Abstract

For a second order differential operator A(\msx)=a(\msx)+b(\msx)+(\msb(\msx))A(\msx) =-\nabla a(\msx)\nabla + b'(\msx)\nabla+ \nabla \big(\msb''(\msx) \cdot\big) on a bounded domain DD with the Dirichlet boundary conditions on D\partial D there exists the inverse T(λ,A)=(λI+A)1T(\lambda, A)= (\lambda I+A)^{-1} in L1(D)L_1(D). If μ\mu is a Radon (probability) measure on Borel algebra of subsets of DD, then T(λ,A)μLp(D),p[1,d/(d1))T(\lambda, A)\mu \in L_p(D), p \in [1, d/(d-1)). We construct the numerical approximations to u=T(λ,A)μu =T(\lambda, A)\mu in two steps. In the first one we construct grid-solutions un{\bf u}_n and in the second step we embed grid-solutions into the linear space of hat functions u(n)W˙p1(D)u(n) \in \dot{W}_p^1(D). The strong convergence to the original solutions uu is established in Lp(D)L_p(D) and the weak convergence in W˙p1(D)\dot{W}_p^1(D).
