“…UQ for the Helmholtz equation and k-explicit parametric regularity. Whilst a large amount of initial UQ theory concerned Poisson's equation ∇ • (A(x, y)∇u(x, y)) = −f (x), there has been increasing interest in UQ of Helmholtz equation with (large) wavenumber k [89,84,8,38,28,24,30,59,49,3,75,25,69,43,46,7,39,87] and the time-harmonic Maxwell equations [51,52,29,1]. The Helmholtz equation with wavenumber k and random coefficients is k −2 ∇ • (A(x, y)∇u(x, y)) + n(x, y)u(x, y) = −f (x) (1.2) where A and n depend on both the spatial variable x and the stochastic variable y.…”
