Seminar Numerical Analysis: Methods Seminar (Time dependent PDEs)

Topic

In this seminar, we discuss solvability and numerical approximation of time-dependent partial-differential equations, including the heat and wave equation. In particular, we investigate the appropriate function spaces for the analysis of the problems, and we study the proof of existence and uniqueness by means of Galerkin approximation and the Rothe method. These two methods are based on discretization in space and time, respectively, so they also provide a first step towards the numerical solution. The basic arguments are introduced for the linear heat and wave equation. We also investigate how they can be generalized to more complicated examples, including nonlinear equations and evolution problems of mixed (parabolic/elliptic/hyperbolic) type.
