Applications of a space-time FOSLS formulation for parabolic PDEs
Gregor Gantner, Rob Stevenson
Abstract
Abstract In this work, we show that the space-time first-order system least-squares formulation (Führer, T. & Karkulik, M. (2021) Space–time least-squares finite elements for parabolic equations. Comput. Math. Appl.92, 27–36) for the heat equation and its recent generalization (Gantner, G. & Stevenson, R. (2021) Further results on a space-time FOSLS formulation of parabolic PDEs. ESAIM Math. Model. Numer. Anal.55, 283–299) to arbitrary second-order parabolic partial differential equations can be used to efficiently solve parameter-dependent problems, optimal control problems and problems on time-dependent spatial domains.
