  • We introduce a Crank-Nicolson characteristic finite element method to construct approximate solutions of a nonlinear Sobolev equation with a convection term. And for the Crank-Nicolson characteristic finite element method, we obtain the higher order of convergence in the temporal direction and in the spatial direction in $L^2$ normed space.

  • 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 develop a symmetric Galerkin method with interior penalty terms to construct fully discrete approximations of the solution for nonlinear Sobolev equations. To analyze the convergence of discontinuous Galerkin approximations, we introduce an appropriate projection and derive the optimal $L^2$ error estimates.

  • In this paper, we construct extrapolated expanded mixed finite element approximations to approximate the scalar unknown, its gradient and its flux of semilinear Sobolev equations. To avoid the difficulty of solving the system of nonlinear equations, we use an extrapolated technique in our construction of the approximations. Some numerical examples are used to show the efficiency of our schemes.

  • We study existence of positive solutions of the classical nonlinear Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger equation $-{\Delta}u\;+\;V(x)u\;-\;f(x,\;u)\;-\;H(x)u^{2*-1}\;=\;0$, u > 0 in $\mathbb{R}^n$ $u\;{\rightarrow}\;0\;as\;|x|\;{\rightarrow}\;{\infty}$. In fact, we consider the following more general quasi-linear Schr$\ddot{o}$odinger equation $-div(|{\nabla}u|^{m-2}{\nabla}u)\;+\;V(x)u^{m-1}$ $-f(x,\;u)\;-\;H(x)u^{m^*-1}\;=\;0$, u > 0 in $\mathbb{R}^n$ $u\;{\rightarrow}\;0\;as\;|x|\;{\rightarrow}\;{\infty}$, where m $\in$ (1, n) is a positive number and $m^*\;:=\;\frac{mn}{n-m}\;>\;0$, is the corresponding critical Sobolev embedding number in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Under appropriate conditions on the functions V(x), f(x, u) and H(x), existence and non-existence results of positive solutions have been established.
