Local interpolation by a quadratic Lagrange finite element in 1D

Josef Dalík (2006)

Archivum Mathematicum

We analyse the error of interpolation of functions from the space H 3 ( a , c ) in the nodes a < b < c of a regular quadratic Lagrange finite element in 1D by interpolants from the local function space of this finite element. We show that the order of the error depends on the way in which the mutual positions of nodes a , b , c change as the length of interval [ a , c ] approaches zero.

Massive parallel implementation of ODE solvers

Fischer, Cyril (2013)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

The presented contribution maps the possibilities of exploitation of the massive parallel computational hardware (namely GPU) for solution of the initial value problems of ordinary differential equations. Two cases are discussed: parallel solution of a single ODE and parallel execution of scalar ODE solvers. Whereas the advantages of the special architecture in the case of a single ODE are problematic, repeated solution of a single ODE for different data can profit from the parallel...

Mathematical analysis of the optimizing acquisition and retention over time problem

Adi Ditkowski (2009)

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

While making informed decisions regarding investments in customer retention and acquisition becomes a pressing managerial issue, formal models and analysis, which may provide insight into this topic, are still scarce. In this study we examine two dynamic models for optimal acquisition and retention models of a monopoly, the total cost and the cost per customer models. These models are analytically analyzed using classical, direct, methods and asymptotic expansions (for the total cost model). In...
