The low quadrupole of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), measured by COBE and confirmed by WMAP, has generated much discussion recently. We point out that the well-known correlation between temperature and polarization anisotropies of…
We study the problem $-\Delta u = \gamma$, where $\gamma$ is a singular measure, with support on a curve or a point. We prove that optimal rates of convergence for the finite element method can be obtained using properly graded meshes. In…
