We propose and analyze a new numericalmethod, called a couplingmethod based on a new expandedmixed finite element (EMFE) and finite element (FE), for fourth-order partial differential equation of parabolic type. We first reduce the fourth-order parabolic equation to a coupled system of second-order equations and then solve a second-order equation by FEmethod and approximate the other one by a n...

We consider the analysis and numerical solution of a forward-backward boundary value problem. We provide some motivation, prove existence and uniqueness in a function class especially geared to the problem at hand, provide various energy estimates, prove a priori error estimates for the Galerkin method, and show the results of some numerical computations.

We find a priori and a posteriori error estimates of the best proximity point for the Picard iteration associated to a cyclic contraction map, which is defined on a uniformly convex Banach space with modulus of convexity of power type.

The main goal of the paper is to establish time semidiscrete and space-time fully discrete maximal parabolic regularity for the time discontinuous Galerkin solution of linear parabolic equations. Such estimates have many applications. They are essential, for example, in establishing optimal a priori error estimates in nonHilbertian norms without unnatural coupling of spatial mesh sizes with tim...

An integro-differential equation, modeling dynamic fractional order viscoelasticity, with a Mittag-Leffler type convolution kernel is considered. A discontinuous Galerkin method, based on piecewise constant polynomials is formulated for temporal semidiscretization of the problem. Stability estimates of the discrete problem are proved, that are used to prove optimal order a priori error estimate...
