Abstract
In the present article, we consider a class of elliptic partial differential equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions and where the operator is div(−a(x)∇·), with a continuous and positive over (Formula presented.), Ω being an open and bounded subset of (Formula presented.), d≥1. For the numerical approximation, we consider the classical (Formula presented.) Finite Elements, in the case of Friedrichs–Keller triangulations, leading, as usual, to sequences of matrices of increasing size. The new results concern the spectral analysis of the resulting matrix-sequences in the direction of the global distribution in the Weyl sense, with a concise overview on localization, clustering, extremal eigenvalues, and asymptotic conditioning. We study in detail the case of constant coefficients on Ω=(0,1)2 and we give a brief account in the more involved case of variable coefficients and more general domains. Tools are drawn from the Toeplitz technology and from the rather new theory of Generalized Locally Toeplitz sequences. Numerical results are shown for a practical evidence of the theoretical findings.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
