3 Optimal adaptive finite element methods Model problem: Poisson, 2D, newest vertex bisection. [Generalizations: A with A symm. pos. def. piecewise constant, any space dimension n, red-refinements.] Given f H 1 (Ω), find u H 1 0(Ω), a(u, v) := := a(, ) 1 2. Ω u v = Ω fv =: f(v) (v H 1 0(Ω)). τ conforming part. of Ω into triangles, V τ = H 1 0(Ω) T τ P d 1(T ). Find u τ V τ, a(u τ, v τ ) = f(v τ ) (v τ V τ ). AFEM: GALSOLVE, compute a post. error est, MARK, REFINE. 2/16

4 Initial, conforming partition τ 0 Newest vertex bisection τ := REFINE[τ, M] : Bisect all T M τ a few times. Complete. Th 1 (Binev, Dahmen, DeVore 04). With suitable assignment of newest vertices in initial mesh, #τ K #τ 0 K 1 i=0 #M i (unif. in K). (can be generalized to any space dimension [St. 08]) 3/16

5 Perspective: Approximation classes A s := {u H 1 0(Ω) : u A s := sup N N s inf {τ P:#τ #τ 0 N} u u τ H 1 < }, [i.e. u u τ H 1 ε generally requires #τ #τ 0 ε 1/s u 1/s A s. ] When P unif. refs, then u A (d 1)/n = u H d (Ω), i.e., α u L 2 (Ω), α d With P all partitions created by newest vertex bisection: u A (d 1)/n = u B d q(l p (Ω)), any p > ( d 1 n ) 1 i.e., α u L p (Ω) α d ([Binev, Dahmen, DeVore, Petrushev 02]) Regul. th: For suff sm f, n = 2, u in such a Besov space for any d ([Dahlke, DeVore 97]). 4/16

6 A posteriori error estimator η T (f, u τ ) := diam(t ) 2 f + u τ 2 L 2 (T ) + diam(t ) u τ n T 2 L 2 ( T ), Th 2 (Babu ska, Rheinboldt 78; Verfürth 96). u u τ C 1 E(τ, f, u τ ) := C 1 [ η T (f, u τ )] 1 2. T τ Proof. u u τ = sup v H 1 0 (Ω) a(u u τ,v) v. a(u u τ, v) = a(u u τ, v v τ ) = = T τ T (f + u τ )(v v τ ) Ω T f(v v τ ) a(u τ, v v τ ) u τ n(v v τ ). Th 3 (St. 06, Cascon,Kreuzer,Nochetto,Siebert 07). σ τ, R τ σ := {T τ : T σ}, u σ u τ C 1 [ η T (f, u τ )] 1 T R τ σ Note #R τ σ #σ #τ. 5/16 2.

7 A posteriori error estimator We call σ τ a full refinement with respect to T τ, when T and all its neighbours in τ, as well as all faces of T contain a vertex of σ in their interiors. T τσ Th 4 (Morin, Nochetto, Siebert 00). Let f T τ P d 2(T ), σ τ full ref w.r.t. T τ. Then η T (f, u τ ) T {T } {neighbours} u σ u τ 2 H 1 ( T ) 6/16

AFEM converges (Dörfler 96, Morin, Nochetto, Siebert 00) MARK[τ, f, u τ ] M: Let θ (0, 1]. Select smallest M τ s.t. [ η T (τ, f, u τ )] 1 2 θ E(τ, f, uτ ). T M REFINE[τ, M] σ: Construct smallest (conforming) σ τ that is a full refinement w.r.t. all T M. u u τ 2 = u u σ 2 + u σ u τ 2 u σ u τ c 2 θe(τ, f, u τ ) c 2θ C 1 u u τ u u σ (1 c2 2θ 2 ) 2 1 u uτ C 2 1 u τ u u σ 7/16 V σ

9 AFEM converges with optimal rate [St 06] ([Binev,Dahmen,DeVore 04] using coarsening) AFEM[f, ε] [τ m, u τm ] % let f T τ 0 P d 2 (T ) compute Gal sol u τ0 V τ0 ; k := 0 while C 1 E(τ k, f, u τk ) > ε do M k := MARK[τ k, f, u τk ] τ k+1 := REFINE[τ k, M k ] compute Gal sol u τk+1 V τk+1 k := k + 1 end do m := k Th 6. If θ < c 2 C 1, then u u τm ε, #τ m #τ 0 m 1 k=0 #M k #M k inf { #ρ #τ 0 : u u ρ [1 C2 1 θ2 ] 1 2 u u c 2 τk } 2 [ [1 C2 1 θ2 ] 1 2 u u c 2 τk ] 1/s 1/s u A s when u As 2. #τ m #τ 0 m 1 k=0 u u τk 1/s u 1/s A s u u τ m 1 1/s u 1/s A s ε 1/s u 1/s A s. 8/16

10 AFEM converges with opt rate Pr. Th. 6. Let σ τ k s.t. u u σ [1 C2 1 θ2 ] 1 2 u u c 2 τk. Th.3 shows 2 C 2 1 T R τk σ η T (f, u τk ) u σ u τk 2 = u u τk 2 u u σ 2 i.e., [ C2 1θ 2 c 2 u u τk 2 C1θ 2 2 E(τ k, f, u τk ) 2, 2 η T (f, u τk )] 1 2 θe(τk, f, u τk ). T R τk σ M := MARK[τ k, f, u τk ] is smallest set with this prop, so #M #R τk σ #σ #τ k. For arb. ρ with u u ρ [1 C2 1 θ2 ] 1 2 u u c 2 τk, take σ := τ k ρ. Then 2 #M #σ #τ k #ρ #τ 0. 9/16

11 General right hand sides and inexact solves RHS[τ, f, δ] [σ, f σ ] % In: τ a partition, f H 1 (Ω) and δ > 0. % Out: f σ T τ P d 2(T ), where σ = τ, or, if necessary, σ τ, % such that f f σ H 1 (Ω) δ. If u A s, cost of RHS will not dominate if c f s.t. #σ #τ c 1/s f δ 1/s, and cost #σ. Such a pair (f, RHS) is called s-optimal. For suff. smooth f, s-optimality with s = d n (> d 1 n ) can be realized. GALSOLVE[τ, f τ, u (0) τ, δ] w τ % In: τ, f τ (S τ ), and u (0) τ S τ. % Out: w τ S τ with u τ w τ H 1 (Ω) δ. % The call should require max{1, log(δ 1 u τ u (0) τ H 1 (Ω))}#τ ops. 10/16

12 AFEM has opt compl AFEM[f, ε] [τ m, w τm ] % ω, β > 0 suff small constants. w τ0 := 0; k := 0; δ 0 f H 1 (Ω) do do δ k := δ k /2 [τ k, f τk ] := RHS[τ k, f, δ k /2] w τk := GALSOLVE[τ k, f τk, w τk, δ k /2] if η k := (2 + C 1 c 1 2 )δ k/2 + C 1 E(τ k, f τk, w τk ) ε then stop endif until δ k ωe(τ k, f τk, w τk ). M k := MARK[τ k, f τk, w τk ] τ k+1 := REFINE[τ k, M k ] w τk+1 := w τk, δ k+1 := 2βη k, k := k + 1 enddo m := k Th 7. u w τm H 1 (Ω) ε. If u A s, and (f, RHS) is s-optimal, then both #τ m and work ε 1/s ( u 1/s A s + c1/s f ). 11/16

13 Realizations of RHS ex. f L 2 (Ω). Q σ being L 2 -orth.proj. onto T σ P d 2(T ). f Q σ f H 1 (Ω) T σ vol(t ) 2 n f Q T f 2 L 2 (T ) =: osc(f, σ) Given θ (0, 1), run MARK and REFINE algorithm on osc until δ. Is quasi-optimal in the sense that whenever f Ās := {f L 2 (Ω) : sup N N s inf osc(f, τ) < }, {τ:#τ #τ 0 N} then (f, RHS) is s-optimal (assuming T fp d 2 exact in O(1) operations) So greedy works (thanks to factor vol(t ) 2 n). 12/16

14 Realizations of RHS ex. General d, n > 1. ( n ) 1 < q 2, f L q (Ω) ( H 1 (Ω)). Generalization of previous case with osc(f, σ) := T σ vol(t ) 1 2 q + 2 n inf p P d 2 (T ) f p 2 L q (T ). ex. n = 2, d = 2, f(v) = K v, K a smooth curve. RHS[τ, f, δ] [σ, f σ]: Refine those T that intersect K until their diameters δ 2. (f σ ) T := length(k T ) vol(t ). s-optimal for s = 1 2 (=d 1 n ). 13/16
