Explicit exponential Runge-Kutta methods for semilinear integro-differential equations

The aim of this paper is to construct and analyze explicit exponential Runge-Kutta methods for the temporal discretization of linear and semilinear integro-differential equations. By expanding the errors of the numerical method in terms of the solution, we derive order conditions that form the basis of our error bounds for integro-differential equations. The order conditions are further used for constructing numerical methods. The convergence analysis is performed in a Hilbert space setting, where the smoothing effect of the resolvent family is heavily used. For the linear case, we derive the order conditions for general order $p$ and prove convergence of order $p$, whenever these conditions are satisfied. In the semilinear case, we consider in addition spatial discretization by a spectral Galerkin method, and we require locally Lipschitz continuous nonlinearities. We derive the order conditions for orders one and two, construct methods satisfying these conditions and prove their convergence. Finally, some numerical experiments illustrating our theoretical results are given.

Discontinuous Galerkin for the wave equation: a simplified a priori error analysis

Standard discontinuous Galerkin methods, based on piecewise polynomials of degree $ \qq=0,1$, are considered for temporal semi-discretization for second order hyperbolic equations. The main goal of this paper is to present a simple and straightforward a priori error analysis of optimal order with minimal regularity requirement on the solution. Uniform norm in time error estimates are also proved. To this end, energy identities and stability estimates of bthe discrete problem are proved for a slightly more general problem. These are used to prove optimal order a priori error estimates with minimal regularity requirement on the solution. The combination with the classic continuous Galerkin finite element discretization in space variable is used, to formulate a full-discrete scheme. The a priori error analysis is presented. Numerical experiments are performed to verify the theoretical results.

Mittag-Leffler Euler integrator for a stochastic fractional order equation with additive noise

Motivated by fractional derivative models in viscoelasticity, a class of semilinear stochastic Volterra integro-differential equations, and their deterministic counterparts, are considered. A generalized exponential Euler method, named here as the Mittag-Leffler Euler integrator, is used for the temporal discretization, while the spatial discretization is performed by the spectral Galerkin method. The temporal rate of strong convergence is found to be (almost) twice compared to when the backward Euler method is used together with a convolution quadrature for time discretization. Numerical experiments that validate the theory are presented.

Discontinuous Galerkin method for an integro-differential equation modeling dynamic fractional order viscoelasticity

An integro-differential equation, modeling dynamic fractional order viscoelasticity, with a Mittag-Leffler type convolution kernel is considered. A discontinuous Galerkin method, based on piecewise constant polynomials is formulated for temporal semidiscretization of the problem. Stability estimates of the discrete problem are proved, that are used to prove optimal order a priori error estimates. The theory is illustrated by a numerical example.

Existence and convergence of Galerkin approximation for second order hyperbolic equations with memory

We study a second order hyperbolic initial-boundary value partial differential equation with memory, that results in an integro-differential equation with a convolution kernel. The kernel is assumed to be either smooth or no worse than weakly singular, that arise, e.g. in linear and fractional order viscoelasticity. Existence and uniqueness of the spatial local and global Galerkin approximation of the problem is proved by means of Picard iteration. Then spatial finite element approximation of the problem is formulated, and optimal order a priori error estimates are proved by energy method. The required regularity of the solution, for optimal order convergence, is the same as minimum regularity of the solution for second order hyperbolic partial differential equations.

Well-posedness of an integro-differential equation with positive type kernels modeling fractional order viscoelasticity

A hyperbolic type integro-differential equation with two weakly singular kernels is considered together with mixed homogeneous Dirichlet and non-homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. Existence and uniqueness of the solution is proved by means of Galerkin's method. Regularity estimates are proved and the limitations of the regularity are discussed. The approach presented here is also used to prove regularity of any order for models with smooth kernels, that arise in the theory of linear viscoelasticity, under the appropriate assumptions on data.

Continuous Galerkin finite element methods for hyperbolic integro-differential equations

A hyperbolic integro-differential equation is considered, as a model problem, where the convolution kernel is assumed to be either smooth or no worse than weakly singular. Well-posedness of the problem is studied in the context of semigroup of linear operators, and regularity of any order is proved for smooth kernels. Energy method is used to prove optimal order a priori error estimates for the finite element spatial semidiscrete problem. A continuous space-time finite element method of order one is formulated for the problem. Stability of the discrete dual problem is proved, that is used to obtain optimal order a priori estimates via duality arguments. The theory is illustrated by an example.

A posteriori error analysis for a continuous space-time finite element method for a hyperbolic integro-differential equation

An integro-differential equation of hyperbolic type, with mixed boundary conditions, is considered. A continuous space-time finite element method of degree one is formulated. A posteriori error representations based on space-time cells is presented such that it can be used for adaptive strategies based on dual weighted residual methods. A posteriori error estimates based on weighted global projections and local projections are also proved.
