This result is crucial for the convergence analysis of a finite volume method for the approximation of a convection–diffusion equation involving a Joule effect term on a uniform mesh in each direction.

The discrete problem involves a nonlinear projection operator mapping arbitrary nodal values into bound-preserving ones and seeks the numerical solution in the range of this projection. As the projection is not injective, a stabilisation based upon the complementary projection is added in order to restore well-posedness. Within the framework of elliptic problems, the discrete problem may be viewed as a reformulation of a discrete obstacle problem, incorporating the inequality constraints through Lipschitz projections. The derivation of the proposed method is exemplified for linear and nonlinear reaction-diffusion problems. Near-best approximation results in suitable norms are established. In particular, we prove that, in the linear case, the numerical solution is the best approximation in the energy norm among all nodally bound-preserving finite element functions. A series of numerical experiments for such problems showcase the good behaviour of the proposed bound-preserving finite element method.","PeriodicalId":56295,"journal":{"name":"IMA Journal of Numerical Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135236854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The idea consists in using a suitable combination of discretization schemes calculated on different random grids to increase the order of convergence. This technique coupled with the second order scheme proposed by Alfonsi (2010, High order discretization schemes for the CIR process: application to affine term structure and Heston models. Math.

To obtain a fully discrete scheme, the splitting approach is combined with finite elements in space and a backward differentiation formula in time. Within this paper, we focus on the second-order case, resulting in a $3$-step scheme.

IMA J. Num. Analysis, 40, 2076–2105) for the $varepsilon $-dependent stochastic Allen–Cahn equation with mild noise $dot{W}^varepsilon $ tending to rough as $varepsilon rightarrow 0$. Our results are derived under low regularity since the noise even smooth in space is assumed only one-time continuously differentiable in time, according to the minimum regularity properties of Funaki (1999, Singular limit for stochastic reaction–diffusion equation and generation of random interfaces. Acta Math. Sinica, 15, 407–438). We prove a posteriori error estimates for the $m$-dimensional problem, $mleq 4$ for a general class of space-time finite element spaces. The a posteriori bound is growing only polynomially in $varepsilon ^{-1}$ if the step length $h$ is bounded by a positive power of $varepsilon $. This agrees with the restriction posed so far in the a priori error analysis of continuous finite element schemes for the $varepsilon $-dependent deterministic Allen–Cahn or deterministic and stochastic Cahn–Hilliard equation. As an application, we examine tensorial elements where the discrete solution is approximated by polynomial functions of separated space and time variables; the a posteriori estimates there involve dimensions, and the space, time discretization parameters. We then consider the special case of the mild noise $dot{W}^varepsilon $ as defined in Weber (2010, On the short time asymptotic of the stochastic Allen–Cahn equation. Ann. Inst. Henri Poincare Probab. Stat., 46, 965–975) through the convolution of a Gaussian process with a proper mollifying kernel, which is then numerically constructed.
