the class of bounded Hölder vector functions. We obtain sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a solution.

Elliptic Equations with Degenerate Coercivity： Gradient Regularity

In this paper, we prove higher integrability results for the gradient of the solutions of some elliptic equations with degenerate coercivity whose prototype is where for example, a(x,u)=(1+|u|)^−θ with θ ∈ (0,1). We study the same problem for minima of functionals closely related to the previous equation.     

Error Bounds for Approximation with Neural Networks

In this paper we prove convergence rates for the problem of approximating functions f by neural networks and similar constructions. We show that the rates are the better the smoother the activation functions are, provided that f satisfies an integral representation. We give error bounds not only in Hilbert spaces but also in general Sobolev spaces W^m, r(Ω). Finally, we apply our results to a class of perceptrons and present a sufficient smoothness condition on f guaranteeing the integral representation.     

Error Estimates for the Numerical Approximation of a Semilinear Elliptic Control Problem

We study the numerical approximation of distributed nonlinear optimal control problems governed by semilinear elliptic partial differential equations with pointwise constraints on the control. Our main result are error estimates for optimal controls in the maximum norm. Characterization results are stated for optimal and discretized optimal control. Moreover, the uniform convergence of discretized controls to optimal controls is proven under natural assumptions.

Error Estimates for a Class of Elliptic Optimal Control Problems

In this article, functional type a posteriori error estimates are presented for a certain class of optimal control problems with elliptic partial differential equation constraints. It is assumed that in the cost functional the state is measured in terms of the energy norm generated by the state equation. The functional a posteriori error estimates developed by Repin in the late 1990s are applied to estimate the cost function value from both sides without requiring the exact solution of the state equation. Moreover, a lower bound for the minimal cost functional value is derived. A meaningful error quantity coinciding with the gap between the cost functional values of an arbitrary admissible control and the optimal control is introduced. This error quantity can be estimated from both sides using the estimates for the cost functional value. The theoretical results are confirmed by numerical tests.

Error Estimates for the Numerical Approximation of Boundary Semilinear Elliptic Control Problems

We study the numerical approximation of boundary optimal control problems governed by semilinear elliptic partial differential equations with pointwise constraints on the control. The analysis of the approximate control problems is carried out. The uniform convergence of discretized controls to optimal controls is proven under natural assumptions by taking piecewise constant controls. Finally, error estimates are established and some numerical experiments, which confirm the theoretical results, are performed.The first two authors were supported by Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología (Spain).

Error bounds for monotone approximation schemes for parabolic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations

We obtain nonsymmetric upper and lower bounds on the rate of convergence of general monotone approximation/numerical schemes for parabolic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations by introducing a new notion of consistency. Our results are robust and general - they improve and extend earlier results by Krylov, Barles, and Jakobsen. We apply our general results to various schemes including Crank-Nicholson type finite difference schemes, splitting methods, and the classical approximation by piecewise constant controls. In the first two cases our results are new, and in the last two cases the results are obtained by a new method which we develop here.
