Mixed Problems for Plane Parabolic Systems and Boundary Integral Equations

VARIATIONAL DISCRETIZATION AND MIXED METHODS FOR SEMILINEAR PARABOLIC OPTIMAL CONTROL PROBLEMS WITH INTEGRAL CONSTRAINT

The aim of this work is to investigate the variational discretization and mixed finite element methods for optimal control problem governed by semi linear parabolic equations with integral constraint. The state and co-state are approximated by the lowest order Raviart-Thomas mixed finite element spaces and the control is not discreted. Optimal error estimates in L2 are established for the state...

Nyström Discretization of parabolic Boundary Integral Equations

A Nyström method for the discretization of thermal layer potentials is proposed and analyzed. The method is based on considering the potentials as generalized Abel integral operators in time, where the kernel is a time dependent surface integral operator. The time discretization is the trapezoidal rule with a corrected weight at the endpoint to compensate for singularities of the integrand. The...

Spline collocation for convolutional parabolic boundary integral equations

We consider spline collocation methods for a class of parabolic pseudodifferential operators. We show optimal order convergence results in a large scale of anisotropic Sobolev spaces. The results cover for example the case of the single layer heat operator equation when the spatial domain is a disc.
