The discrete maximum principle for Galerkin solutions of elliptic problems
This paper provides equivalent characterization of the discrete maximum principle for Galerkin solutions of general linear elliptic problems. The characterization is formulated in terms of the discrete Green’s function and the elliptic projection of the boundary data. This general concept is applied to the analysis of the discrete maximum principle for the higher-order finite elements in one-di...
متن کاملA maximum principle for linear elliptic systems with discontinuous coefficients
We prove a maximum principle for linear second order elliptic systems in divergence form with discontinuous coefficients under a suitable condition on the dispersion of the eigenvalues of the coefficients matrix.
متن کاملVariational Methods for Nonlinear Elliptic Eigenvalue Problems
In the present note, we give a simple general proof for the existence of solutions of the following two types of variational problems: PROBLEM A. To minimize fa F(x> u, • • • , Du)dx over a subspace VofW>*(tt). PROBLEM B. TO minimize ƒ« F(x, w, • • • , Du)dx for u in V with / a G(x, u, • • • , D^u)dx^c. The solution of the first problem yields a weak solution of a corresponding elliptic boundar...
متن کاملVariational principle for general diffusion problems
We employ the Monge-Kantorovich mass transfer theory to study existence of solutions for a large class of parabolic partial differential equations. We deal with non-homogeneous nonlinear diffusion problems (of Fokker-Planck type) with time dependent coefficients. This work greatly extends the applicability of known techniques based on constructing weak solutions by approximation with time-inter...
متن کاملMaximum Principle for Singular Stochastic Control Problems
In this paper, an optimal singular stochastic control problem is considered. For this model, it is obtained a general stochastic maximum principle by using a time transformation. This is the first version of the stochastic maximum principle that covers the singular control problem in the nonlinear case.
