Descrizione

This course provides a concise introduction to some prominent subjects in functional analysis theory and its application to the analysis and numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs). Specifically, starting from Banach spaces and basic topological considerations, we will focus on compactness, Hilbert spaces, compact operators, the Lax-Milgram theorem, and Galerkin discretization for linear elliptic PDEs. In addition, we will consider the classical Banach fixed-point theory, and continue with more general fixed point iterations for nonlinear operators (e.g., Newton type and Kacanov schemes). Eventually, we will discuss domain decomposition methods of both overlapping and iterative substructuring types, as well as the abstract Schwarz framework, including stable decomposition estimates and interface conditions.
