چکیده
We prove various pointwise estimates for solutions of linear elliptic difference inequalities with random coefficients. These estimates include discrete versions of the maximum principle of Aleksandrov and Harnack inequalities and Holder estimates of Krylov and Safonov for elliptic differential operators with bounded coefficients.

Green’s Functions for Elliptic and Parabolic Equations with Random Coefficients
This paper is concerned with linear uniformly elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations in divergence form. It is assumed that the coefficients of the equations are random variables, constant in time. The Green’s functions for the equations are then random variables. Regularity properties for expectation values of Green’s functions are obtained. In particular, it is shown that the e...
متن کاملStrong Convergence to the Homogenized Limit of Elliptic Equations with Random Coefficients
Consider a discrete uniformly elliptic divergence form equation on the d dimensional lattice Zd with random coefficients. It has previously been shown that if the random environment is translational invariant, then the averaged Green’s function together with its first and second differences, are bounded by the corresponding quantities for the constant coefficient discrete elliptic equation. It ...
متن کاملKernel-based Collocation Methods versus Galerkin Finite Element Methods for Approximating Elliptic Stochastic Partial Differential Equations
We compare a kernel-based collocation method (meshfree approximation method) with a Galerkin finite element method for solving elliptic stochastic partial differential equations driven by Gaussian noise. The kernel-based collocation solution is a linear combination of reproducing kernels obtained from related differential and boundary operators centered at chosen collocation points. Its random ...
متن کاملA Kernel-based Collocation Method for Elliptic Partial Differential Equations with Random Coefficients
This paper is an extension of previous work where we laid the foundation for the kernel-based collocation solution of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs), but dealt only with the simpler problem of right-hand-side Gaussian noises. In the present paper we show that kernel-based collocation methods can be used to approximate the solutions of high-dimensional elliptic partial differe...
متن کاملRegularity of Solutions of Obstacle Problems for Elliptic Equations with Oblique Boundary Conditions
Much has been written about various obstacle problems in the context of variational inequalities. In particular, if the obstacle is smooth enough and if the coefficients of associated elliptic operator satisfy appropriate conditions, then the solution of the obstacle problem has continuous first derivatives. For a general class of obstacle problems, we show here that this regularity is attained...
