On the necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of the difference schemes for the general boundary value problem for the linear systems of ordinary differential equations

Malkhaz Ashordia (2021)

Mathematica Bohemica

We consider the numerical solvability of the general linear boundary value problem for the systems of linear ordinary differential equations. Along with the continuous boundary value problem we consider the sequence of the general discrete boundary value problems, i.e. the corresponding general difference schemes. We establish the effective necessary and sufficient (and effective sufficient) conditions for the convergence of the schemes. Moreover, we consider the stability of the solutions of general...

On the Newton-Kantorovich theorem and nonlinear finite element methods

Ioannis K. Argyros (2009)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Using a weaker version of the Newton-Kantorovich theorem, we provide a discretization result to find finite element solutions of elliptic boundary value problems. Our hypotheses are weaker and under the same computational cost lead to finer estimates on the distances involved and a more precise information on the location of the solution than before.

On the notion of Jacobi fields in constrained calculus of variations

Enrico Massa, Enrico Pagani (2016)

Communications in Mathematics

In variational calculus, the minimality of a given functional under arbitrary deformations with fixed end-points is established through an analysis of the so called second variation. In this paper, the argument is examined in the context of constrained variational calculus, assuming piecewise differentiable extremals, commonly referred to as extremaloids. The approach relies on the existence of a fully covariant representation of the second variation of the action functional, based on a family of...

On the number of iterations required by Von Neumann addition

Rudolf Grübel, Anke Reimers (2001)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

We investigate the number of iterations needed by an addition algorithm due to Burks et al. if the input is random. Several authors have obtained results on the average case behaviour, mainly using analytic techniques based on generating functions. Here we take a more probabilistic view which leads to a limit theorem for the distribution of the random number of steps required by the algorithm and also helps to explain the limiting logarithmic periodicity as a simple discretization phenomenon.

On the numerical approximation of first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations

Rémi Abgrall, Vincent Perrier (2007)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Some methods for the numerical approximation of time-dependent and steady first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations are reviewed. Most of the discussion focuses on conformal triangular-type meshes, but we show how to extend this to the most general meshes. We review some first-order monotone schemes and also high-order ones specially dedicated to steady problems.

On the numerical modeling of deformations of pressurized martensitic thin films

Pavel Bělík, Timothy Brule, Mitchell Luskin (2001)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We propose, analyze, and compare several numerical methods for the computation of the deformation of a pressurized martensitic thin film. Numerical results have been obtained for the hysteresis of the deformation as the film transforms reversibly from austenite to martensite.

On the numerical performance of a sharp a posteriori error estimator for some nonlinear elliptic problems

Balázs Kovács (2014)

Applications of Mathematics

Karátson and Korotov developed a sharp upper global a posteriori error estimator for a large class of nonlinear problems of elliptic type, see J. Karátson, S. Korotov (2009). The goal of this paper is to check its numerical performance, and to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of this estimator on the base of quasilinear elliptic equations of the second order. The focus will be on the technical and numerical aspects and on the components of the error estimation, especially on the adequate...
