For the numerical simulation of wave phenomena either in unbounded domains that it is not feasible to compute solutions on the entire region, it is needed to truncate the original domains to manageable bounded domains whose geometries are simple but usually nonsmooth. On the artificial boundaries thus created, absorbing boundary conditions are taken so that the significant part of waves arriving at the artificial boundaries can be transmitted [5,10,11,16,17,26]$.

Polyharmonic operator with Dirichlet boundary condition is considered in a n-dimensional cone. The regularity properties of weak solutions are studied. In particular, it is proved the Holder contionuity of solutions near the vertex of the cone for dimensions n=2m+3,2m+4, where 2m is the order of the polyharmonic operator.

Let H be a Hilbert space which is the direct sum of five closed subspaces $X_0,\;X_1,\;X_2,\;X_3$ and $X_4$ with $X_1,\;X_2,\;X_3$ of finite dimension. Let J be a $C^{1,1}$ functional defined on H with J(0) = 0. We show the existence of at least four nontrivial critical points when the sublevels of J (the torus with three holes and sphere) link and the functional J satisfies sup-inf variational inequality on the linking subspaces, and the functional J satisfies $(P.S.)^*_c$ condition and $f|X_0{\otimes}X_4$ has no critical point with level c. For the proof of main theorem we use the nonsmooth version of the classical deformation lemma and the limit relative category theory.

The solution of the elliptic partial differential equation has interface singularity at the points which are either the intersections of interfaces or the intersections of interfaces with the boundary of the domain. The singularities that arises in the elliptic interface problems are very complex. In this article we propose an exponentially accurate nonconforming spectral element method for these problems based on [7, 18]. A geometric mesh is used in the neighbourhood of the singularities and the auxiliary map of the form z = ln ξ is introduced to remove the singularities. The method is essentially a least-squares method and the solution can be obtained by solving the normal equations using the preconditioned conjugate gradient method (PCGM) without computing the mass and stiffness matrices. Numerical examples are presented to show the exponential accuracy of the method.

Kirsi Majava and Xue-Cheng Tai [12] proposed a modified level set method for solving a free boundary problem associated with unilateral obstacle problems. The proximal bundle method and gradient method were applied to solve the nonsmooth minimization problems and the regularized problem, respectively. In this paper, we extend this approach to solve the bilateral obstacle problems and employ Rung-Kutta method to solve the initial value problem derived from the regularized problem. Numerical experiments are presented to verify the efficiency of the methods.
