Reciprocal-Log Approximation and Planar PDE Solvers
This article is about both approximation theory and the numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs). First we introduce the notion of reciprocal-log or log-lightning approximation of analytic functions with branch point singularities at ...
Convergence of Dziuk's Fully Discrete Linearly Implicit Scheme for Curve Shortening Flow
Convergence of Dziuk's fully discrete linearly implicit scheme which was proposed in [G. Dziuk, Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci., 4 (1994), pp. 589--606] for curve shortening flow still remains open. In this paper, we prove that this scheme has an optimal ...
Approximating Linear Response by Nonintrusive Shadowing Algorithms
Nonintrusive shadowing algorithms efficiently compute $v$, the difference between shadowing trajectories, and then use $v$ to compute derivatives of averaged objectives of chaos with respect to parameters of the dynamical system. However, previous proofs ...
Strong Convergence of Full Discretization for Stochastic Cahn--Hilliard Equation Driven by Additive Noise
In this article, we consider the stochastic Cahn--Hilliard equation driven by additive noise. We discretize the equation by exploiting the spectral Galerkin method in space and a temporal accelerated implicit Euler method. Based on optimal regularity ...
An Adaptive Finite Element DtN Method for the Elastic Wave Scattering Problem in Three Dimensions
Consider the elastic scattering of an incident wave by a rigid obstacle in three dimensions, which is formulated as an exterior problem for the Navier equation. By constructing a Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) operator and introducing a transparent boundary ...
Stability and Error Analysis of a Class of High-Order IMEX Schemes for Navier--Stokes Equations with Periodic Boundary Conditions
We construct high-order semidiscrete-in-time, and fully discrete (with Fourier--Galerkin in space) schemes for the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations with periodic boundary conditions and carry out corresponding error analysis. The schemes are ...
Second-Order Finite Difference Approximations of the Upper-Convected Time Derivative
In this work, new finite difference schemes are presented for dealing with the upper-convected time derivative in the context of the generalized Lie derivative. The upper-convected time derivative, which is usually encountered in the constitutive equation ...
NonReversible Sampling Schemes on Submanifolds
Calculating averages with respect to probability measures on submanifolds is often necessary in various application areas such as molecular dynamics, computational statistical mechanics and Bayesian statistics. In recent years, various numerical schemes ...
Approximation of Smoothness Classes by Deep Rectifier Networks
We consider approximation rates of sparsely connected deep rectified linear unit (ReLU) and rectified power unit (RePU) neural networks for functions in Besov spaces $B^\alpha_{q}(L^p)$ in arbitrary dimension $d$, on general domains. We show that deep rectifier ...
Error Estimate of Unconditionally Stable and Decoupled Linear Positivity-Preserving FEM for the Chemotaxis-Stokes Equations
In this paper, we analyze the error estimate of the unconditionally stable and decoupled linear positivity-preserving finite element method (FEM) for solving the chemotaxis-Stokes equations. First, via smoothing the step function in the equation, we study ...
Numerical Maximization of the p-Laplacian Energy of a Two-Phase Material
For a diffusion problem modeled by the $p$-Laplacian operator, we are interested in obtaining numerically the two-phase material which maximizes the internal energy. We assume that the amount of the best material is limited. In the framework of a relaxed ...
Corrigendum: Error Estimates for Galerkin Approximations of the Serre Equations
This is a corrigendum to the article “Error estimates for Galerkin approximations of the Serre equations” by D. C. Antonopoulos, V. A. Dougalis, and D. E. Mitsotakis, SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 55 (2017), pp. 841--868.
