A Finite Difference Fictitious Domain Wavelet Method for Solving Dirichlet Boundary Value Problem

In this paper, we introduce a Finite Difference Fictitious Domain Wavelet Method (FDFDWM) for solving two dimensional (2D) linear elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs) with Dirichlet boundary conditions on regular geometric domain. The method reduces the 2D PDE into a 1D system of ordinary differential equations and applies a compactly supported wavelet to approximate the solution. The problem is embedded in a fictitious domain to aid the enforcement of the Dirichlet boundary conditions. We present numerical analysis and show that our method yields better approximation to the solution of the Dirichlet problem than traditional methods like the finite element and finite difference methods.

APPLICATION OF THE FICTITIOUS DOMAIN METHOD FOR ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

The article shows the ways of applying the method of fictitious domains in solving problems for ordinary differential equations. In the introduction, a small review of the literature on this method, as well as methods for the numerical solution of these problems, is made. The problem statement for the method of fictitious domains for ordinary differential equations is considered. Further, the inequality of estimates was shown. The solution of the auxiliary problem approximates the solution of the original problem with a certain accuracy. The inequality of estimates is obtained in the class of generalized solutions. For the purpose of visual application of the fictitious domain method in problems, a boundary value problem for a one-dimensional nonlinear ordinary differential equation is considered. The problem was written in the form of a difference scheme and led to a solution using the sweep method. In the numerical solution of the problem, numerical calculations were carried out for various values of the parameter included in the auxiliary problem, based on the method of fictitious domains. The numbers of iterations, execution time, and graphs of these calculations are presented and analyzed.
