A smooth soluble abstract linear parabolic equation with the periodic condition on the solution is treated in a separable Hilbert space. This problem is solved approximately by a projection-difference method using the Galerkin method in space and the implicit Euler scheme in time. Effective both in time and in space strong-norm error estimates for approximate solutions, which imply convergence of approximate solutions to the exact solution and order of convergence rate depending of the smoothness of the exact solution, are obtained.

The Optimal Variational Method (OVM) is introduced and applied for calculating approximate periodic solutions of “truly nonlinear oscillators”. The main advantage of this procedure consists in that it provides a convenient way to control the convergence of approximate solutions in a very rigorous way and allows adjustment of convergence regions where necessary. This approach does not depend upon any small or large parameters. A very good agreement was found between approximate and numerical solution, which proves that OVM is very efficient and accurate.

AbstractIn this paper, we study the large-time behavior of a numerical scheme discretizing drift–diffusion systems for semiconductors. The numerical method is finite volume in space, implicit in time, and the numerical fluxes are a generalization of the classical Scharfetter–Gummel scheme which allows to consider both linear or nonlinear pressure laws.We study the convergence of approximate solutions towards an approximation of the thermal equilibrium state as time tends to infinity, and obtain a decay rate by controlling the discrete relative entropy with the entropy production. This result is proved under assumptions of existence and uniform in time
