  • In this paper we consider finite element mathods for nonlinear parabolic problems defined in ${\Omega}{\subset}R^d$ ($d{\leq}4$). A new initial approximation is taken. Optimal order error estimates in $L_p$ for $2{\leq}p{\leq}{\infty}$ are established for arbitrary order finite element. One order superconvergence in $W^{1,p}$ for $2{\leq}q{\leq}{\infty}$ are demonstrated as well.

  • Finite difference schemes are considered for a generalization of the Cahn-Hilliard equation with Neumann boundary conditions and the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation with a periodic boundary condition, which is of the type $ut+\frac{{\partial}^2} {{\partial}x^2}\;g\;(u,\;u_x,\;u_{xx})=f(u,\;u_x,\;u_{xx})$. Stability and $L^{\infty}$ error estimates of approximate solutions for the corresponding schemes are obtained using the extended Lax-Richtmyer equivalence theorem.

  • In this paper, we consider a semi-discrete mixed discontinuous Galerkin method with an interior penalty to approximate the solution of parabolic problems. We define an auxiliary projection to analyze the error estimate and obtain optimal error estimates in $L^{\infty}(L^2)$ for the primary variable u, optimal error estimates in $L^2(L^2)$ for ut, and suboptimal error estimates in $L^{\infty}(L^2)$ for the flux variable ${\sigma}$.

  • In this paper we derive a priori $L^{\infty}(L^2)$ error estimates for expanded mixed finite element formulations of semilinear Sobolev equations. This formulation expands the standard mixed formulation in the sense that three variables, the scalar unknown, the gradient and the flux are explicitly treated. Based on this method we construct finite element semidiscrete approximations and fully discrete approximations of the semilinear Sobolev equations. We prove the existence of semidiscrete approximations of u, $-{\nabla}u$ and $-{\nabla}u-{\nabla}u_t$ and obtain the optimal order error estimates in the $L^{\infty}(L^2)$ norm. And also we construct the fully discrete approximations and analyze the optimal convergence of the approximations in ${\ell}^{\infty}(L^2)$ norm. Finally we also provide the computational results.

  • In this paper, we consider first order generalized difference scheme for the two-point boundary value problem and one-dimensional second order parabolic type problem. The optimal error estimates in $L_p$ and $W^{1,p}$ ($2{\leq}p{\leq}{\infty}$) as well as some superconvergence estimates in $W^{1,p}$ ($2{\leq}p{\leq}{\infty}$) are obtained. The main results in this paper perfect the theory of GDM.

  • We consider the finite element method applied to nonlinear Sobolev equation with smooth data and demonstrate for arbitrary order ($k{\geq}2$) finite element spaces the optimal rate of convergence in $L_{\infty}\;W^{1,{\infty}}({\Omega})$ and $L_{\infty}(L_{\infty}({\Omega}))$ (quasi-optimal for k = 1). In other words, the nonlinear Sobolev equation can be approximated equally well as its linear counterpart. Furthermore, we also obtain superconvergence results in $L_{\infty}(W^{1,{\infty}}({\Omega}))$ for the difference between the approximate solution and the generalized elliptic projection of the exact solution.

  • In this paper we consider finite element methods for nonlinear hyperbolic integro-differential problems defined in ${\Omega}\;{\subset}\;R^d(d\;{\leq}\;4)$.

One order superconvergence in $W^{1,p}$ for $2\;{\leq}\;p\;{\leq}\;{\infty}$ are demonstrated as well.

  • In this paper, generalized difference methods(GDM) for one-dimensional viscoelastic problems are proposed and analyzed. The new initial values are given in the generalized difference scheme, so we obtain optimal error estimates in $L^p$ and $W^{1,p}(2\;{\leq}\;p\;{\leq}\;{\infty})$ as well as some superconvergence estimates in $W^{1,p}(2\;{\leq}\;p\;{\leq}\;{\infty})$ between the GDM solution and the generalized Ritz-Volterra projection of the exact solution.
