Explicit Matrices for Sparse Approximation
We show that girth can be used to certify that sparse compressed sensing matrices have good sparse approximation guarantees. This allows us to present the first deterministic measurement matrix constructions that have an optimal number of measurements for â„“_1/â„“_1 approximation. Our techniques are coding theoretic and rely on a recent connection of compressed sensing to LP relaxations for channel decoding
Boundary Treatment and Multigrid Preconditioning for Semi-Lagrangian Schemes Applied to Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman Equations
We analyse two practical aspects that arise in the numerical solution of
Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations by a particular class of monotone
approximation schemes known as semi-Lagrangian schemes. These schemes make use
of a wide stencil to achieve convergence and result in discretization matrices
that are less sparse and less local than those coming from standard finite
difference schemes. This leads to computational difficulties not encountered
there. In particular, we consider the overstepping of the domain boundary and
analyse the accuracy and stability of stencil truncation. This truncation
imposes a stricter CFL condition for explicit schemes in the vicinity of
boundaries than in the interior, such that implicit schemes become attractive.
We then study the use of geometric, algebraic and aggregation-based multigrid
preconditioners to solve the resulting discretised systems from implicit time
stepping schemes efficiently. Finally, we illustrate the performance of these
techniques numerically for benchmark test cases from the literature
