Numerical approach to L₁-problems with the second order elliptic operators

Publication date: 21 December 2007

Abstract: For a second order differential operator

on a bounded domain

D

with the Dirichlet boundary conditions on

p a r t i a l D

there exists the inverse

T (l a m b d a, A) = (l a m b d a I + A)^{- 1}

in

L_{1} (D)

. If

m u

is a Radon (probability) measure on Borel algebra of subsets of

D

, then

T (l a m b d a, A) m u i n L_{p} (D), p i n [1, d / (d - 1))

. We construct the numerical approximations to

u = T (l a m b d a, A) m u

in two steps. In the first one we construct grid-solutions

and in the second step we embed grid-solutions into the linear space of hat functions

u (n) i n d o t W_{p}^{1} (D)

. The strong convergence to the original solutions

u

is established in

L_{p} (D)

and the weak convergence in

d o t W_{p}^{1} (D)

.
