Maximum Norm Analysis of Overlapping Nonmatching Grid Discretizations of Elliptic Equations

From MaRDI portal





The Dirichlet problem on a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^2\) or \(\mathbb{R}^3\) is considered for the linear ellipic equation \(-\Delta u+\vec b(x)\nabla u+c(x)u=f(x)\) under some additional conditions. The domain is a union of several overlapping subdomains on which some nonmatching grids are used to obtain difference approximations. It is important that the schemes satisfy a strong discrete maximum principle and that an analog of continuity of the approximations across the subdomain boundaries is required. The authors manage to obtain the global dicretization error estimate of asymptotically optimal type in the sense of the discrete maximum norm. They also consider preconditioned iterative methods with model operators constructed on the base of difference additive Schwarz iterations. Fairly interesting numerical examples are presented as well.
