Discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin Methods for Semilinear Problems
Abstract:
Finite element methods are numerical methods that approximate solutions to PDEs using functions on a mesh representing the problem domain. Discontinuous-Petrov Galerkin Methods are a class of finite element methods that are aimed at achieving stability of the Petrov-Galerkin finite element approximation through a careful selection of the associated trial and test spaces. In this talk, I will present DPG theorems as they apply to linear problems, and then approaches for those theorems in the case of semi-linear problems. In particular, I will explore a particular case of semilinear problems, that allows for results in the linear case to hold.
