Solving the 3D Laplace equation by meshless collocation via harmonic kernels

Abstract: This paper solves the Laplace equation ∆u = 0 on domains Ω ⊂ R 3 by meshless collocation on scattered points of the boundary ∂Ω. In contrast to the Method of Fundamental Solutions, there are no singularities and no artificial boundaries, since we use new singularity-free positive definite kernels which are harmonic in both arguments. In contrast to many other techniques, e.g. the Boundary Point Method or the Method of Fundamental Solutions, we provide a solid mathematical foundation which includes error bounds… Show more

“…The direct meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (DMLPG) method is applied in [38] to the numerical solution of transient heat conduction problem. The main aim of [27] is to solve the Laplace equation ∆u = 0 on domains Ω ⊂ R 3 by meshless collocation on scattered points of the boundary ∂Ω. Authors of [21] provided a new way to compute and evaluate Gaussian radial basis function interpolants in a stable way with a special focus on small values of the shape parameter, i.e., for " flat" kernels.…”

“…Due to its optimality properties, it is impossible to be outperformed error-wise for the given data, but is has serious stability and complexity drawbacks that are hard to overcome. A special case, connected to Trefftz methods and confined to potential problems, is in [32,15], but it deserves extensions using new kernels implementing singularity-free homogeneous solutions of other differential operators.…”

“…This is a nasty approximation problem that should get much more attention by Approximation Theorists. The papers [32,15] use special kernel-based trial spaces where these approximation errors can be calculated, without any fictitious boundary. For the special case of equidistant points on concentric circles and conformal images of such configurations, results of Katsurada [19,20], handle the problem nicely by Fourier analysis.…”

“…Using the standard Hilbert space background [19,12], we also can formulate a P-greedy method for solving Dirichlet problems for harmonic functions in 2D or 3D. It will follow the Kolmogoroff N-width theory for such cases, but the latter seems to be open.…”
