Localization of elliptic multiscale problems

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: This note constructs a local generalized finite element basis for elliptic problems with heterogeneous and highly varying coefficients. The basis functions are solutions of local problems on vertex patches. The error of the corresponding generalized finite element method decays exponentially with respect to the number of element layers in the patches. Hence, on a uniform mesh of size H, patches of diameter Hlog(1/H) are sufficient to preserve a linear rate of convergence in H without any pre-asymptotic or resonance effects. The analysis does not rely on regularity of the solution or scale separation in the coefficient. This result motivates new and justifies old classes of variational multiscale methods.
