چکیده
Spherical splines are used to define approximate solutions to strongly elliptic pseudodifferential equations on the unit sphere. These equations arise from geodesy. The approximate solutions are found by using Galerkin method. We prove optimal convergence (in Sobolev norms) of the approximate solution by spherical splines to the exact solution. Our numerical results underlie the theoretical result.

متن کاملCollocation Solutions to Pseudodifferential Equations of Negative Orders on the Sphere Using Spherical Radial Basis Functions
Abstract. Spherical radial basis functions are used to define approximate solutions to pseudodifferential equations of negative orders on the unit sphere. These equations arise from geodesy. The approximate solutions are found by the collocation method. A salient feature of our approach in this paper is a simple error analysis for the collocation method using the same argument as that for the G...
متن کاملStrongly elliptic pseudodifferential equations on the sphere with radial basis functions
Spherical radial basis functions are used to define approximate solutions to strongly elliptic pseudodifferential equations on the unit sphere. These equations arise from geodesy. The approximate solutions are found by the Galerkin and collocation methods. A salient feature of the paper is a unified theory for error analysis of both approximation methods.

متن کاملPreconditioners for pseudodifferential equations on the sphere with radial basis functions
In a previous paper a preconditioning strategy based on overlapping domain decomposition was applied to the Galerkin approximation of elliptic partial differential equations on the sphere. In this paper the methods are extended to more general pseudodifferential equations on the sphere, using as before spherical radial basis functions for the approximation space, and again preconditioning the i...
