Abstract

We design and analyze a nonoverlapping additive Schwarz preconditioner for interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin discretizations of anisotropic elliptic problems. The preconditioned method coupled with a Krylov subspace iteration is shown to be independent of the highly discontinuous (and anisotropic) jump coefficients as well as the subdomain size. To increase efficacy, various auxiliary spaces are considered to reduce the size of the coarse grid operator. We demonstrate how to modify the additive Schwarz preconditioner such that it is applicable to the nonsymmetric IPDG schemes. Several numerical experiments verify the theory and validate the robustness of the preconditioner.

Uniform-in-time Strong Error Estimates of Tamed-FEM to Superlinear SPDEs driven by Multiplicative Noise

We establish sharp, uniform-in-time strong error estimates for a nonlinearity-explicit tamed finite element method (FEM) applied to a class of superlinear stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) driven by multiplicative noise, including the stochastic Allen--Cahn equation with a moderately thick interface. This tamed-FEM was first introduced in {\it Z. Liu and J. Shen, J. Sci. Comput., 109:Paper No. 61, 26, 2026} to ensure long-time unconditional stability and to preserve the Lyapunov structure of this class of SPDEs. We further prove that the scheme is exponentially ergodic and derive the convergence rate of the numerical invariant measure to the exact one in the Wasserstein-2 distance. Finally, we present numerical experiments that verify the ergodicity, sharpness, and time-independence of the strong convergence rates for this tamed-FEM.

Solution Analysis of Tensor Equation $\mathcal{A} \ltimes \mathcal{X} \ltimes \mathcal{B}= \mathcal{C}$ via Semi Tensor Product with t-product

Tensor equations involving both left and right tensor operators arise naturally in applications where multidimensional data are coupled through transformations acting from both sides. Motivated by the need to analyze such equations, this manuscript investigates a detailed solution analysis of $\mathcal{A}\ltimes \mathcal{X}\ltimes \mathcal{B} = \mathcal{C}$ via the semi-tensor product with the $t$-product. The manuscript provides a more general framework that includes, as a special case, the tensor equation $\mathcal{A}\ltimes\mathcal{X}=\mathcal{B}$ considered in \cite{J.FathitensorequationAX=BunderSTP}. Necessary and sufficient conditions are derived for the existence of vector and matrix valued solutions. Explicit compatibility conditions are established, and constructive Moore-Penrose-inverse-based algorithms are provided for the vector and matrix valued cases. The computational complexity and execution times are compared for Discrete Fourier Transform(DFT) and Fast Fourier Transform(FFT) based \(t\)-product implementations. The practical relevance of the proposed framework is further demonstrated through a color image deblurring application. Examples throughout illustrate the theoretical results.

A Monolithic Discontinuous Galerkin Framework for Darcy Optimal Control with Radon-Measure Tracking and Pointwise Control Constraints

We study an elliptic optimal control problem governed by Darcy's equation in heterogeneous porous media, with pointwise box constraints on the control. The objective functional is formulated via a Radon measure, which allows the desired pressure state to be tracked on observation sets of varying dimension, including points, curves, and subdomains, within a single formulation. The state and adjoint equations are discretized by a symmetric interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin method, yielding a locally mass-conservative approximation that is robust across strong permeability discontinuities, while the control is approximated by piecewise constants. The state, adjoint, and control are retained as primary unknowns in a single coupled optimality system and solved monolithically by a primal-dual active set strategy. We establish stability and well-posedness of the discretization and derive a priori $L^2$ error estimates for both variables. The principal difficulty is the reduced regularity of the adjoint state induced by the measure-valued tracking data. The analysis controls the resulting adjoint-control coupling through an intermediate adjoint driven by the continuous optimal state. Numerical experiments confirm the predicted convergence rates for point, curve, and subdomain observations, exhibit mesh-independent primal-dual active set iteration counts, and demonstrate local mass conservation.
