A Unified Analysis of Nonconforming Virtual Element Methods for Convection Diffusion Reaction Problem

Abstract

We discuss nonconforming virtual element method for convection dominated (diffusive coefficient is very small compared to convective coefficient and reac- tion coefficient ) convection-diffusion-reaction equation using L^2 projection operator.In this paper we stabilize the stabilization terms using same technique which is used for stabilization of symmetric part in VEM, where T is an arbitrary element, and assume H^2(T) regularity on each element to prove polynomial consistency where v_h is approximate solution.We have shown that linear nonconforming VE is not convergent for convection dominated convection-diffusion reaction problem and higher regu larity of f ,source term is also needed for convergence analysis.The novelty of this paper is we introduce a new SDFEM type nonconforming virtual element method for convection-dominated convection diffusion reaction equation, and discuss the computability issue using degrees of freedom of element without explicit knowledge of basis functions of virtual element methods.The present framework is stable in the limit of vanishing diffusion.

Fully spectral scheme for the linear BGK equation on the whole space

In this article, we design a fully spectral method in both space and velocity for a linear inhomogeneous kinetic equation with mass, momentum and energy conservation. We focus on the linear BGK equation with a confinement potential $Φ$, even if the method could be applied to different collision operators. It is based upon the projection on Hermite polynomials in velocity and orthonormal polynomials with respect to the weight $e^{-$Φ$}$ in space. The potential $Φ$ is assumed to be a polynomial. It is, to the author's knowledge, the first scheme which preserves hypocoercive behavior in addition to the conservation laws. These different properties are illustrated numerically on both quadratic and double well potential.

Inverse inequalities for kernel-based approximation on bounded domains and Riemannian manifolds

This paper establishes inverse inequalities for kernel-based approximation spaces defined on bounded Lipschitz domains in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and compact Riemannian manifolds. While inverse inequalities are well-studied for polynomial spaces, their extension to kernel-based trial spaces poses significant challenges. For bounded Lipschitz domains, we extend prior Bernstein inequalities, which only apply to a limited range of Sobolev orders, to the full range of lower and upper orders, and derive Nikolskii inequalities that bound $L_\infty$ norms by $L_2$ norms. For compact Riemannian manifolds, we focus on restricted kernels, which are defined as the restriction of positive definite kernels from the ambient Euclidean space to the manifold, and prove their counterparts.

Error Estimates for Hyperbolic Scaling Limits of Linear Kinetic Models on Networks

This paper studies linear discrete kinetic models on networks and their asymptotic behavior in the small Knudsen number limit. For coupling conditions at an n-edge junction under a symmetric formulation, we introduce a change of variables that reformulates the system into n independent initial-boundary value problems. The asymptotic expansions are then constructed and rigorously justified by deriving an error estimate based on the energy method.
