Two Numerical Methods for the elliptic Monge-Ampère equation
The numerical solution of the elliptic Monge-Ampère Partial Differential Equation has been a subject of increasing interest recently [Glowinski, in 6th International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics, ICIAM 07, Invited Lectures (2009) 155–192; Oliker and Prussner, Numer.

Two preconditioners based on the multi-level splitting of finite element spaces.
Two simple derivations of universal bounds for the C.B.S. inequality constant
Universal bounds for the constant in the strengthened Cauchy-Bunyakowski-Schwarz inequality for piecewise linear-linear and piecewise quadratic-linear finite element spaces in 2 space dimensions are derived. The bounds hold for arbitrary shaped triangles, or equivalently, arbitrary matrix coefficients for both the scalar diffusion problems and the elasticity theory equations.
Two-grid finite-element schemes for the steady Navier-Stokes problem in polyhedra.
Two-grid finite-element schemes for the transient Navier-Stokes problem
We semi-discretize in space a time-dependent Navier-Stokes system on a three-dimensional polyhedron by finite-elements schemes defined on two grids. In the first step, the fully non-linear problem is semi-discretized on a coarse grid, with mesh-size . In the second step, the problem is linearized by substituting into the non-linear term, the velocity computed at step one, and the linearized problem is semi-discretized on a fine grid with mesh-size . This approach is motivated by the fact that,...
Two-grid finite-element schemes for the transient Navier-Stokes problem
We semi-discretize in space a time-dependent Navier-Stokes system on a three-dimensional polyhedron by finite-elements schemes defined on two grids. In the first step, the fully non-linear problem is semi-discretized on a coarse grid, with mesh-size H. In the second step, the problem is linearized by substituting into the non-linear term, the velocity uH computed at step one, and the linearized problem is semi-discretized on a fine grid with mesh-size h. This approach is motivated by the fact that,...

Two-level stabilized nonconforming finite element method for the Stokes equations
In this article, we present a new two-level stabilized nonconforming finite elements method for the two dimensional Stokes problem. This method is based on a local Gauss integration technique and the mixed nonconforming finite element of the pair (nonconforming linear element for the velocity, conforming linear element for the pressure). The two-level stabilized finite element method involves solving a small stabilized Stokes problem on a coarse mesh with mesh size and a large stabilized Stokes...
Two-scale FEM for homogenization problems
The convergence of a two-scale FEM for elliptic problems in divergence form with coefficients and geometries oscillating at length scale is analyzed. Full elliptic regularity independent of is shown when the solution is viewed as mapping from the slow into the fast scale. Two-scale FE spaces which are able to resolve the scale of the solution with work independent of and without analytical homogenization are introduced. Robust in error estimates for the two-scale FE spaces are proved....
Two-scale FEM for homogenization problems
The convergence of a two-scale FEM for elliptic problems in divergence form with coefficients and geometries oscillating at length scale ε << 1 is analyzed. Full elliptic regularity independent of ε is shown when the solution is viewed as mapping from the slow into the fast scale. Two-scale FE spaces which are able to resolve the ε scale of the solution with work independent of ε and without analytical homogenization are introduced. Robust in ε error estimates for the two-scale FE spaces...
Two-sided a posteriori error estimates for linear elliptic problems with mixed boundary conditions
The paper is devoted to verification of accuracy of approximate solutions obtained in computer simulations. This problem is strongly related to a posteriori error estimates, giving computable bounds for computational errors and detecting zones in the solution domain where such errors are too large and certain mesh refinements should be performed. A mathematical model consisting of a linear elliptic (reaction-diffusion) equation with a mixed Dirichlet/Neumann/Robin boundary condition is considered...
Two-sided bounds of eigenvalues of second- and fourth-order elliptic operators
This article presents an idea in the finite element methods (FEMs) for obtaining two-sided bounds of exact eigenvalues. This approach is based on the combination of nonconforming methods giving lower bounds of the eigenvalues and a postprocessing technique using conforming finite elements. Our results hold for the second and fourth-order problems defined on two-dimensional domains. First, we list analytic and experimental results concerning triangular and rectangular nonconforming elements which...
Two-sided bounds of the discretization error for finite elements
We derive an optimal lower bound of the interpolation error for linear finite elements on a bounded two-dimensional domain. Using the supercloseness between the linear interpolant of the true solution of an elliptic problem and its finite element solution on uniform partitions, we further obtain two-sided a priori bounds of the discretization error by means of the interpolation error. Two-sided bounds for bilinear finite elements are given as well. Numerical tests illustrate our theoretical analysis....

Two-sided symmetric condition in the analysis of magnetic fields with permanent magnets
Mathematical treatment of a planar magnetic field excited by permanent magnets is presented. A special two-sided condition for differential magnetic reluctivity is introduced to prove the unique existence of both the weak and the approximate solutions and also a certain error estimate. Notes to numerical algorithm and practical applications are given.

In this note we study the periodic homogenization problem for a particular bidimensional selfadjoint elliptic operator of the second order. Theoretical and numerical considerations allow us to conjecture explicit formulae for the coefficients of the homogenized operator.
