We introduce a novel technique for proving global strong discrete maximum principles for finite element discretizations of linear and semilinear elliptic equations for cases when the common, matrix-based sufficient conditions are not…
The maximum principle forms an important qualitative property of second order elliptic equations, therefore its discrete analogues, the so-called discrete maximum principles (DMPs) have drawn much attention. In this paper DMPs are…
Discrete maximum principles in the approximation of partial differential equations are crucial for the preservation of qualitative properties of physical models. In this work we enforce the discrete maximum principle by performing a simple…
In this paper we investigate maximum principles for functionals defined on solutions to special partial differential equations of elliptic type, extending results by Payne and Philippin. We apply such maximum principles to investigate one…
We investigate strong maximum (and minimum) principles for fully nonlinear second order equations on Riemannian manifolds that are non-totally degenerate and satisfy appropriate scaling conditions. Our results apply to a large class of…
The convergence and optimality of adaptive mixed finite element methods for the Poisson equation are established in this paper. The main difficulty for mixed finite element methods is the lack of minimization principle and thus the failure…
The weak maximum principle of the isoparametric finite element method is proved for the Poisson equation under the Dirichlet boundary condition in a (possibly concave) curvilinear polyhedral domain with edge openings smaller than $\pi$,…
We devise variants of classical nonconforming methods for symmetric elliptic problems. These variants differ from the original ones only by transforming discrete test functions into conforming functions before applying the load functional.…
This work introduces finite element methods for a class of elliptic fully nonlinear partial differential equations. They are based on a minimal residual principle that builds upon the Alexandrov--Bakelman--Pucci estimate. Under rather…
In this paper we are concerned with the maximum principle for quasi-linear backward stochastic partial differential equations (BSPDEs for short) of parabolic type. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of the weak solution to…
The necessity of a Maximum Principle arises naturally when one is interested in the study of qualitative properties of solutions to partial differential equations. In general, to ensure the validity of these kind of principles one has to…
Comparison principles are developed for discrete quasilinear elliptic partial differential equations. We consider the analysis of a class of nonmonotone Leray-Lions problems featuring both nonlinear solution and gradient dependence in the…
This paper studies adaptive first-order least-squares finite element methods for second-order elliptic partial differential equations in non-divergence form. Unlike the classical finite element method which uses weak formulations of PDEs…
This paper concerns with mesh restrictions that are needed to satisfy several important mathematical properties -- maximum principles, comparison principles, and the non-negative constraint -- for a general linear second-order elliptic…
This paper studies formulations of second-order elliptic partial differential equations in nondivergence form on convex domains as equivalent variational problems. The first formulation is that of Smears \& S\"uli [SIAM J.\ Numer.\ Anal.\…
This paper establishes the optimal $H^1$-norm error estimate for a nonstandard finite element method for approximating $H^2$ strong solutions of second order linear elliptic PDEs in non-divergence form with continuous coefficients. To…
In this work, we investigate the numerical approximation of the second order non-autonomous semilnear parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) using the finite element method. To the best of our knowledge, only the linear case is…
In this paper, we present a unified analysis of both convergence and optimality of adaptive mixed finite element methods for a class of problems when the finite element spaces and corresponding a posteriori error estimates under…
This paper is concerned with finite element approximations of $W^{2,p}$ strong solutions of second-order linear elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs) in non-divergence form with continuous coefficients. A nonstandard (primal)…
This paper is concerned with fully discrete finite element methods for approximating variational solutions of nonlinear stochastic elastic wave equations with multiplicative noise. A detailed analysis of the properties of the weak solution…
