We derive explicit, uniform, a priori interior Hessian and gradient estimates for special Lagrangian equations of all phases in dimension two.

1.1 Background Earth’s evolution reflects the history of heat transfer from the interior [53, 1101 via the fundamental processes of plate tectonics, conduction through continental lithosphere, and hotspot volcanism [103]. As a result, considerable attention has been directed toward understanding Earth’s thermal history, the variation in the temperature field in space and tune. The primary direc...

In this paper, we propose two systematic strategies to recover the gradient on the boundary of a domain. The recovered gradient has comparable superconvergent property on the boundary as that in the interior of the domain. This superconvergence property has been validated by several numerical experiments. © 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

We discuss interior point methods for large-scale linear programming, with an emphasis on methods that are useful for problems arising in telecommunications. We give the basic framework of a primal-dual interior point method, and consider the numerical issues involved in calculating the search direction in each iteration, including the use of factorization methods and/or preconditioned conjugat...

This paper presents an annotated bibliography on interior point methods for solving network flow problems. We consider single and multicommodity network flow problems, as well as preconditioners used in implementations of conjugate gradient methods for solving the normal systems of equations that arise in interior network flow algorithms. Applications in electrical engineering and miscellaneous...

We present a quadratic Discrete-time Optimal Control problem generator, written in C, with options for Degeneracy, Activity and Conditioning (DOCDAC). We use the generator to investigate badly conditioned and degenerate extended linear-quadratic problems (ELQPs) by solving such problems with primal-dual projected gradient and interior-point methods. The benefit of using second-order information...

We consider a class of vectorial integrals with linear growth, where, as a key feature, some degenerate/singular behavior is allowed. For generalized minimizers of these integrals in BV, we establish interior gradient regularity and — as a consequence — uniqueness up to constants. In particular, these results apply, for 1 < p < 2, to the singular model integrals ∫ Ω (1 + |∇w(x)|) 1 p dx . MSC (...

This article studies the linear multicommodity network flow problem. This kind of problem arises in a wide variety of contexts. A numerical implementation of the primal-dual interior-point method is designed to solve the problem. In the interior-point method, at each iteration, the corresponding linear problem, expressed as an augmented indefinite system, is solved by using the AINV algorithm c...

We present a one dimensional semilinear parabolic equation for which the spatial derivative of solutions becomes unbounded in finite time while the solutions themselves remain bounded. In our example the derivative blows up in the interior of the space interval rather than at the boundary, as in earlier examples. In the case of monotone solutions we show that gradient blow-up occurs at a single...
