Error Estimates of Mixed Finite Element Approximations for a Class of Fourth Order Elliptic Control Problems
In this paper, we consider the error estimates of the numerical solutions of a class of fourth order linear-quadratic elliptic optimal control problems by using mixed finite element methods. The state and co-state are approximated by the order k Raviart-Thomas mixed finite element spaces and the control variable is approximated by piecewise polynomials of order k (k ≥ 1). L and L-error estimate...

In this paper, we investigate residual-based a posteriori error estimates for the hp finite element approximation of semilinear Neumann boundary elliptic optimal control problems. By using the hp finite element approximation for both the state and the co-state and the hp discontinuous Galerkin finite element approximation for the control, we derive a posteriori error bounds in L2-H1 norms for t...

We derive a posteriori error estimates in the L∞((0, T ];L∞(Ω)) norm for approximations of solutions to linear parabolic equations. Using the elliptic reconstruction technique introduced by Makridakis and Nochetto and heat kernel estimates for linear parabolic problems, we first prove a posteriori bounds in the maximum norm for semidiscrete finite element approximations. We then establish a pos...

Abstract. We derive a posteriori error estimates in the L∞((0, T ];L∞(Ω)) norm for approximations of solutions to linear parabolic equations. Using the elliptic reconstruction technique introduced by Makridakis and Nochetto and heat kernel estimates for linear parabolic problems, we first prove a posteriori bounds in the maximum norm for semidiscrete finite element approximations.

متن کاملError estimates for finite element approximations of nonlinear monotone elliptic problems with application to numerical homogenization
We consider a finite element method (FEM) with arbitrary polynomial degree for nonlinear monotone elliptic problems. Using a linear elliptic projection, we first give a new short proof of the optimal convergence rate of the FEM in the L norm. We then derive optimal a priori error estimates in the H and L norm for a FEM with variational crimes due to numerical integration. As an application we d...
