The subject of this work is a new stochastic Galerkin method for second-order elliptic partial differential equations with random diffusion coefficients. It combines operator compression in the stochastic variables with tree-based spline wavelet approximation in the spatial variables. Relying on a multilevel expansion of the given random diffusion coefficient, the method is shown to achieve optimal computational complexity up to a logarithmic factor. In contrast to existing results, this holds in particular when the achievable convergence rate is limited by the regularity of the random field, rather than by the spatial approximation order. The convergence and complexity estimates are illustrated by numerical experiments.

Our objective is to stabilise and accelerate the time-domain boundary element method (TDBEM) for the three-dimensional wave equation. To overcome the potential time instability, we considered using the Burton--Miller-type boundary integral equation (BMBIE) instead of the ordinary boundary integral equation (OBIE), which consists of the single- and double-layer potentials. In addition, we introduced a smooth temporal basis, i.e. the B-spline temporal basis of order $d$, whereas $d=1$ was used together with the OBIE in a previous study [Takahashi 2014]. Corresponding to these new techniques, we generalised the interpolation-based fast multipole method that was developed in \cite{takahashi2014}. In particular, we constructed the multipole-to-local formula (M2L) so that even for $d\ge 2$ we can maintain the computational complexity of the entire algorithm, i.e. $O(N_{\rm s}^{1+\delta} N_{\rm t})$, where $N_{\rm s}$ and $N_{\rm t}$ denote the number of boundary elements and the number of time steps, respectively, and $\delta$ is theoretically estimated as $1/3$ or $1/2$. The numerical examples indicated that the BMBIE is indispensable for solving the homogeneous Dirichlet problem, but the order $d$ cannot exceed 1 owing to the doubtful cancellation of significant digits when calculating the corresponding layer potentials. In regard to the homogeneous Neumann problem, the previous TDBEM based on the OBIE with $d=1$ can be unstable, whereas it was found that the BMBIE with $d=2$ can be stable and accurate. The present study will enhance the usefulness of the TDBEM for 3D scalar wave problems.
In this paper, we study two kinds of structure-preserving splitting methods, including the Lie--Trotter type splitting method and the finite difference type method, for the stochasticlogarithmic Schr\"odinger equation (SlogS equation) via a regularized energy approximation. We first introduce a regularized SlogS equation with a small parameter $0<\epsilon\ll1$ which approximates the SlogS equation and avoids the singularity near zero density. Then we present a priori estimates, the regularized entropy and energy, and the stochastic symplectic structure of the proposed numerical methods. Furthermore, we derive both the strong convergence rates and the convergence rates of the regularized entropy and energy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first result concerning the construction and analysis of numerical methods for stochastic Schr\"odinger equations with logarithmic nonlinearities.
We derive a priori error of the Godunov method for the multidimensional Euler system of gas dynamics. To this end we apply the relative energy principle and estimate the distance between the numerical solution and the strong solution. This yields also the estimates of the $L^2$-norm of errors in density, momentum and entropy. Under the assumption that the numerical density and energy are bounded, we obtain a convergence rate of $1/2$ for the relative energy in the $L^1$-norm. Further, under the assumption -- the total variation of numerical solution is bounded, we obtain the first order convergence rate for the relative energy in the $L^1$-norm. Consequently, numerical solutions (density, momentum and entropy) converge in the $L^2$-norm with the convergence rate of $1/2$. The numerical results presented for Riemann problems are consistent with our theoretical analysis.
We study dynamical Galerkin schemes for evolutionary partial differential equations (PDEs), where the projection operator changes over time. When selecting a subset of basis functions, the projection operator is non-differentiable in time and an integral formulation has to be used. We analyze the projected equations with respect to existence and uniqueness of the solution and prove that non-smooth projection operators introduce dissipation, a result which is crucial for adaptive discretizations of PDEs, e.g., adaptive wavelet methods. For the Burgers equation we illustrate numerically that thresholding the wavelet coefficients, and thus changing the projection space, will indeed introduce dissipation of energy. We discuss consequences for the so-called `pseudo-adaptive' simulations, where time evolution and dealiasing are done in Fourier space, whilst thresholding is carried out in wavelet space. Numerical examples are given for the inviscid Burgers equation in 1D and the incompressible Euler equations in 2D and 3D.

In this work we undertake a thorough study of the non-asymptotic properties of the vanilla generative adversarial networks (GANs). We derive theoretical guarantees for the density estimation with GANs under a proper choice of the deep neural networks classes representing generators and discriminators. In particular, we prove that the resulting estimate converges to the true density $\mathsf{p}^*$ in terms of Jensen-Shannon (JS) divergence at the rate $(\log{n}/n)^{2\beta/(2\beta+d)}$ where $n$ is the sample size and $\beta$ determines the smoothness of $\mathsf{p}^*$. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first result in the literature on density estimation using vanilla GANs with JS convergence rates faster than $n^{-1/2}$ in the regime $\beta > d/2$. Moreover, we show that the obtained rate is minimax optimal (up to logarithmic factors) for the considered class of densities.
This paper is concerned with superconvergence properties of the direct discontinuous Galerkin (DDG) method for two-dimensional nonlinear convection-diffusion equations. By using the idea of correction function, we prove that, for any piecewise tensor-product polynomials of degree $k\geq 2$, the DDG solution is superconvergent at nodes and Lobatto points, with an order of ${\cal O}(h^{2k})$ and ${\cal O}(h^{k+2})$, respectively. Moreover, superconvergence properties for the derivative approximation are also studied and the superconvergence points are identified at Gauss points, with an order of ${\cal O}(h^{k+1})$. Numerical experiments are presented to confirm the sharpness of all the theoretical findings.
Standard Monte Carlo computation is widely known to exhibit a canonical square-root convergence speed in terms of sample size. Two recent techniques, one based on control variate and one on importance sampling, both derived from an integration of reproducing kernels and Stein's identity, have been proposed to reduce the error in Monte Carlo computation to supercanonical convergence. This paper presents a more general framework to encompass both techniques that is especially beneficial when the sample generator is biased and noise-corrupted. We show our general estimator, which we call the doubly robust Stein-kernelized estimator, outperforms both existing methods in terms of convergence rates across different scenarios. We also demonstrate the superior performance of our method via numerical examples.
In this paper, we revisit the $L_2$-norm error estimate for $C^0$-interior penalty analysis of Dirichlet boundary control problem governed by biharmonic operator. In this work, we have relaxed the interior angle condition of the domain from $120$ degrees to $180$ degrees, therefore this analysis can be carried out for any convex domain. The theoretical findings are illustrated by numerical experiments. Moreover, we propose a new analysis to derive the error estimates for the biharmonic equation with Cahn-Hilliard type boundary condition under minimal regularity assumption.
Variational methods are extremely popular in the analysis of network data. Statistical guarantees obtained for these methods typically provide asymptotic normality for the problem of estimation of global model parameters under the stochastic block model. In the present work, we consider the case of networks with missing links that is important in application and show that the variational approximation to the maximum likelihood estimator converges at the minimax rate. This provides the first minimax optimal and tractable estimator for the problem of parameter estimation for the stochastic block model with missing links. We complement our results with numerical studies of simulated and real networks, which confirm the advantages of this estimator over current methods.
