Meshfree method for solving the elliptic Monge-Ampere equation with Dirichlet boundary

We prove the convergence of meshfree method for solving the elliptic Monge-Ampere equation with Dirichlet boundary on the bounded domain. L2 error is obtained based on the kernel-based trial spaces generated by the compactly supported radial basis functions. We obtain the convergence result when the testing discretization is finer than the trial discretization. The convergence rate depend on the regularity of the solution, the smoothness of the computing domain, and the approximation of scaled kernel-based spaces. The presented convergence theory covers a wide range of kernel-based trial spaces including stationary approximation and non-stationary approximation. An extension to non-Dirichlet boundary condition is in a forthcoming paper.
