5 Thin Insulation Ω Model of insulation: ε \ Ω Ω R d conducting body Ω εl(s) 0 insulating layer of width εl(s) conductivity of layer is ε u = f ε u = 0 u = 0 in Ω c ε PDE system: u C(Ω ε ) with u = f ε u = 0 u = 0 in Ω in Ω ε \ Ω on Ω ε Limit ε 0 leads to Robin BC: u = f u + l n u = 0 in Ω on Ω See: Brézis, Caffarelli & Friedman 80, Acerbi & Buttazzo 86 Operator form of limit model A l u = f with A l : H 1 (Ω) H 1 (Ω) A l u, v = u v dx Ω + l 1 uv ds Ω A l coercive & symmetric 5 / 32

6 Loss of Heat Associated heat equation t u + A l u = 0, u(0) = u 0 Prinicipal eigenvalue determines long-time behaviour λ m,l = inf A lu, u λ m,l u 2 A l u, u u =1 Decay of variance of enthalpy 1 d 2 dt u 2 = A l u, u λ m,l u 2 = u(t) u 0 e λ m,lt λ m,l smallest eigenfrequency Dependence on available mass m = Ω l ds? Optimal distribution l? Class of admissible mass distributions { I m = l L 1 ( Ω) : l 0, Ω } l ds = m 6 / 32

7 Optimal Distribution For fixed m optimize λ m,l over l I m and note interchange λ m = inf l I m λ m,l = inf u =1 Given u H 1 (Ω) optimal thickness l I m is Problem reduces to λ m = l(s) = m inf J m(u), J m (u) = u =1 u(s) u L 1 ( Ω) Ω inf A l u, u l I m u 2 dx + 1 m ( Ω ) 2 u ds Existence of eigenfunctions u m Nonlocal, nondifferentiable, constrained problem Thickness l proportional to trace of u 7 / 32

8 Symmetry Break Recall λ m = min u =1 J m(u), J m (u) = u m u 2 L 1 ( Ω) m λ m continuous, strictly decreasing, λ m 0 as m Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues for λ D = min u =1, u Ω =0 u 2 > λ N = min u =1, Ω u dx=0 u 2 λ m λ D for m 0 and λ m0 = λ N for some m 0 > 0 λ D λ N m λ m Theorem (Bucur, Buttazzo & Nitsch 16). Nonradial eigenfunctions u m for Ω = B R (0) iff m < m 0, particularly, optimal mass distributions l leave gaps. Gap symmetric and/or connected? m 0 8 / 32

9 Proof (sketched) radial u m solves 1D Sturm Liouville problem and has no roots u m satisfies PDE ( u m, v) + 1 m u m L ( Ω)( 1 σ(um ), v ) Ω = λ m(u m, v) with σ(u m ) u m, i.e., σ(u m ) = 1 since u m > 0 testing u N with v(x) = c 1 x 2 c 2 gives (u N, 1) Ω = ( u N, v) = λ N (u N, v) = 0 u m L 2,H u 1 N since λ m (u m, u N ) = ( u m, u N ) = λ N (u N, u m ) for ε small u m + εu N L1 ( Ω) = u m L1 ( Ω) implies ( um + εu ) N λ m J m = J m(u m ) + ε 2 u N 2 u m + εu N 1 + ε 2 = λ m + ε 2 λ N 1 + ε 2 contradicts λ m > λ N hence u m not radial 9 / 32

12 Properties of BV Function v BV (Ω) if v L 1 (Ω) and Dv = Dv (Ω) = sup Ω ξ C 0 (Ω;Rd ), ξ 1 Examples: (i) v(x) = sign(x), Dv = 2δ 0, Dv (Ω) = 2 (ii) v(x) = χ A (x), Dv (Ω) = Per Ω (A) v div ξ dx < Ω Existence of solutions by convexity and compactness W 1,1 (Ω) BV (Ω) strictly and v L 1 (Ω) = Dv (Ω) C (Ω) BV (Ω) weakly but not strongly dense Intermediate convergence in BV (Ω): v j v in L 1 (Ω) & Dv j (Ω) Dv (Ω) 12 / 32

13 Aspects and Tools Choice of finite element space V h BV (Ω) Convergence rates unter appropriate regularity conditions A posteriori error estimates and local mesh refinement Effective iterative numerical solution Strong convexity: For arbitrary v BV (Ω) L 2 (Ω) α 2 u v 2 I(v) I(u) σ I (v, w) Strong duality: Sharp relation I(v) D(q) with q H N (div; Ω) and D(q) = 1 2α div q + αg 2 + α 2 g 2 I K1 (0)(q) Combination: For minimizer u and arbitrary v and q α 2 u v 2 I(v) I(u) I(v) D(q) v w 13 / 32

14 Convergence Rates P0 FE fails as perimeter approximated incorrectly: h u h L 1 χ {x<0} = Du h (Ω) 2 P1 FE quasi-interpolant via regularization and interpolation Lemma (B., Nochetto & Salgado 12). There exists ũ h,ε S 1 (T h ) with ũ h,ε L 1 (1 + cε + chε 1 ) Du (Ω), u ũ h,ε L 1 c(h 2 ε 1 + ε) Du (Ω). Implies rate O(h 1/4 ) with ε = h 1/2 : α 2 u u h 2 I(u h ) I(u) inf I(v h ) I(u) ch 1/2 v h S 1 (T h ) 1.5 Optimal rate is O(h 1/2 ) for generic u BV (Ω) TVD property ũ h,ε Du (Ω) yields optimality u P h u h h = 1/10 h = 1/20 h = 1/ / 32

15 Adaptivity Computable localized error control via approximation of dual (B. 15): α 2 u u h 2 I(u h ) D(p h ) = u h L 1 = Ω T T h η T (u h, p h ), p h u h dx + 1 2α div p h α(u h g) 2 provided p h H N (div; Ω) with p h 1; note η T (u h, p h ) 0 Nearly optimal rate h 1/2 N 1/4 Dual solution in P1 vector fields Better: H(div; Ω) FE spaces 15 / 32

16 Solution via ADMM Decouple nondifferentiability from gradient via p = u L τ (u, p; λ) = p dx + α 2 u g 2 + (λ; u p) H + τ 2 u p 2 H Ω Formally, e.g., on discrete level, for arbitrary τ 0 inf sup u,p λ L τ (u, p; λ) = inf u I(u) Choice of Hilbert space H: weighted L 2 norm on FE spaces Iterative solution via decoupled minimization: (Glowinski & Morocco 76, Gabay & Mercier 76, He & Yuan 12, Deng & Yin 16) Algorithm. Choose (u 0, λ 0 ) and τ > 0; set j = 1. (1) Compute minimizer p j for p L τ ( u j 1, p; λ j 1). (2) Compute minimizer u j for u L τ ( u, p j ; λ j 1 ). (3) Update λ j 1 via λ j = λ j 1 + τ( u j p j ). 16 / 32
