A parameter robust numerical method for a two dimensional reaction-diffusion problem.

In this paper a singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion partial differential equation in two space dimensions is examined. By means of an appropriate decomposition, we describe the asymptotic behaviour of the solution of problems of this kind. A central finite difference scheme is constructed for this problem which involves an appropriate Shishkin mesh. We prove that the numerical approximations are almost second order uniformly convergent (in the maximum norm) with respect to the singular perturbation parameter. Some numerical experiments are given that illustrate in practice the theoretical order of convergence established for the numerical method

An hphp-Adaptive Newton-Galerkin Finite Element Procedure for Semilinear Boundary Value Problems

In this paper we develop an $hp$-adaptive procedure for the numerical solution of general, semilinear elliptic boundary value problems in 1d, with possible singular perturbations. Our approach combines both a prediction-type adaptive Newton method and an $hp$-version adaptive finite element discretization (based on a robust a posteriori residual analysis), thereby leading to a fully $hp$-adaptive Newton-Galerkin scheme. Numerical experiments underline the robustness and reliability of the proposed approach for various examples.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1408.522

Robust Numerical Methods for Singularly Perturbed Differential Equations--Supplements

The second edition of the book "Roos, Stynes, Tobiska -- Robust Numerical Methods for Singularly Perturbed Differential Equations" appeared many years ago and was for many years a reliable guide into the world of numerical methods for singularly perturbed problems. Since then many new results came into the game, we present some selected ones and the related sources.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1909.0827
