Abstract.This paper analyzes a numerical method for solving second-order elliptic partial differential equations. The idea is to write the equation as a lower-order system and solve the system using least squares techniques. Error estimates are derived for a model problem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
