A discrete inf-sup condition sufficient for the stability of the discontinuous Galerkin discretization of a well-posed linear problem is established and this allows the proof of local existence and uniqueness of a discrete solution to the non-linear problem with a Banach fixed point theorem. The Newton scheme is locally second-order convergent and appears to be a robust solution strategy up to machine precision. A comprehensive a priori and a posteriori energy-norm error analysis relies on one sufficiently large stabilization parameter and sufficiently fine triangulations. In case the other stabilization parameter degenerates towards infinity, the DGFEM reduces to a novel $C^0$ interior penalty method (IPDG). Moreover, a reliable and efficient a posteriori error analysis immediately follows for the DGFEM of this paper, while the different norms in the known $C^0$-IPDG lead to complications with some non-residual type remaining terms. Numerical experiments confirm the best-approximation results and the equivalence of the error and the error estimators. A related adaptive mesh-refining algorithm leads to optimal empirical convergence rates for a non convex domain.","PeriodicalId":283112,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Numerical Analysis","volume":"198 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114618041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ensemble Kalman filter has become a popular data assimilation scheme due to its simplicity and robustness for a wide range of application areas. Nevertheless, the ensemble Kalman filter also has limitations due to its inherent Gaussian and linearity assumptions. These limitations can manifest themselves in dynamically inconsistent state estimates. We investigate this issue in this paper for highly oscillatory Hamiltonian systems with a dynamical behavior which satisfies certain balance relations. We first demonstrate that the standard ensemble Kalman filter can lead to estimates which do not satisfy those balance relations, ultimately leading to filter divergence. We also propose two remedies for this phenomenon in terms of blended time-stepping schemes and ensemble-based penalty methods. The effect of these modifications to the standard ensemble Kalman filter are discussed and demonstrated numerically for two model scenarios. First, we consider balanced motion for highly oscillatory Hamiltonian systems and, second, we investigate thermally embedded highly oscillatory Hamiltonian systems. The first scenario is relevant for applications from meteorology while the second scenario is relevant for applications of data assimilation to molecular dynamics.","PeriodicalId":283112,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Numerical Analysis","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126660810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Considering the graph case, the problem is weakly formulated and approximated with continuous linear finite elements, which is enabled thanks to second-order operator splitting. The error analysis builds up on previous results for the elastic flow. To obtain an error estimate for the quantity on the curve a better control of the velocity is required. For this purpose, a penalty approach is employed and then combined with a generalised Gronwall lemma. Numerical simulations support the theoretical convergence results. Further numerical experiments indicate stability beyond the parameter regime with respect to the penalty term which is covered by the theory.","PeriodicalId":283112,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Numerical Analysis","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122317347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
