Hall, Deckert and Wiseman (2014) recently proposed that quantum theory can be understood as the continuum limit of a deterministic theory in which there is a large, but finite, number of classical "worlds." A resulting Gaussian limit…

We investigate the error of the (semidiscrete) Galerkin method applied to a semilinear subdiffusion equation in the presence of a nonsmooth initial data. The diffusion coefficient is allowed to depend on time. It is well-known that in such…
