In this paper, we consider a parabolic problem with time-dependent heterogeneous coefficients. Many applied problems have coupled space and time heterogeneities. Their homogenization or upscaling requires cell problems that are formulated in space-time representative volumes for problems with scale separation. In problems without scale separation, local problems include multiple macroscopic variables and oversampled local problems, where these macroscopic parameters are computed. These approaches, called Non-local multi-continua, are proposed for problems with complex spatial heterogeneities in a number of previous papers. In this paper, we extend this approach for space-time heterogeneities, by identifying macroscopic parameters in space-time regions. Our proposed method space-time Non-local multi-continua (space-time NLMC) is an efficient numerical solver to deal with time-dependent heterogeneous coefficients. It provides a flexible and systematic way to construct multiscale basis functions to approximate the solution. These multiscale basis functions are constructed by solving a local energy minimization problems in the oversampled space-time regions such that these multiscale basis functions decay exponentially outside the oversampled domain. Unlike the classical time-stepping methods combined with full-discretization technique, our space-time NLMC efficiently constructs the multiscale basis functions in a space-time domain and can provide a computational savings compared to space-only approaches as we discuss in the paper. We present two numerical experiments, which show that the proposed approach can provide a good accuracy.

In this paper, we develop a space-time upscaling framework that can be used for many challenging porous media applications without scale separation and high contrast. Our main focus is on nonlinear differential equations with multiscale coefficients. The framework is built on nonlinear nonlocal multi-continuum upscaling concept and significantly extends the results in the proceeding paper. Our approach starts with a coarse space-time partition and identifies test functions for each partition, which plays a role of multi-continua. The test functions are defined via optimization and play a crucial role in nonlinear upscaling. In the second stage, we solve nonlinear local problems in oversampled regions with some constraints defined via test functions. These local solutions define a nonlinear map from macroscopic variables determined with the help of test functions to the fine-grid fields. This map can be thought as a downscaled map from macroscopic variables to the fine-grid solution. In the final stage, we seek macroscopic variables in the entire domain such that the downscaled field solves the global problem in a weak sense defined using the test functions. We present an analysis of our approach for an example nonlinear problem. Our unified framework plays an important role in designing various upscaled methods. Because local problems are directly related to the fine-grid problems, it simplifies the process of finding local solutions with appropriate constraints. Using machine learning (ML), we identify the complex map from macroscopic variables to fine-grid solution. We present numerical results for several porous media applications, including two-phase flow and transport.
We consider a minimal residual discretization of a simultaneous space-time variational formulation of parabolic evolution equations. Under the usual `LBB stability condition on pairs of trial- and test spaces we show quasi-optimality of the numerical approximations without assuming symmetry of the spatial part of the differential operator. Under a stronger LBB condition we show error estimates in an energy-norm which are independent of this spatial differential operator.
In this work, an $r$-linearly converging adaptive solver is constructed for parabolic evolution equations in a simultaneous space-time variational formulation. Exploiting the product structure of the space-time cylinder, the family of trial spaces that we consider are given as the spans of wavelets-in-time and (locally refined) finite element spaces-in-space. Numerical results illustrate our theoretical findings.
We obtain $L_p$ estimates for fractional parabolic equations with space-time non-local operators $$ partial_t^alpha u - Lu= f quad mathrm{in} quad (0,T) times mathbb{R}^d,$$ where $partial_t^alpha u$ is the Caputo fractional derivative of order $alpha in (0,1]$, $Tin (0,infty)$, and $$Lu(t,x) := int_{ mathbb{R}^d} bigg( u(t,x+y)-u(t,x) - ycdot abla_xu(t,x)chi^{(sigma)}(y)bigg)K(t,x,y),dy $$ is an integro-differential operator in the spatial variables. Here we do not impose any regularity assumption on the kernel $K$ with respect to $t$ and $y$. We also derive a weighted mixed-norm estimate for the equations with operators that are local in time, i.e., $alpha = 1$, which extend the previous results by using a quite different method.
We analyze Galerkin discretizations of a new well-posed mixed space-time variational formulation of parabolic PDEs. For suitable pairs of finite element trial spaces, the resulting Galerkin operators are shown to be uniformly stable. The method is compared to two related space-time discretization methods introduced in [IMA J. Numer. Anal., 33(1) (2013), pp. 242-260] by R. Andreev and in [Comput. Methods Appl. Math., 15(4) (2015), pp. 551-566] by O. Steinbach.
