We show that if $X$ is a Banach space whose dual $X^{*}$ has an equivalent locally uniformly rotund (LUR) norm, then for every open convex $U\subseteq X$, for every $\varepsilon >0$, and for every continuous and convex function $f:U…

The idea of best approximation in linear n-normed space is presented and some examples showing various possibilities of best approximations in linear n-normed space is given. Also, we study strictly convex n-norm and enquire about the…

In this manuscript we present an approach to analyze the discontinuous Galerkin solution for general quasilinear elliptic problems. This approach is sufficiently general to extend most of the well-known discretization schemes, including…

We obtain sharp approximation results for into nearisometries between Lp spaces and nearisometries into a Hilbert space. Our main theorem is the optimal approximation result for nearsurjective nearisometries between general Banach spaces.

These lecture notes introduce the Galerkin method to approximate solutions to partial differential and integral equations. We begin with some analysis background to introduce this method in a Hilbert Space setting, and subsequently…

This paper is concerned with superconvergence properties of the direct discontinuous Galerkin (DDG) method for two-dimensional nonlinear convection-diffusion equations. By using the idea of correction function, we prove that, for any…

The solution $u$ of an elliptic interface problem in a domain $\Omega$ is often smooth away from the interface $\Gamma\subset \Omega$, but its gradient is discontinuous across $\Gamma$, resulting in low regularity; in particular, $u \notin…

We consider parabolic evolution equations with Lipschitz continuous and strongly monotone spatial operators. By introducing an additional variable, we construct an equivalent system where the operator is a Lipschitz continuous mapping from…

A general analysis framework is presented in this paper for many different types of finite element methods (including various discontinuous Galerkin methods). For second order elliptic equation, this framework employs $4$ different…

Structure constants of the $su(N)$ ($N$ odd) Lie algebras converge when N goes to infinity to the structure constants of the Lie algebra {\it sdiff}$(T^2)$ of the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of a 2D torus. Thus Zeitlin and…

This work extends the discrete compactness results of Walkington (SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 47(6):4680--4710, 2010) for high-order discontinuous Galerkin time discretizations of parabolic problems to more general function space settings. In…

We examine how stationary solutions to Galerkin approximations of the Navier--Stokes equations behave in the limit as the Grashof number $G$ tends to $\infty$. An appropriate scaling is used to place the Grashof number as a new coefficient…

This paper addresses the problem of improving properties of a linear operator u in $l_2^n$ by restricting it onto coordinate subspaces. We discuss how to reduce the norm of u by a random coordinate restriction, how to approximate u by a…

We resolve a longstanding open problem in the computational modeling of nonlinear plates by introducing a numerical method that exactly enforces the isometry constraint, namely, that the first fundamental form of the mid-surface coincides…

In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem for the Benjamin-Ono-Burgers equation $\partial_t u-\epsilon \partial_x^2 u+\mathcal{H}\partial_x^2u+u u_x=0$, where $\mathcal{H}$ denotes the Hilbert transform. We obtain that it is uniformly…

Variational problems under uniform quasiconvex constraints on the gradient are studied. In particular, existence of solutions to such problems is proved as well as existence of lagrange multipliers associated to the uniform constraint. They…

We study the hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method for the spatial discretization of time fractional diffusion models with Caputo derivative of order $0<\alpha<1$. For each time $t \in [0,T]$, the HDG approximations are taken to…

We prove that a Banach space has the uniform approximation property with proportional growth of the uniformity function iff it is a weak Hilbert space.

We study an iterative Galerkin method for quasilinear elliptic problems in the Browder-Minty setting. The resulting discrete nonlinear systems are solved by linearization via a (damped) Zarantonello iteration. Unlike prior work, adaptive…

The Galerkin method is often employed for numerical integration of evolutionary equations, such as the Navier-Stokes equation or the magnetic induction equation. Application of the method requires solving an equation of the form $P(Av-f)=0$…
