The ubiquity of semilinear parabolic equations has been illustrated in their numerous applications ranging from physics, biology, to materials and social sciences. In this paper, we consider a practically desirable property for a class of semilinear parabolic equations of the abstract form $u_t=mathcal{L}u+f[u]$ with $mathcal{L}$ being a linear dissipative operator and $f$ being a nonlinear operator in space, namely a time-invariant maximum bound principle, in the sense that the time-dependent solution $u$ preserves for all time a uniform pointwise bound in absolute value imposed by its initial and boundary conditions. We first study an analytical framework for some sufficient conditions on $mathcal{L}$ and $f$ that lead to such a maximum bound principle for the time-continuous dynamic system of infinite or finite dimensions. Then, we utilize a suitable exponential time differencing approach with a properly chosen generator of contraction semigroup to develop first- and second-order accurate temporal discretization schemes, that satisfy the maximum bound principle unconditionally in the time-discrete setting. Error estimates of the proposed schemes are derived along with their energy stability. Extensions to vector- and matrix-valued systems are also discussed. We demonstrate that the abstract framework and analysis techniques developed here offer an effective and unified approach to study the maximum bound principle of the abstract evolution equation that cover a wide variety of well-known models and their numerical discretization schemes. Some numerical experiments are also carried out to verify the theoretical results.

We develop and analyze a class of maximum bound preserving schemes for approximately solving Allen--Cahn equations. We apply a $k$th-order single-step scheme in time (where the nonlinear term is linearized by multi-step extrapolation), and a lumped m ass finite element method in space with piecewise $r$th-order polynomials and Gauss--Lobatto quadrature. At each time level, a cut-off post-processing is proposed to eliminate extra values violating the maximum bound principle at the finite element nodal points. As a result, the numerical solution satisfies the maximum bound principle (at all nodal points), and the optimal error bound $O(tau^k+h^{r+1})$ is theoretically proved for a certain class of schemes. These time stepping schemes under consideration includes algebraically stable collocation-type methods, which could be arbitrarily high-order in both space and time. Moreover, combining the cut-off strategy with the scalar auxiliary value (SAV) technique, we develop a class of energy-stable and maximum bound preserving schemes, which is arbitrarily high-order in time. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the accuracy of the proposed method.
In this paper stability and error estimates for time discretizations of linear and semilinear parabolic equations by the two-step backward differentiation formula (BDF2) method with variable step-sizes are derived. An affirmative answer is provided t o the question: whether the upper bound of step-size ratios for the $l^infty(0,T;H)$-stability of the BDF2 method for linear and semilinear parabolic equations is identical with the upper bound for the zero-stability. The $l^infty(0,T;V)$-stability of the variable step-size BDF2 method is also established under more relaxed condition on the ratios of consecutive step-sizes. Based on these stability results, error estimates in several different norms are derived. To utilize the BDF method the trapezoidal method and the backward Euler scheme are employed to compute the starting value. For the latter choice, order reduction phenomenon of the constant step-size BDF2 method is observed theoretically and numerically in several norms. Numerical results also illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for linear and semilinear parabolic equations.
Relying on the classical connection between Backward Stochastic Differential Equations (BSDEs) and non-linear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs), we propose a new probabilistic learning scheme for solving high-dimensional semi-linear par abolic PDEs. This scheme is inspired by the approach coming from machine learning and developed using deep neural networks in Han and al. [32]. Our algorithm is based on a Picard iteration scheme in which a sequence of linear-quadratic optimisation problem is solved by means of stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithm. In the framework of a linear specification of the approximation space, we manage to prove a convergence result for our scheme, under some smallness condition. In practice, in order to be able to treat high-dimensional examples, we employ sparse grid approximation spaces. In the case of periodic coefficients and using pre-wavelet basis functions, we obtain an upper bound on the global complexity of our method. It shows in particular that the curse of dimensionality is tamed in the sense that in order to achieve a root mean squared error of order ${epsilon}$, for a prescribed precision ${epsilon}$, the complexity of the Picard algorithm grows polynomially in ${epsilon}^{-1}$ up to some logarithmic factor $ |log({epsilon})| $ which grows linearly with respect to the PDE dimension. Various numerical results are presented to validate the performance of our method and to compare them with some recent machine learning schemes proposed in Han and al. [20] and Hure and al. [37].
A class of optimal control problems of hybrid nature governed by semilinear parabolic equations is considered. These problems involve the optimization of switching times at which the dynamics, the integral cost, and the bounds on the control may chan ge. First- and second-order optimality conditions are derived. The analysis is based on a reformulation involving a judiciously chosen transformation of the time domains. For autonomous systems and time-independent integral cost, we prove that the Hamiltonian is constant in time when evaluated along the optimal controls and trajectories. A numerical example is provided.
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 th at 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.
