This paper studies numerical methods for the approximation of elliptic PDEs with lognormal coefficients of the form $-{rm div}(a abla u)=f$ where $a=exp(b)$ and $b$ is a Gaussian random field. The approximant of the solution $u$ is an $n$-term polynomial expansion in the scalar Gaussian random variables that parametrize $b$. We present a general convergence analysis of weighted least-squares approximants for smooth and arbitrarily rough random field, using a suitable random design, for which we prove optimality in the following sense: their convergence rate matches exactly or closely the rate that has been established in cite{BCDM} for best $n$-term approximation by Hermite polynomials, under the same minimial assumptions on the Gaussian random field. This is in contrast with the current state of the art results for the stochastic Galerkin method that suffers the lack of coercivity due to the lognormal nature of the diffusion field. Numerical tests with $b$ as the Brownian bridge confirm our theoretical findings.

This work is a follow-up to our previous contribution (Convergence of sparse collocation for functions of countably many Gaussian random variables (with application to elliptic PDEs), SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 2018), and contains further insights on some aspects of the solution of elliptic PDEs with lognormal diffusion coefficients using sparse grids. Specifically, we first focus on the choice of univariate interpolation rules, advocating the use of Gaussian Leja points as introduced by Narayan and Jakeman (Adaptive Leja sparse grid constructions for stochastic collocation and high-dimensional approximation, SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 2014) and then discuss the possible computational advantages of replacing the standard Karhunen-Lo`eve expansion of the diffusion coefficient with the Levy-Ciesielski expansion, motivated by theoretical work of Bachmayr, Cohen, DeVore, and Migliorati (Sparse polynomial approximation of parametric elliptic PDEs. part II: lognormal coefficients, ESAIM: M2AN, 2016). Our numerical results indicate that, for the problem under consideration, Gaussian Leja collocation points outperform Gauss-Hermite and Genz-Keister nodes for the sparse grid approximation and that the Karhunen-Lo`eve expansion of the log diffusion coefficient is more appropriate than its Levy-Ciesielski expansion for purpose of sparse grid collocation.

There is an intimate connection between numerical upscaling of multiscale PDEs and scattered data approximation of heterogeneous functions: the coarse variables selected for deriving an upscaled equation (in the former) correspond to the sampled info rmation used for approximation (in the latter). As such, both problems can be thought of as recovering a target function based on some coarse data that are either artificially chosen by an upscaling algorithm, or determined by some physical measurement process. The purpose of this paper is then to study that, under such a setup and for a specific elliptic problem, how the lengthscale of the coarse data, which we refer to as the subsampled lengthscale, influences the accuracy of recovery, given limited computational budgets. Our analysis and experiments identify that, reducing the subsampling lengthscale may improve the accuracy, implying a guiding criterion for coarse-graining or data acquisition in this computationally constrained scenario, especially leading to direct insights for the implementation of the Gamblets method in the numerical homogenization literature. Moreover, reducing the lengthscale to zero may lead to a blow-up of approximation error if the target function does not have enough regularity, suggesting the need for a stronger prior assumption on the target function to be approximated. We introduce a singular weight function to deal with it, both theoretically and numerically. This work sheds light on the interplay of the lengthscale of coarse data, the computational costs, the regularity of the target function, and the accuracy of approximations and numerical simulations.

In this paper, we study adaptive neuron enhancement (ANE) method for solving self-adjoint second-order elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs). The ANE method is a self-adaptive method generating a two-layer spline NN and a numerical integrati on mesh such that the approximation accuracy is within the prescribed tolerance. Moreover, the ANE method provides a natural process for obtaining a good initialization which is crucial for training nonlinear optimization problem. The underlying PDE is discretized by the Ritz method using a two-layer spline neural network based on either the primal or dual formulations that minimize the respective energy or complimentary functionals. Essential boundary conditions are imposed weakly through the functionals with proper norms. It is proved that the Ritz approximation is the best approximation in the energy norm; moreover, effect of numerical integration for the Ritz approximation is analyzed as well. Two estimators for adaptive neuron enhancement method are introduced, one is the so-called recovery estimator and the other is the least-squares estimator. Finally, numerical results for diffusion problems with either corner or intersecting interface singularities are presented.
In this paper, we demonstrate the construction of generalized Rough Polyhamronic Splines (GRPS) within the Bayesian framework, in particular, for multiscale PDEs with rough coefficients. The optimal coarse basis can be derived automatically by the ra ndomization of the original PDEs with a proper prior distribution and the conditional expectation given partial information on edge or derivative measurements. We prove the (quasi)-optimal localization and approximation properties of the obtained bases, and justify the theoretical results with numerical experiments.
We propose a generalized multiscale finite element method (GMsFEM) based on clustering algorithm to study the elliptic PDEs with random coefficients in the multi-query setting. Our method consists of offline and online stages. In the offline stage, w e construct a small number of reduced basis functions within each coarse grid block, which can then be used to approximate the multiscale finite element basis functions. In addition, we coarsen the corresponding random space through a clustering algorithm. In the online stage, we can obtain the multiscale finite element basis very efficiently on a coarse grid by using the pre-computed multiscale basis. The new GMsFEM can be applied to multiscale SPDE starting with a relatively coarse grid, without requiring the coarsest grid to resolve the smallest-scale of the solution. The new method offers considerable savings in solving multiscale SPDEs. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method for several multiscale stochastic problems without scale separation.
