Abstract:We have recently proposed a variational framework for the approximation of systems of differential equations. We associated, in a natural way, with the original problem, a certain error functional. The discretization is based on standard descent schemes, and we can use a variable-step implementation. The minimization problem has a unique solution, and the approach has a global convergence. The use of our error-functional strategy was considered by other authors, but using a completely different way to derive t… Show more
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.
