The Monge-Ampère equation

Michael Neilan, Abner J. Salgado, Wujun Zhang

We review recent advances in the numerical analysis of the Monge-Ampère equation. Various computational techniques are discussed including wide-stencil finite difference schemes, t…

Rates of convergence in -norm for the Monge-Ampère equation

Michael Neilan, Wujun Zhang

We develop discrete -norm error estimates for the Oliker-Prussner method applied to the Monge-Ampère equation. This is obtained by extending discrete Alexandroff estimates a…

The Ericksen Model of Liquid Crystals with Colloidal and Electric Effects

Ricardo H. Nochetto, Shawn W. Walker, Wujun Zhang

We present a robust discretization of the Ericksen model of liquid crystals with variable degree of orientation coupled with colloidal effects and electric fields. The total energy…

Two-Scale Method for the Monge-Ampère Equation: Convergence to the Viscosity Solution

Ricardo H. Nochetto, Dimitrios Ntogkas, Wujun Zhang

We propose a two-scale finite element method for the Monge-Ampère equation with Dirichlet boundary condition in dimension and prove that it converges to the viscosity solut…

Pointwise rates of convergence for the Oliker-Prussner method for the Monge-Ampère equation

Ricardo H. Nochetto, Wujun Zhang

We study the Oliker-Prussner method exploiting its geometric nature. We derive discrete stability and continuous dependence estimates in the max-norm by using a discrete Alexandrof…

Numerical analysis of strongly nonlinear PDEs

Michael Neilan, Abner J. Salgado, Wujun Zhang

We review the construction and analysis of numerical methods for strongly nonlinear PDEs, with an emphasis on convex and nonconvex fully nonlinear equations and the convergence to…

A finite element method for nematic liquid crystals with variable degree of orientation

Ricardo H. Nochetto, Shawn W. Walker, Wujun Zhang

We consider the simplest one-constant model, put forward by J. Ericksen, for nematic liquid crystals with variable degree of orientation. The equilibrium state is described by a di…

Finite element approximation of the Isaacs equation

Abner J. Salgado, Wujun Zhang

We propose and analyze a two-scale finite element method for the Isaacs equation. The fine scale is given by the mesh size whereas the coarse scale is dictated by…

Discrete ABP Estimate and Convergence Rates for Linear Elliptic Equations in Non-divergence Form

Ricardo H. Nochetto, Wujun Zhang

We design a two-scale finite element method (FEM) for linear elliptic PDEs in non-divergence form in a bounded but not necessarily convex domain and st…

An analysis of HDG methods for convection dominated diffusion problems

Guosheng Fu, Weifeng Qiu, Wujun Zhang

In this paper, we establish an a priori error analysis of HDG methods with two types of stabilization parameter applied to convection dominated diffusion problem. We show that, usi…
