This paper is concerned with the analysis and implementation of spectral Galerkin methods for a class of Fokker-Planck equations that arises from the kinetic theory of dilute polymers. A relevant feature of the class of equations under consideration from the viewpoint of mathematical analysis and numerical approximation is the presence of an unbounded drift coefficient, involving a smooth convex potential that is equal to +∞ along the boundary ∂ of the computational domain .

We discuss a family of discontinuous Petrov–Galerkin (DPG) schemes for quite general partial differential operators. The starting point of our analysis is the DPG method introduced by [Demkowicz , 49 (2011) 1788–1809; Zitelli , 230 (2011) 2406–2432]. This discretization results in a sparse positive definite linear algebraic system which can be obtained from a saddle point problem by an element-wise Schur complement reduction applied to the test space. Here, we show that the abstract...
