The 1-Harmonic Flow with Values into $\mathbb S^{1}$
2013
We introduce a notion of solution for the $1$-harmonic flow, i.e., the formal gradient flow of the total variation functional with respect to the $L^2$-distance, from a domain of $\mathbb R^m$ into a geodesically convex subset of an $N$-sphere. For such a notion, under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, we prove both existence and uniqueness of solutions when the target space is a semicircle and the existence of solutions when the target space is a circle and the initial datum has no jumps of an “angle” larger than $\pi$. Earlier results in [J. W. Barrett, X. Feng, and A. Prohl, SIAM J. Math. Anal., 40 (2008), pp. 1471--1498] and [X. Feng, Calc. Var. Partial Differential Equations, 37…
On the structure of certain ultradistributions
2009
Let "o" be a nonempty open subset of the k-dimensional euclidean space Rk. In this paper we show that, if S is an ultradistribution in "o", belonging to a class of Roumieu type stable under differential operators, then there is a family f , 2 Nk 0, of elements of L1 loc("o") such that S is represented in the formP 2Nk 0 D"a"f "a". Some other results on the structure of certain ultradistributions of Roumieu type are also given.

On finite element approximation of the gradient for solution of Poisson equation
1981
A nonconforming mixed finite element method is presented for approximation of ?w with Δw=f,w| r =0. Convergence of the order $$\left\| {\nabla w - u_h } \right\|_{0,\Omega } = \mathcal{O}(h^2 )$$ is proved, when linear finite elements are used. Only the standard regularity assumption on triangulations is needed.
Iterative approximation to a coincidence point of two mappings
2015
In this article two methods for approximating the coincidence point of two mappings are studied and moreover, rates of convergence for both methods are given. These results are illustrated by several examples, in particular we apply such results to study the convergence and their rate of convergence of these methods to the solution of a nonlinear integral equation and of a nonlinear differential equation.
On optimal estimates for the solutions of linear difference equations on the circle
1976
A linear difference equation arising in the proof of Moser's twist mapping theorem is solved and optimal estimates for the solution are established.
Splineapproximationen von beliebigem Defekt zur numerischen L�sung gew�hnlicher Differentialgleichungen. Teil III
1980
In the first part [5] a general procedure is presented to obtain polynomial spline approximations of arbitrary defect for the solution of the initial value problem of ordinary differential equations. The essential result is a divergence theorem in dependence of the polynomial degree and the defect of the spline functions. In this second part the convergent procedures are investigated and two convergence theorems are proved. Furthermore the question is treated, whether the convergent procedures are appropriate for the numerical solution of stiff equations. The paper is finished by a convergence theorem for a procedure producing spline approximations in a natural way by the discrete approxima…
Shooting methods for 1D steady-state free boundary problems
1993
AbstractIn this note, we present two numerical methods based on shooting methods to solve steady-state diffusion-absorption models.
Exploring chemical reactivity of complex systems with path-based coordinates: role of the distance metric.
2014
Path-based reaction coordinates constitute a valuable tool for free-energy calculations in complex processes. When a reference path is defined by means of collective variables, a nonconstant distance metric that incorporates the nonorthonormality of these variables should be taken into account. In this work, we show that, accounting for the correct metric tensor, these kind of variables can provide iso-hypersurfaces that coincide with the iso-committor surfaces and that activation free energies equal the value that would be obtained if the committor function itself were used as reaction coordinate. The advantages of the incorporation of the variable metric tensor are illustrated with the an…
