Alternating direction Galerkin method with capacitance matrix for the parabolic problem with natural boundary condition
Two-scale convergence is a special weak convergence used in homogenization theory. Besides the original definition by Nguetseng and Allaire two alternative definitions are introduced and compared. They enable us to weaken requirements on the admissibility of test functions . Properties and examples are added.
We prove an abstract version of concentration compactness principle in Hilbert space and show its applications to a range of elliptic problems on unbounded domains.
We prove that the theorem of Egorov, on the canonical transformation of symbols of pseudodifferential operators conjugated by Fourier integral operators, can be sharpened. The main result is that the statement of Egorov's theorem remains true if, instead of just considering the principal symbols in Sm/Sm-1 for the pseudodifferential operators, one uses refined principal symbols in Sm/Sm-2, which for classical operators correspond simply to the principal plus the subprincipal symbol, and can generally...
In this article we introduce an adaptive multi-level method in space and time for convection diffusion problems. The scheme is based on a multi-level spatial splitting and the use of different time-steps. The temporal discretization relies on the characteristics method. We derive an a posteriori error estimate and design a corresponding adaptive algorithm. The efficiency of the multi-level method is illustrated by numerical experiments, in particular for a convection-dominated problem.
