1. GENERAL FORM OF FINITE VOLUME METHODS We consider vertex-centered finite volume methods for solving diffusion type elliptic equation (1) −∇ · (K∇u) = f in Ω, with suitable Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. Here Ω ⊂ R is a polyhedral domain (d ≥ 2), the diffusion coefficient K(x) is a d× d symmetric matrix function that is uniformly positive definite on Ω with components in L∞(Ω), and...

We prove convergence of discrete duality finite volume (DDFV) schemes on distorted meshes for a class of simplified macroscopic bidomain models of the electrical activity in the heart. Both time-implicit and linearised time-implicit schemes are treated. A short description is given of the 3D DDFV meshes and of some of the associated discrete calculus tools. Several numerical tests are presented.

in this article, we consider the uniqueness of the difference monomials $f^{n}(z)f(z+c)$. suppose that $f(z)$ and $g(z)$ are transcendental meromorphic functions with finite order and $e_k(1, f^{n}(z)f(z+c))=e_k(1, g^{n}(z)g(z+c))$. then we prove that if one of the following holds (i) $n geq 14$ and $kgeq 3$, (ii) $n geq 16$ and $k=2$, (iii) $n geq 22$ and $k=1$, then $f(z)equiv t_1g(z)$ or $f(...
