A convergent method for linear half-space kinetic equations
(2017-04-23)We give a unified proof for the well-posedness of a class of linear half-space equations with general incoming data and construct a Galerkin method to numerically resolve this type of equations in a systematic way. Our main ... -

A Priori Generalization Analysis of the Deep Ritz Method for Solving High Dimensional Elliptic Equations
This paper concerns the a priori generalization analysis of the Deep Ritz Method (DRM) [W. E and B. Yu, 2017], a popular neural-network-based method for solving high dimensional partial differential equations. We derive ... -
A quasinonlocal coupling method for nonlocal and local diffusion models
(2017-04-23)In this paper, we extend the idea of "geometric reconstruction" to couple a nonlocal diffusion model directly with the classical local diffusion in one dimensional space. This new coupling framework removes interfacial ... -
