Rate of convergence of mollified distributions in Besov spaces with negative regularity
Given a standard mollifier $\rho_\delta$ and a distribution $ u \in B^\alpha_{ p, p}$ with $\alpha<0$, $p \in [1, \infty]$ and $B^\alpha_{p,p}$ is a not-homogeneous Besov space, I'm trying to prove ...

Galerkin scheme in $H^s_0(G)\subset L^2(G)\subset H^{-s}(G)$ ($s>0$)
What basis functions are usually choosen if one attempts to conduct a Galerkin finite element method given an evolution triplet $H^s_0(G)\subset L^2(G)\subset H^{-s}(G)$. Where $G$ is a sufficiently ...

Formulation of multipoint constraints using Lagrange multipliers for a time dependent problem (with the Finite Element Method)
Intro
Suppose we have the following static linear equations (e.g. of an elastostatic problem):
$$\mathbf{K}\boldsymbol{u}=\boldsymbol{f}$$
We want a multipoint constraint of the type
$$\boldsymbol{\...

Convergence of numerical scheme for HJB equation
Convergence of numerical scheme for HJB equation has been widely studied, the key paper is the Barles's one. Essentially, the convergence is guarenteed if the scheme is:
Consistent
Stable
Monotony

How to solve with FEM a semilinear elliptic equation?
I searched in many books regarding FEM how to solve semilinear elliptic equation, but I did not find too many things. They mostly treat linear and simple problems. For example in P.Ciarlet-The finite ...

Are there spectral Galerkin methods for PDE of the form $\partial_tu=\nabla\cdot f(\nabla u)\nabla u$?
Question is in the title. The nonlinearity due to the term $f(\nabla u)$ makes it difficult to directly apply the spectral Galerkin method as it can be done for PDE of the form $\partial_tu=\nabla\...

Inconsistency in determinability of the solution of a linear first order PDE
Consider the following differential equation:
$$\frac{\partial u(x,t)}{\partial t} = - \frac{\partial u(x,t)}{\partial x} + u(x,t) \label{1}\tag{1}$$
with $u(x,0)=f(x)$. The solution of \eqref{1}, ...
