A mixed regularization approach for sparse simultaneous approximation of parameterized PDEs
We present and analyze a novel sparse polynomial technique for the
simultaneous approximation of parameterized partial differential equations
(PDEs) with deterministic and stochastic inputs. Our approach treats the
numerical solution as a jointly sparse reconstruction problem through the
reformulation of the standard basis pursuit denoising, where the set of jointly
sparse vectors is infinite. To achieve global reconstruction of sparse
solutions to parameterized elliptic PDEs over both physical and parametric
domains, we combine the standard measurement scheme developed for compressed
sensing in the context of bounded orthonormal systems with a novel mixed-norm
based regularization method that exploits both energy and sparsity. In
addition, we are able to prove that, with minimal sample complexity, error
estimates comparable to the best -term and quasi-optimal approximations are
achievable, while requiring only a priori bounds on polynomial truncation error
with respect to the energy norm. Finally, we perform extensive numerical
experiments on several high-dimensional parameterized elliptic PDE models to
demonstrate the superior recovery properties of the proposed approach.Comment: 23 pages, 4 figure
A Modified Split Bregman Algorithm for Computing Microstructures Through Young Measures
The goal of this paper is to describe the oscillatory microstructure that can
emerge from minimizing sequences for nonconvex energies. We consider integral
functionals that are defined on real valued (scalar) functions which are
nonconvex in the gradient and possibly also in . To characterize
the microstructures for these nonconvex energies, we minimize the associated
relaxed energy using two novel approaches: i) a semi-analytical method based on
control systems theory, ii) and a numerical scheme that combines convex
splitting together with a modified version of the split Bregman algorithm.
These solutions are then used to gain information about minimizing sequences of
the original problem and the spatial distribution of microstructure.Comment: 34 pages, 10 figure
