Remarks relevant to classical maximum principles.
We consider the general degenerate parabolic equation :We suppose that the flux is continuous, is nondecreasing continuous and both functions are not necessarily Lipschitz. We prove the existence of the renormalized solution of the associated Cauchy problem for initial data and source term. We establish the uniqueness of this type of solution under a structure condition and an assumption on the modulus of continuity of . The novelty of this work is that , , , , are not Lipschitz...
In this paper we study a control problem for elliptic nonlinear monotone problems with Dirichlet boundary conditions where the control variables are the coefficients of the equation and the open set where the partial differential problem is studied.
In this work we derive a posteriori error estimates based on equations residuals for the heat equation with discontinuous diffusivity coefficients. The estimates are based on a fully discrete scheme based on conforming finite elements in each time slab and on the A-stable -scheme with . Following remarks of [Picasso, Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Engrg. 167 (1998) 223–237; Verfürth, Calcolo 40 (2003) 195–212] it is easy to identify a time-discretization error-estimator and a space-discretization...

This article discusses the numerical approximation of time dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations. Optimal error estimates which are robust with respect to a large Ginzburg-Landau parameter are established for a semi-discrete in time and a fully discrete approximation scheme. The proofs rely on an asymptotic expansion of the exact solution and a stability result for degree-one Ginzburg-Landau vortices. The error bounds prove that degree-one vortices can be approximated robustly while unstable higher...
