Large BV solution for isentropic gas dynamics system with initial data far from vacuum Appl. Math. Lett. (IF 3.848) Pub Date : 2020-11-23 Weiwei Yang; Shujun Liu
We give the global existence results for the isentropic gas dynamics system with large BV initial data, assuming that the initial data are far from vacuum. The distance of the initial data from vacuum may be so large depending on the initial BV bounds. A new scaling framework is introduced, and we obtain the crucial BV bounds estimates of the vanishing viscosity solutions with the help of this framework

An improved a posteriori error estimation for a parameterized singular perturbation problem Appl. Math. Lett. (IF 3.848) Pub Date : 2020-11-21 Jian Huang; Zhongdi Cen; Aimin Xu
In this paper a hybrid difference method is used to approximate a parameterized singular perturbation problem. An improved a posteriori error estimation for the difference scheme on an arbitrary mesh is given. A solution-adaptive algorithm based on the a posteriori error estimation is designed by equidistributing a monitor function. Numerical experiments show that the scheme is second-order uniformly
