2 Outline 1 Functional Spaces and Operators Songting Luo ( Department of Mathematics Iowa State University[0.5in] MATH481 MATH 481 Numerical Metho 2 / 11 Draft

3 Function Spaces and Operators For simplicity, we assume the functions are defined on r0, 1s (extension to any interval ra, bs is straightforward). Function spaces and operators A function space is a vector space (linear space) whose elements are functions. For example: C k r0, 1s tk times continuously differentiable functions on r0, 1su C 0 r0, 1s tcontinuous functions on r0, 1su Most function spaces are infinite-dimensional. Draft Songting Luo ( Department of Mathematics Iowa State University[0.5in] MATH481 MATH 481 Numerical Metho 3 / 11

4 Function Spaces and Operators cont ed Inner Products and Norms Examples of Standard Inner Products: ă u, v ą 0 ş 1 0 upxqvpxqdx ă u, v ą 1 ş 1 0 ru1 pxqv 1 pxq ` upxqvpxqsdx ă u, v ą 2 ş 1 0 ru2 pxqv 2 pxq ` u 1 pxqv 1 pxq ` upxqvpxqsdx etc. It is not the previous p-norm! The subscript refers to how many derivatives are used! Each inner product generates a corresponding norm: }u} p? ă u, u ą p Draft Songting Luo ( Department of Mathematics Iowa State University[0.5in] MATH481 MATH 481 Numerical Metho 4 / 11

5 Function Spaces and Operators cont ed Operator An operator L between two function spaces is linear if Lpαu ` βvq αlpuq ` βlpvq The adjoint operator L is defined by ă Lu, v ą ă u, L v ą L is self-adjoint if L L. L is positive definite if ă Lu, u ąě and ă Lu, u ą 0 if and only if u 0. Draft Songting Luo ( Department of Mathematics Iowa State University[0.5in] MATH481 MATH 481 Numerical Metho 5 / 11

6 Function Spaces and Operators cont ed Examples For a finite-dimensional vector space, L is a matrix, L L T p transpose q L is positive definite ô all eigenvalues of L are positive. Consider Lupxq u 2 pxq, i.e., L : C k Ñ C k 2 is linear. It is self-adjoint on this smaller space Then ă Lu, v ą C k 0 r0, 1s tu P C k r0, 1s : up0q up1q 0u. ż 1 0 u 2 pxqvpxqdx ż 1 Draft 0 upxqv 2 pxqdx ă u, Lv ą, which is obtained by integration by parts. Songting Luo ( Department of Mathematics Iowa State University[0.5in] MATH481 MATH 481 Numerical Metho 6 / 11

7 Function Spaces and Operators cont ed Examples cont ed This L is also positive definite on C k 0 : ă Lu, u ą ż 1 0 u 1 pxq 2 dx using Integration by parts ă Lu, u ą 0 ñ u 1 0 ñ u 0. If enforcing up0q 0, u 1 p1q 0 or u 1 p0q 0, up1q 0 instead, similar conclusions hold. If enforcing u 1 p0q u 1 p1q 0, L is self-adjoint, but not positive definite. Draft Songting Luo ( Department of Mathematics Iowa State University[0.5in] MATH481 MATH 481 Numerical Metho 7 / 11

8 Function Spaces and Operators cont ed Sobolev Spaces A sequence tx n u P R converges to ą 0, DN so that x n M ă ɛ if n ą N. A sequence tx n u is a Cauchy ą 0, DN so that x n x m ă ɛ if n, m ą N. A normed vector space is complete if every Cauchy sequence converges. For examples: Q t rational numbers u is not complete. R, C, R n are complete. For an infinite-dimensional space, it could be complete in one norm, but not in another. For example, C 0 is complete in the 8-norm: }u} 8 max xpr0,1s t upxq u, but not in 0-norm: }u} 0 Draft b ş1 0 upxq 2 dx. Songting Luo ( Department of Mathematics Iowa State University[0.5in] MATH481 MATH 481 Numerical Metho 8 / 11

9 Function Spaces and Operators cont ed Sobolev Spaces The Sobolev space H 0 is the completion of C 0 in }u} 0 norm. It is also called L 2 (square integrable functions) The Sobolev space H k is the completion of C k in }u} k norm. The functions in H k are k times differentiable in some sense, but not in the classical sense Convergence in H k means that the function and all derivatives up to order k converge in the L 2 -sense. We want to work in H k instead of C k is due to the completeness. For a sequence of approximate solutions, we want the limit to exist in the same space.

10 Splines, Piecewise Polynomial Interpolation Given points (nodes) x 0 ă x 1 ă ă x n, equally spaced or not. Splines S p k t piecewise polynomial of degree p with k continuous derivativeu For examples: S0 1 : piecewise constant polynomial, discontinuous. What are the basis functions? S0 1 : piecewise linear polynomial, continuous. What are the basis functions? S2 3 : piecewise cubic polynomial, two continuous derivatives. What are the basis functions? Draft Songting Luo ( Department of Mathematics Iowa State University[0.5in] MATH481 MATH 481 Numerical Metho 10 / 11

11 Splines cont ed Accuracy If tx i u are equally spaced with step-size h, then error in spline approximation from S p k is Ophp`1 q Splines To Use S0 1 : good for integral equations, but not differential equations. They are only H 0, not H 1 S 1 0 : it is P H1. (We will use it) S 3 2 : it is P H3. (work well in 1-D, more complicated though.)
