Preface
The present monograph is devoted to the construction and investigation of the
new high order of accuracy difference schemes for approximating the solutions of
regular and singular perturbation boundary-value problems for partial differential
equations. The construction is based on an exact difference scheme and Taylor's
decomposition on two or three points. This approach permits us to extend essentially a class of problems where the theory of difference methods is applicable.
Namely, now it is possible to investigate differential equations with variable coefficients and regular and singular perturbation boundary-value problems. The
investigation is based on new coercivity inequalities. The stability and coercive
stability estimates in various Banach norms for solutions of the high order of accuracy difference schemes of the initial-value problem for parabolic equations and
boundary-value problem for elliptic equations are obtained. This investigation is
based on the theory of positive operators, theory of semigroup operators and theory of interpolation of linear operators. The stability estimates for the solutions
of the high order of accuracy difference schemes of the initial-value problems for
hyperbolic equations are established. This investigation is based on the spectral
theory of self-adjoint positive definite operators in a Hilbert space. This approach
permits us to study the stability of the simple difference schemes for various partial differential equations. The simple first and second order of accuracy difference
schemes for delay partial differential equations are considered. The stability estimates for the solutions of these difference schemes of initial-value problems for
delay partial differential equations are established.
Let us give a brief description of the contents of our monograph. It consists
of eight chapters. In Chapter 1 we study first- and second-order linear difference
equations. These equations arise in numerical analysis of the approximate solutions
of boundary-value problems for ordinary and partial differential equations.
Chapter 2 presents the high order of accuracy single-step difference schemes
generated by an exact difference scheme or by Taylor's decomposition on two
points for the numerical solution of an initial-value problem for first-order differential equations and for a system of first-order differential equations. In general,
these difference schemes for the same problem are different. However, in the case of
a homogeneous equation or a system of differential equations with independent in
t coefficients, by using both methods we have exactly the same difference schemes.
Chapter 3 is devoted to study of the high order of accuracy two-step difference

Note that in recent years important progress has been made in the study
of the theory of high order of accuracy difference schemes for partial differential
equations from the viewpoint of applications of an exact difference scheme or
of Taylor's decomposition function on two or three points. Chapter 4 presents

Chapter 1
Linear Difference Equations
In the present chapter we consider first- and second-order linear difference equations. These equations arise in numerical analysis of approximate solutions of
boundary-value problems for ordinary and partial differential equations.
1.1
Difference Equations of the First Order
The first-order linear difference equations to be studied in this chapter may be

expressed in the form
(1.1)
where ak, bk , and'l/Jk are known numbers, Uk are unknown numbers, n is the given
integer. We will call Uk the value of grid function {udO' at the point with index
k.
A solution of the first-order difference equation (1.1) is a grid function {Yk}O
that satisfies (1.1) for all k, that is, (1.1) becomes an identity if we replace the
unknown grid function {udO' by {Yk}O'.
The initial-value problem associated with (1.1) is to find a solution {udO' of
the difference equation (1.1) satisfying the initial condition
Uo
= <p,
(1.2)
where <p is a given number.

To solve this problem, we must find a grid function {Yk}O' that not only
satisfies the difference equation (1.1) but also satisfies the initial condition Yo = <po
If bk :j; 0 for all k, 1 :S k :S n, then the difference equation (1.1) is equivalent
to the equation
(1.3)
where
Chapter 1. Linear Difference Equations
Theorem 1.1.1. There exists a unique solution of the initial-value problem (1.1)(1.2) and for the solution of (1.1)-(1.2) the formula
k
Uk = u(k,O)ep+ 2:u(k,j)epj,
j=l
(1.4)
u(k ")= {qk ... qj+1,k=l-j,

,J
1, k = J..
(1.5)
holds. Here
Proof. Using formulas (1.3) and (1.5) we can obtain formula (1.4) for k = 1.
Suppose that formula (1.4) is satisfied for k = m,
Um = u(m, O)ep +
2: u(m,j)epj.
j=l
From that and (1.3) it follows

m
Um+1
= qm+1 Um + epm+! = qm+!u(m,O)ep + 2:qm+1 u (m,j)epj + epm+1

j=l
Using formula (1.5), we can write
qm+1u(m,j) = u(m + l,j),j =I- m, u(m + 1, m + 1) = 1.

Therefore
Um+1 = u(m + 1, O)ep +
2: u(m + l,j)epj + u(m + 1, m + l)epm+1

j=l
m+1
= u(m
+ I,O)ep + 2: u(m + l,j)epj.

j=l
So, using mathematical induction we obtain formula (1.4) for any k. This completes
the proof of Theorem 1.1.1.
Theorem 1.1.2. Let Iqkl :S q. Then for solution Uk of the initial-value problem
(1.1) -(1.2) the stability inequality
k
IUkl :S qklepl + 2: qk- j !epjl

j=l
holds.
1.2. Difference Equations of the Second Order
The proof of Theorem 1.1.2 is based on formulas (1.4) and (1.5).

Finally, note that the boundary-value problem associated with (1.1) is to find
a solution Uk of the difference equation (1.1) and satisfying the supplementary
condition
(1.6)
auo + bUn = <p,
where a, band <p are given numbers.
If a or b are equal to 0, then the condition is called a local boundary condition.
If a f; 0 and b f; 0, then the condition is called a nonlocal boundary condition.
In a similar way we can obtain an analogous result for the solution of the
nonlocal boundary-value problem (1.1) and (1.6).
1.2
Difference Equations of the Second Order
The second-order linear difference equations to be studied in this chapter may be

expressed in the form
(1.7)
where ak, bk , Ck and 'lj;k are known numbers, Uk are unknown numbers, n is the
given integer. Suppose that ak f; 0 and bk f; 0 for all k.
The definition of a solution of a given second-order difference equation such
as (1.7) is like the definition of a solution of a difference equation such as (1.1).
The initial-value problem associated with (1.7) is to find a solution {udO' of
the difference equation (1.7) satisfying the initial conditions
Uo = <p, Ul = 'Ij;,
(1.8)
where <p and 'l/J are given numbers.

To solve this problem, we must find a grid function {Yk}O' that not only
satisfies the difference equation (1. 7) but also satisfies the initial conditions Yo = <p
and Yl = 'l/J.
The local boundary-value problem associated with (1.7) is to find a solution
{udO' of the difference equation (1. 7) satisfying the boundary conditions
(1.9)
where )1l,J.Ll,A.2,J.L2 are given numbers.
The nonlocal boundary-value problem associated with (1. 7) is to find a solution {udO' of the difference equation (1.7) satisfying the boundary conditions
QIUO
+ Q2 U l + f31U n + f32 u n-l = J.Ll,Q3 UO + Q4 U l + f33un + f34un-l = J.L2,
(1.10)
where Ql,Q2,Q3,Q4,f31,f32,f33,f34,J.Ll and J.L2 are given numbers.

Now we will consider the local boundary-value problem (1.7) and (1.9). To
solve them by computer we will use the following method which is called the
modified Gauss elimination method. We seek a solution of difference equations

(1.7) in the form
(1.11)
Uk = ak+ 1Uk+l + I1k+l , 0 :S k :S n - 1,
where
ak+l, 11k+1
are unknown coefficients. Hence we find
+ 11k = ak(ak+1 U k+l + 11k+1) + 11k

= akak+luk+1 + (akl1k+1 + 11k), 1 :S k :S n - 1.
Uk-1 = akUk
Now putting expressions for

[ak+1(akak - Ck)
Uk
and
Uk-1
into equation (1.7) we have
+ bk]Uk+1 + [11k +1 (akak -
Ck)
+ akl1k + 'lh]
= O.
The last equation is satisfied if we select

ak+l(akak - Ck)
11k +1(akak - Ck)
+ bk =
+ akl1k + 'k
0,
= 0,1 :S k :S n - 1.
From that it follows

(1.12)
The relations (1.12) are first-order nonlinear difference equations. For the
solution of difference equations (1.12) we need to find a1 and 111. We can find
them from Uo = Al U1 + J.L1. Thus, we have
(1.13)
For the first step using formulas (1.12) and (1.13), we can compute ak+1 and
1 :S k :S n - 1. For the second step we will find Uk, 0 :S k :S n. But, for this
we need to find Un' We can find Un from Un = Al Un -1 +J.L2 and U n -1 = an Un +I1n.
Namely
11k+1l
A111n
112
Un = .
1- A2an
(1.14)
Thus using formulas (1.11) and (1.14), we can compute Uk, 0 :S k :S n.

Finally note that when we apply algorithms (1.11), (1.12), (1.13) and (1.14), to
find a solution by computer of the boundary-value problems (1.7), (1.9), we need
(1.15)
for all k.
Theorem 1.2.1. Let for all k
(1.16)
and
IA11:S 1,IA21 < 1.
Then the requirements (1.15) and
lakl :S 1 for
all k are satisfied.
(1.17)
1.3. Difference Equations with Constant Coefficients
Proof. From (1.13) it follows that
lall = JAIl :S 1. Let lakl :S 1. We will prove that

lak+ll :S 1.
Namely
h -
akakl 2: ICkl-lakllakl 2: hl-Iakl 2: Ibkl > o.
From that it follows Ck - akak
Therefore,
::f 0 and
lakl :S 1 for all k, 1 :S k :S n.
From
lanl :S 1 and (1.11) it follows that
Thus Theorem 1.2.1 is proved.

Theorem 1.2.2. Let for all k
(1.18)
and lAd :S 1, IA21 :S 1. Then the requirements (1.15) and

satisfied.
lakl < 1 for all 1 < k are
The proof of Theorem 1.2.2 follows the scheme of the proof of Theorem 1.2.1.
1.3
Difference Equations with Constant Coefficients
The second-order linear homogeneous difference equation with constant coefficients may be written in the form
aUk-1 - CUk
+ bUk+l = 0,1 :S k < n,
(1.19)
where a, band c are given numbers. We put a ::f 0 and b ::f O.

Since for constant q and positive integer k,
it is easy to find if q is a root of the equation

a - cq + bq2 = 0;
(1.20)
if so, then the grid function {udo = {qk}O is the solution of equation (1.19).
Equation (1.20) is called the auxiliary equation associated with (1.19). The
auxiliary equation for (1.19) is of degree 2. The key quantity is c2 - 4ab, which is
known as the discriminant of the quadratic equation (1.20).
If C2 - 4ab is positive, there will be two real values for q and they are defined
by
C
ql,2 =
Jc 2
2b
4ab
(1.21)
Recall that given the grid functions {uno and {uno, if constants AI, A2, not all
zero, exist such that
or
Al u~ + A2u~ = 0,0 :s: k :s: n,

then the grid functions {uno and {uno are said to be linearly dependent.
If no such relation exists, the functions are said to be linearly independent.

That is, the grid functions {uno and {uno are linearly independent when the
last equation implies that Al = A2 = O.
It is easy to show that for any linearly independent grid functions {uno and
{uno, we can determine
~~
Uk _ l
~~
Uk - l
I,
such that the determinant is not equal to zero for any k,l
easy to show that the solutions
{uDo =
:s: k :s:
n. Then it is
{q~}o,{uno = {q~}o
are linearly independent and the general solution of (1.19) can be written at once.
It is
{Uk}O = {Clq~ + C2q~}O
(1.22)
in which CI, C2 are arbitrary constants.
If c2 - 4ab is zero, then the auxiliary equation (1.20) has repeated roots
q = ql = q2 It is easy to show that the grid functions {kffiqk}O' where m = 0,1
are linearly independent and the general solution of (1.19) is
{udo = {cIl + C2kqk}O
(1.23)
in which CI, C2 are arbitrary constants.

If c2 - 4ab is negative, then the auxiliary equation (1.20) has two complex
roots
C iJ4ab - c2
ql,2 =
2b
= rei<p,
where r
= Jf, tan cp = ~. It is easy to show that the grid functions

{r k sin kcp}o, {r k cos kcp}o
are linearly independent and the general solution of (1.19) is
{Uk}O =
in which
CI, C2
{CI r
k sin kcp + C2rk cos kcp}
are arbitrary constants.
(1.24)
Now using the variation of parameters method we will find the general solution of the nonhomogeneous equation
aUk-l - CUk
+ bUk+l
= <Pk, 1 :s: k
:s: n
- 1,
(1.25)
where a, b, c and <Pk are given numbers.

Namely, if {vd(}, {wd(} are linearly independent solutions of (1.25), then we
can use them to determine the general solution of the nonhomogeneous equation
(1.25). Suppose that
(1.26)
is a solution of (1.25). Let us see what happens if we replace both of the constants
in (1.25) with Ctk and 13k, respectively. That is, we consider
(1.27)
and try to determine Ctk and 13k so that the grid function {CtkVk
solution of the equation (1.25). From (1.27) it follows that
+ 13kwd(}
is a
(1.28)
+(Ctk+l - Ctk)Vk+l
+ (13k+l
- 13k)wk+l'
We now choose some particular function for the expression

(Ctk+l-Ctk)Vk+l +(13k+l-13k)wk+l.
Technically, we could let this grid function be {sin k<p} () , { qk}(), {cos k<p} () or any
other suitable grid function. For simplicity we choose
or
(Ctk - Ctk-l )Vk
+ (13k -
(1.29)
13k- dWk = O.
Then it follows from (1.28) that

Uk+l - Uk = Ctk(Vk+l - Vk)
or
Uk - Uk-l = Ctk-l
+ (Vk
+ 13k (Wk+l
- Wk)
+ 13k-l(wk -
- vk-d
wk-d
(1.30)
It is easy to see that from (1.25) it follows that

-a(Uk - uk-d
+ (a - c + b)Uk + b(Uk+l
- Uk) = <Pk, 1 :s: k < n.
We substitute (1.27) and (1.30) into equation (1.31) to obtain

-a[Ctk-l (Vk - vk-d
+ 13k-l (Wk
+b[Ctk(Vk+l - vd
- Wk-l)]
+ (a - c + b)[Ctkuk + 13kwk]
+ 13d w k+l
- Wk)] = <Pk,
(1.31 )
or
O!k[aVk-l - CVk
+ bVk+d + .8k[aWk-l -
+a[(O!k - O!k-d(Vk - vk-d
+ (.8k -
CWk
+ bWk+l]
.8k-d(Wk - Wk-l)] = <{}k
But VkS and WkS are solutions of the homogeneous equation (1.19), so that finally
Equations (1.29)and (1.32) now give us two equations that we wish to solve for
O!k - O!k-l and .8k - .8k-l. This solution exists provided that the determinant
Vk-l
Vk - Vk-l
Wk-l
Wk - Wk-l
does not vanish. But
and the last determinant is not equal to zero for the linearly independent solutions
{vdS and {wdS of equation (1.19). Therefore using equations (1.29)and (1.32)
we can find O!k - O!k-l and.8k - .8k-l. Namely
.8k - .8k-l =
Vk<{}k
a(vk-lwk - VkWk-l)
Hence using formula (1.4), we can find

k
O!k = O!o -
Wj<{}j
L a(vo-lwo - VoWo-l) ,
j=l
(1.33)
.8k = .80 + "

Vj<{}j
.
LJ
a(vo-lwo
- voWo-l)
j=l
J
J
J J
(1.34)
Thus, O!k and .8k of (1.33) and (1.34) may be inserted in (1.27) to give us the
general solution of equation (1.25)
(1.35)

Chapter 2
Difference Schemes for
First-Order Differential Equations
In the present chapter we consider the single step difference schemes generated
by an exact difference scheme or by Taylor's decomposition on two points for the
numerical solution of an initial-value problem for first-order differential equations
and systems of first-order differential equations.
2.1
Single-Step Exact Difference Scheme and Its Applications
We consider the initial-value problem of the form
y'(t)
+ a(t)y(t) =
f(t),O < t ::; T, y(O)
Yo
(2.1)
assuming a(t) and f(t) to be such that problem (2.1) has a unique smooth solution
defined on [0, T]. In this section we shall construct difference schemes of a high
order of accuracy for an approximate solution of problem (2.1). On the segment
[0, T] we consider the uniform grid space
[0, T]r = {tk = kr, k = 0, 1, ... , N, NT = T}

with step T > O. Here N is a fixed positive integer. We will discuss single-step difference schemes for computing numerical values of the solutions. These difference
schemes are step-by-step methods, that is, we start from the given approximate
values of y(tk-l) and proceed stepwise, computing approximate values of y(tk) at
the grid (mesh) points.

{y(tknS" is the solution of the initial-value problem for the first-order difference
equations

Putting t

e- I.'k-l a(z)dz f(s)ds.
Hence, we obtain the following relation between y(tk) and y(tk-d :
y(tk) = e- 1':_1 a(s)dsy(tk_l)

e- I:k a(z)dz f(s)ds.
tk-l
The last relation and equality (2.2) are equivalent. Theorem 2.1.1 is proved.
Thus, the solution yet) of the differential problem (2.1) at the grid points
t = tk is the solution of the difference problem (2.2). Therefore, the initial-value
problem (2.2) is called the single-step exact difference scheme for solution of the
initial-value problem (2.1).
Now, we will consider the applications of this exact difference scheme. From
(2.2) it is clear that for approximate solutions of problem (2.1) it is necessary to
approximate the expressions

Let us remark that in constructing difference schemes it is important to know

how to construct a right-hand side <P~,q that satisfies

Let us remark that in constructing such difference schemes we can choose <P~,q by
formulas (2.8) or (2.14) or (2.15) or (2.16) or (2.17) or (2.18). Thus, we construct
the difference schemes of (p + q)-order of accuracy for the approximate solution of
the initial-value problem (2.1). Finally, let us give some examples of the simplest
difference schemes.
In the case p + q = 1 from formulas (2.8), (2.14), (2.15), (2.19) and (2.20) it
follows that
Uk - Uk-1
-- + a(tk-duk-1 = f(tk-d, 1 ~ k

r

~ N, Uo =
Yo
(an implicit Euler's difference scheme of first order of accuracy for the initial-value
problem (2.1)).
20
In the case p + q = 2 from formulas (2.18), (2.20) it follows that
1 ~ k ~ N, Uo = Yo
(an explicit difference scheme of second order of accuracy for the initial-value
or

or
(an implicit difference scheme of second order of accuracy for the initial-value

Now, we consider the initial-value problem of the form
y'(t)
+ a(t)y(t) = f(t, y(t)), 0 < t
T, y(O)
= Yo
(2.22)
assuming a(t) and f(t, y(t)) to be such that problem (2.22) has a unique smooth
solution defined on [0, T]. The exact difference scheme of problem (2.22) obviously
has the form

From (2.23) it is clear that for the approximate solution of problem (2.22) it is
necessary to approximate the expressions
e- J,'kk-l a(s)ds

In exactly the same manner with approximate formulas for the expression

Thus, we construct the difference schemes of (p + q)-order of accuracy for approximate solutions of the initial-value problem (2.22). We observe that the difference
scheme (2.28) is a first-order nonlinear difference equation in Uk. Therefore we
use an iteration formula
23
1 :S k :S N, u~ = Yo, m = 1,2, ...
,u2 = Yo
But what about a criterion for stopping the iteration? We can use the criterion
of closeness of consecutive terms to terminate the iterative procedure of (2.29). If
there exists M for them
u~ _U~-l =o(r p +q )
for any k, 1 :S k :S N. Then we will put Uk = u~ for any k, 1 :S k :S N.
Now, we consider the initial-value problem of the first-order linear system
of ordinary differential equations. Let y(t) be an m-dimensional column unknown
vector function of t and f (t) a column vector whose components are known functions of t. Further suppose that A(t) is defined by
A(t) =
al.l.(.t)
(
aml (t)
be an m x m matrix function of t. Then the initial-value problem
y'(t)
+ A(t)y(t) = f(t), 0 < t :S T, y(O) = Yo
(2.30)
represents an initial-value problem for a system of m linear ordinary differential

equations

ft(t),
= fm(t)
(2.31)
24
be a solution y(t) of problem (2.30) at the mesh points t = ik. Then the exact
difference scheme of problem (2.30) obviously has the form
I1
= -;;
tk
tk-l
u(t, s )f(s)ds, 1 S k S N, y(O) = Yo,
where I is the m x m unit matrix. Here u(t, s) is the m x m matrix of functions

of t and s. It will be defined as a solution of the problems
au(t,s)
as
= u(t, s)A(s), 0 S sSt S T, u(t, t) = I,
au(t, s)
at = -A(t)u(t,s),O S sSt S T,u(s,s) = I.
(2.33)
(2.34)
It is easy to show that
u(t, s) = e-A(>-.)(t-s) - i t u(t, z)[A(z) - A(A)]e-A(>-')(Z-S)dz,

and
u(t, s) = e-A(>-.)(t-s) + it e-A(>-.)(t-Z) [A(A) - A(z)]u(z, s)dz

for any A, s :5 A :5 t. Hence we can write
U(tk, tk-l) = e-A(tk-d T

From (2.32) it follows that for an approximate solution of problem (2.30) it is

necessary to approximate the expressions U(tk' tk-d and

u(tk, tk_l).
Using Taylor's formula and formulas (2.35), (2.36) and (2.37), we

2.2. Taylor's Decomposition on Two Points and Its Applications

2.2 Taylor's Decomposition on Two Points and Its Applications

We consider again the initial-value problem (2.1). Utilization of Taylor's decomposition on two points in the construction of the single-step difference schemes of
a high order of accuracy for approximate solutions of problem (2.1) is based on
the following theorem.
Theorem 2.2.1. Let the function v(t)(O ::; t ::; T) have a (p
derivative and tk-1, tk
V(tk) - v(tk-d
+ I>l!jv(j) (ik)T j j=l
where
a = (p+q-j)!p!(-ljJ

for any j, 1 ::; j 5:. q.
(2.51 )
(2.52)
Proof. Using the formula for integration by parts, we obtain the representation

tk-l
p+q
L( -l)p+q-'((tk - s)q(s - tk-1)P)(P+q-')v(r)(s)1~~_1'

We will calculate the expressions
and

So,

Theorem 2.2.1 is proved.

Note that relation (2.51) is called Taylor's decomposition of function v(t) on
two points.
Now, we will consider applications of Taylor's decomposition of function on
two points. From (2.51) it is clear that for the approximate solution of problem
(2.1) it is necessary to find yi:~) for any j, 1 :S j :S p and yi:~-il for any j,
1 :S j :S q. Using the equation
y'(t)
-a(t)y(t)
+ f(t),
we obtain
(2.53)
where
a1(t) = -a(t), h(t) = f(t),

aj(t) = aJ'2 1(t) - aj-1(t)a(t),fj(t)
{
for any j, 2 :S j :S p.
= fj2 1(t) + aj-1(t)f(t),
(2.54)
Replacing y(j) (t) by (2.53) and neglecting the last term, we obtain the single-step
difference schemes of (p + q)-order of accuracy for the approximate solution of
problem (2.1)

Now let us give some examples for the constructed difference schemes.
In the case p + q = 1 from formulas (2.52), (2.54) and (2.55) it follows that

(an implicit difference scheme of second order of accuracy for the initial-value

Now, we consider again the initial-value problem (2.22). Using the equation
y'(t)
we obtain
-a(t)y(t) + f(t, y(t)),
y(j)(t) = aj(t)y(t) + fj(t, y(t)),

Finally, in this chapter we consider two types of arbitrary high order of
accuracy difference schemes generated by an exact difference scheme or Taylor's
decomposition on two points for the numerical solutions of an initial-value problem
for differential equations and systems of differential equations. They are different
types of difference schemes for the same problem. Nevertheless, in the case of
a homogeneous equation or system of differential equations with independent in
t coefficients using the two types of methods above, we have exactly the same
difference schemes.
Chapter 3
Difference Schemes for
Second-Order Differential Equations
In the present chapter we consider the two-step difference schemes generated by
an exact difference scheme or by Taylor's decomposition on three points for the
numerical solutions of an initial-value problem and a boundary-value problem for
second-order differential equations.
3.1
Two-Step Exact Difference Scheme and Its Applications
We consider the initial-value problem of the form
y" (t)
+ a(t)y(t)
= f(t), 0< t ::; T, y(O) = Yo, y'(O) = y~
(3.1)
defined on [0, T]. For the construction of difference schemes we consider again the
uniform grid space
[O,T]r={tk=kT, k=O,l, ... ,N, Nr=T}.

The construction of two-step difference schemes of an arbitrary high order of accuracy for approximate solutions of the initial-value problem (3.1) is based on the
following theorem.
Theorem 3.1.1. Let y(tk) be a solution of problem (3.1) at the grid points t = tk.
Then {y(tknS' is the solution of the initial-value problem for the following secondorder difference equations:

where

Proof. Using the relations (3.3) we can obviously write the equivalent initial-value
problem for a system of first-order linear differential equations

y: (t)
{
~ v(t), y(O) ~ Yo, y' (0) ~ y;,
(3.4)
v (t) - ib(t)v(t) = f(t).
Integrating these, we at once obtain

so, using the condition y' (0)

Therefore

In a similar manner, using the definition of /(t, s) and the formula for v(t), we get

From this it follows (3.2) for any k, 1 ::; k ::; N - 1. The identity (3.2) in the case
k = 1 follows from (3.5). Theorem 3.1.1 is proved.
Let us note that the initial-value problem (3.2) is called the two-step exact
difference scheme for the solution of the initial-value problem (3.1).
Note that for b(t) we have a system of first-order nonlinear differential equations of Riccati type (3.3). Therefore for the smooth a(t) there exist smooth solutions of this system defined on the segment [0, T]. We will choose one of these
smooth solutions b(t) = br(t) + ibi(t),
t ::; T.
(3.2) it is clear that for the approximate solutions of problem (3.1) it is necessary
to approximate the expressions

Let us remark that in constructing difference schemes it is important to know how

to construct a right-hand side <P~,q that satisfies

and is sufficiently simple. The choice formula <P~,q is not unique. Using Taylor's
formula, with respect to the function
on the variable z, we obtain
(3.9)
where
3::; m
::; p + q.
(3.10)
Using Taylor's formula, with respect to the function

(3.11)
where
3::; m

(3.12)
Moreover, for the construction of <P~,q we will use (3.9) and (3.11). But, first of all
let us study the approximate formulas for the expressions
44
that will be needed for the construction of difference schemes of a high order of
accuracy for the approximate solution of problem (3.1). First, let us consider the
approximate formulas for the expression

Further, using the last formulas and Pade fractions for the function e- z (see Chapter 2), we can write
r1(h,tk-d = R[T],m-[T]+l(i7b(tk))
(3.13)

write

In the sequel we denote that if n <
Rn,m(x)
(m < 0), then
= Ro,m+n(x)(Rn,m(x) = Rm+n,O(x)), n + m
::: 0.
Third, let us consider approximate formulas for the expression
Using Taylor's formula, we can write

(3.15)
where dn(s) = Dn (s)I 2 (s, tk),
Dn(S) = 0, n < 0,
{ Do(s) = 1, Dn+l(s)
= D~(s)
+ 2ib(s)D n(s), 0::; n.
Fourth, let us consider approximate formulas for the expression

(3.16)
where dn(s) = Dn (s)I- 2 (s, tk). Note that dn(tk) = dn(tk) for any n.
Now, using formulas (3.9), (3.10), (3.11), (3.12), (3.13), (3.14), (3.15), (3.16)
and neglecting the last small terms o(r p+q), 'P~,q can be defined by the formula

Thus, we constructed the difference schemes of (p + q)-order of accuracy for the
approximate solution of the initial-value problem (3.1). Finally, let us give some
examples of the simplest difference schemes.
In the case p + q = 1 from formulas (3.17), (3.18), (3.19), (3.20), (3.21),

Now, we consider the boundary-value problem of the form
-y" (t)
+ a(t)y(t)
= f(t), 0< t ~ T, y(o) = Yo, y(T) = Yr
(3.25)
defined on [0, T]. But for existence of a unique solution of the boundary-value
problem (3.25) we need some estimate from below of a(t).
For the construction of difference schemes we consider again the uniform grid
space
[0, T]r = {tk = kT, k = 0,1, ... , N, NT = T}.
The construction of the two-step difference schemes of an arbitrary high order of
accuracy for the approximate solutions of the boundary-value problem (3.25) is
based on the following theorem.
Theorem 3.1.2. Let y(tk) be a solution of problem (3.25) at the grid points t = tk.
Then {y(tknS" is the solution of the boundary-value problem for the second-order
difference equations

J(t, s) = e- J; b()")dJ..,
where b(t) is a solution of the equation

b2 (t) - b'(t) = a(t),
and the following estimate holds:
b(t) ~ bo > 0, ~ t ~ T.
(3.27)
(3.28)
60
Proof. Using relation (3.27), we can obviously write the equivalent boundary-value
problem for a system of first-order linear differential equations
y' (:) + b(t)y(t) = v(t), yeO) ~ Yo, YeT) ~ !IT,

-v (t) + b(t)v(t) = f(t).

+ I; e- I: b(>')d>'v(s)ds,
{ v(t) = e- I,r b(>')d>'v(T) + It e- It b(>')d>' f(z)dz.

That is,
y(t) = J(t,O)yO + I; J(t,s)v(s)ds,

{
v(t) = J(T, t)v(T)
+ It J(z, t)f(z)dz.
From these formulas and the condition y(T) = YT it follows that
y(T) = J(T, O)YO +
lT
J(T, s)

Since IoT e- 2Is b(>')d>'ds t=- 0, then

T
- [
( [ J(T,,)J(Z,S)dS) f(z)dz].
So, we have that
v(t)
~ J(T, t) (iT J'(T, S)d')
-iT (J.T

[,(T) - J(T, O)Yo
J(T,S)J(Z,S)d.s) f(z)dz] +

By an interchange of the order of integration, we obtain

Now, putting t = tk+l, t = tk and t = tk-l into the formula for g(t) and using the

So, using the last formula and the identities (3.30) and (3.31) we obtain the following relation between y(tk+l), y(tk) and y(tk-d:

From this it follows (3.26) for any k, 1 ::; k ::; N - 1. Theorem 3.1.2 is proved.
Let us note that the boundary-value problem (3.26) is called the two-step
exact difference scheme for solution of the boundary-value problem (3.25).
Note that for b(t) we have the Riccati differential equation (3.27). Therefore
for the smooth a(t) there exists a smooth positive solution of this differential
equation defined on the segment [0, T].
(3.26) it is clear that for the approximate solutions of the problem (3.25) it is

3.2
Taylor's Decomposition on Three Points and Its Applications
We consider again the initial-value problem (3.1). The utilization of Taylor's decomposition on three points in the construction of the two-step difference schemes
of a high order of accuracy for the approximate solutions of problem (3.1) is based
on the following two theorems.
Theorem 3.2.1. Let 17m, m = 1, ... ,q be a solution of the system

L

(3.47)
78
Let the function v(t) (0 ::; t ::; T) have a (2p + 2q + 2)-th continuous derivative
and tk-1, tk, tk+ 1 E [0, TJr. Then the following relation holds:
V(tk+1) - 2V(tk)
+ V(tk-1) -
L (}:jV(2 j )(tk)r 2j
P
(3.48)
j=l
- L '1]j(V(2 j )(tk-I) + V(2j) (tk+1))r 2j = o(r2p+2q+2),

q

where

- '1]j -
'1]m
for any j,2::; j ::; q,
(2(j~m))!)2
(2(j~m))!)2 ~:~ any
j, q + 1 ::;
Proof. We obtain the formula
(3.49)
(2p + 2q + l)!(V(tk+d - 2V(tk)

~ (2p + 2q + I)! 2
L.J
j=l
(2)!
J

Using the formula of integration by parts, we obtain

In a similar manner one can show that

Now, using formulas (3.49) and (3.50), we obtain that

Note that the relation (3.48) is called Taylor's decomposition of function v(t)
on three points.
83
Now, we will consider the applications of Taylor's decomposition of function

on three points to approximate solutions of the initial-value problem (3.1) and
boundary value problem (3.25).
We consider two cases: the simple case when a(t) = a, for any t E [0, T] and
the general case when a(t) is the smooth function defined on the segment [0, T].
Let a(t) = a, for any t E [0, T]. First, we consider an initial-value problem
(3.1). From (3.48) it is clear that for the approximate solution of problem (3.1) it

Thus, we constructed the difference schemes of (2p + 2q)-order of accuracy

for the approximate solution of the boundary-value problem (3.25). Finally, let us
give some examples of the simplest difference schemes.
In the case p + q = 1 from formula (3.56) it follows that

(a difference scheme of second order of accuracy for the boundary-value problem

Now, let a(t) be the smooth function defined on the segment [0, T]. First,
we consider an initial-value problem (3.1). From (3.48) it is clear that for the
approximate solution of problem (3.1) it is necessary to find Y~;:? for any j, 1 ~
j ~ p and yg;~l)'
yg;:Jl for any j, 1 ~ j ~ q. Using the equation

y"(t) = -a(t)y(t) + f(t),
we obtain
y(2 j )(t)
y(2 j+1)(t)
A 2j (t)y(t) + B 2j (t)y'(t) + hj(t),

A2j+l(t)y(t) + A2j+1(t)y'(t) + hj+1(t),j = 1, ... , (3.57)
where
A 2(t) = -a(t), B 2(t) = 0, h(t) = f(t),

A 3 (t) = -a'(t), B 3 (t) = -a(t), h(t) = f'(t),
A 2j (t) = Ab-1 (t) - B2j - 1(t)a(t), B2j (t) = A 2j - 1(t) + B~j_1 (t),
hj(t) = f~j-1 (t) + B 2j - 1(t)f(t),j = 2,3, ... ,
A2j +l(t) = A;j(t) - B 2j (t)a(t), B 2j +l(t) = A 2j (t) + B~j(t),
hj+1 (t) = f~j(t) + B 2j (t)f(t),j = 2,3, ....
(3.58)
From (3.51) it is clear that for the approximate solution of the problem (3.1) it is
necessary to find y(tk)' y(tk-Jl and y(tk+Jl' The choice formula for y(tk)' Y(tk-Jl and
88
Y(tk+l) is not unique. First, we consider the approximation of Y(T)' Using formulas
(3.53) and (3.57), we obtain that

Thus, we constructed the difference schemes of (2p + 2q)-th order of accuracy for

The choice of Taylor's decomposition on three points in the construction

Note that using this Taylor decomposition on three points, we can extend our
discussion to construct difference schemes of an arbitrary high order of accuracy
for the approximate solutions of the initial-value problem (3.1) and the boundaryvalue problem (3.25). It is left to the reader.
Chapter 4
Partial Differential Equations
of Parabolic Type
In the present chapter we consider the well-posedness of an abstract Cauchy problem for differential equations of parabolic type,
v'(t) + A(t)v(t) = f(t)
(0::; t ::; T), v(O) = vo,
in an arbitrary Banach space with the linear positive operators A(t). The high
order of accuracy difference schemes generated by an exact difference scheme or
by Taylor's decomposition on two points for the numerical solutions of this problem
are presented. The well-posedness of these difference schemes in various Banach
spaces are studied. The stability and coercive stability estimates in Holder norms
for the solutions of the high order of accuracy difference schemes of mixed type
boundary-value problems for parabolic equations are obtained.
4.1
A Cauchy Problem. Well-posedness
We consider the abstract Cauchy problem for differential equations
v'(t) + A(t)v(t) = f(t)
(0::; t ::; T), v(O) = vo
(4.1)
in an arbitrary Banach space E with the linear (unbounded) operators A(t). Here
v(t) and f(t) are the unknown and the given functions, respectively, defined on
[0, T] with values in E. The derivative v' (t) is understood as the limit in the norm
of E of the corresponding ratio of differences. A( t) is a given, closed, linear operator
in E with domain D(A(t)) = D, independent of t and dense in E. Finally, Vo is a
given element of E.
A function v(t) is called a solution of problem (4.1) if the following conditions
are satisfied:
i. v(t) is continuously differentiable on the segment [0, T]. The derivatives at
the endpoints of the segment are understood as the appropriate unilateral
derivatives.
Chapter 4. Partial Differential Equations of Parabolic Type
100
ii. The element v(t) belongs to D = D(A(t)) for all t E [0, T] and the function
A(t)v(t) is continuous on [0, T].
iii. v(t) satisfies the equation and the initial condition (4.1).
A solution of problem (4.1) defined in this manner will from now on be

referred to as a solution of problem (4.1) in the space C(E) = C([O, T], E). Here
C(E) stands for the Banach space of all continuous functions <p(t) defined on [0, T]
with values in E equipped with the norm
From the existence of such solutions evidently follows that f(t) E C(E) and
Vo E D.
We say that problem (4.1) is well posed in C(E) if the following conditions
are satisfied:
f(t) E C(E) and any Vo E D. This

means that an additive and homogeneous operator v(t) = v(t; f(t), vo) is
defined which acts from C(E) x D to C(E) and gives the solution of problem
(4.1) in C(E).
1. Problem (4.1) is uniquely solvable for any
2. v(t; f(t), vo), regarded as an operator from C(E) x D to C(E), is continuous.

Here C(E) x D is understood as the normed space of the pairs (f(t), vo),
f(t) E C(E) and Vo E D, equipped with the norm
11(f(t),vo)llc(E)XD = Ilfllc(E) + IlvollD.

By Banach's theorem in C(E) and these properties one has coercive inequality
Ilv'IIC(E)
+ IIA(.)vllc(E)
~ Mc[llfllc(E)
IlvollD],
(4.2)
where Mc (1 ~ Mc < +00) does not depend on Vo and f(t). This inequality
is called the coercivity inequality in C(E) for (4.1). If A(t) = A, then the coercivity inequality implies analyticity of the semigroup exp{ -sA} (s 2 0), i.e., the
estimates
lIexp(-sA)II E->E' IlsAexp(-sA)IIE->E ~ M (s > 0)
hold for some M E [1, +00). Thus, the analyticity of the semigroup exp{ -sA},
(s 2 0) is a necessary for the well-posedness of problem (4.1) in C(E). Unfortunately, the analyticity of the semigroup exp{ -sA}(s 2 0) is not sufficient for the
well-posedness of problem (4.1) in C(E).
Suppose that for each t E [0, T] the operator -A(t) generates an analytic
semigroup exp{ -sA(t)}(s 2 0) with exponentially decreasing norm, when s --+
+00, i.e., the estimates
Ilexp( -sA(t))IIE->E' IlsA(t) exp( -sA(t))IIE->E ~ M e- 6s (s > 0)
(4.3)

4.1. A Cauchy Problem. Well-posedness
hold for some M E [1, +(0), 8 E (0, +(0). From this inequality it follows that
operator A-I (t) exists and is bounded and hence A(t) is closed in C(E) .
Suppose that the operator A(t)A -1 (s) is Holder continuous in t in the uniform operator topology for each fixed s, that is,
II[A(t) - A(T)]A- 1 (s)IIE .....E ~ Mit - Tlo,O < E ~ 1,
(4.4)
where M and E are positive constants independent of t, sand T for ~ t, s, T ~ T.

An operator-valued function v(t, s), defined and strongly continuous jointly
in t, s for ~ s < t ~ T, is called a fundamental solution of (4.1) if
1) the operator v(t, s) is strongly continuous in t and s for

2) the following identity holds:
v(t,s)
= V(t,T)V(T,S),V(t,t) = I
for
s
~
<t
T,
t ~ T,
3) the operator v(t, s) maps the region D into itself. The operator u(t, s) =
A(t)v(t,s)A- 1 (s) is bounded and strongly continuous in t and s for ~ s <
T,
4) on the region D the operator v(t, s) is strongly differentiable relative to t and

s, while
8v(t,s) _ -A() ( )
8t tv t, s
and
8v(t,
8s s) = v ( t, s )A()
s.
v( t, s) is also called an evolution operator, Green's function, etc.

H the function f(t) is not only continuous, but also continuously differentiable
on [0, T] and Vo E D, it is easy to show that the formula
J
t
v(t) = v(t,O)vo +
(4.5)
v(t,s)f(s)ds
gives a solution of problem (4.1). Here v( t, s) is the fundamental solution of (4.1).

Now we shall establish a series of interesting lemmas and estimates concerning
the semigroup exp{ -sA(t)}(s 2 0) and the fundamental solution v(t, s) of (4.1)
which will be useful in the sequel.

and estimate (4.3), we obtain that

Ilexp( -sA(t)) - exp {-(s

The inequality
+ r)A(t)}II E---' E ~

follows from (4.3) and the triangle inequality. Therefore

+ r)A(t)}IIE---.E ~ M I min{l, ~}.

From this it follows that

lIexp( -sA(t)) - exp {-(s

Interpolating the last inequality and

lIexp( -sA(t)) - exp {-(s

we obtain (4.6). Lemma 4.1.1 is proved.

G(p) is strongly differentiable with respect to p with derivative

G'(p) = - exp{ -(r - p)A(t)}A(t) exp{ -pA(s)}u

Since G' (p) is continuous in p, (4.7) follows upon integrating the last identity from

where M 2: 0 and 0> 0 do not depend on c, t, sand 7.

Proof. Let u E E. Then

Combining the estimates for L 1 (t), L 2 (t), L 3 (t) and L 4 (t), we obtain estimate

Estimate (4.22) is established. Lemma 4.1.5 is proved.
A function v(t) is said to be a solution of problem (4.1) in F(E) if it is a
solution of this problem in C(E) and the function v'(t) and A(t)v(t) belong to
F(E).
As in the case of the space C(E), we say that problem (4.1) is well posed in
F(E), if the following two conditions are satisfied:
115
1. For any f(t) E F(E) and Vo E D there exists the unique solution v(t) =
v(t; f(t), vo) in F(E) of problem (4.1). This means that an additive and
homogeneous operator v(t; f(t), vo) is defined which acts from F(E) x D to
F(E) and gives the solution of (4.1) in F(E).
2. v(t; f(t), vo), regarded as an operator from F(E) x D to F(E), is continuous.Here F(E) x D is understood as the normed space of the pairs (f(t), vo),
f(t) E F(E) and Vo E D, equipped with the norm
11(f(t), vo)IIF(E)xD = IIfIlF(E) + II voliD.

First, we set F(E) equal to C~,Q(E) = C~,Q([O, T], E), 0 < 0: < 1, the Banach
space obtained by completion of the set of smooth E-valued functions cp(t) on [0, T]
in the norm
II cp IlcQQ(E)= IIcpIlC(E)
o
IIcp(t + 7) - cp(t) liE
sup
O:St<t+r:ST
(t + 7) .
Q
As in the case of the space C(E), from the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem
(4.1) one derives the coercivity inequality
Ilv/llc~'Q(E) + IIA(.)vllc~'Q(E) ::; MC(o:)[lIfllc~'Q(E)
IIA(O)voliel ,
(4.27)
where Mc (0:)(1 ::; Mc(o:) < +00) does not depend on Vo and f(t).
Theorem 4.1.6. Suppose Vo E D, f(t) E C~,Q(E). Suppose that assumptions (4.3)
and (4.4) hold and 0 < 0: ::; ::; 1. Then the Cauchy problem (4.1) is well posed
in Holder space C~,Q(E). For the solution v(t) in

the coercive inequality

C~,Q(E)
II f
of the Cauchy problem
Ilc~,Q(E) +M II A(O)voIlE
holds, where M does not depend on 0:, Vo and f(t).

Proof. If v(t) is a solution in C~,Q(E) of problem (4.1), then it is a solution in
C(E) of this problem. Hence, by (4.5), we have the representation
v(t) = v(t, O)vo
v(t, s)f(s)ds.
To prove the theorem we must show that the functions v'(t) and A(t)v(t) belong
to C~,Q (E) and finally obtain estimates for the norms of these functions. Here we
address only the last task. Using formula (4.5), we obtain
A(t)v(t)
A(t)v(t, O)vo
A(t)v(t, s)dsf(t)

A(t)v(t, s)(f(s) - f(t))ds

h(t) =

Let us estimate Jk(t) for any k = 1,2,3 separately. We start with J1 (t). Using
estimate (4.18), we show that, for 0::; t ::; T,
11J1(t)IIE::; IIA(t)v(t,0)A- 1 (0)IIE--+EIIA(0)voIIE::; MIIA(O)voIIE'

Further, applying (4.23), we show that, for 0 < t < t + 7 < T,
11J1 (t + 7) - h(t)IIE ::; IIA(t + 7)V(t + 7,0) - A(t)v(t, O)]A- 1 (O)IIE--+EIIA(O)voIlE

Since a ::; c, we have proved that

Now let us estimate J2(t). Using property 4) of vet, s), we can write

A(t)v(t, s)[A(t) - A(s)]A- 1 (t)dsf(t).
Using this formula and estimates (4.4), (4.18), (4.21) and (4.24), we obtain

Let us give, without proof, the following result.
Theorem 4.1.9. Suppose vb E E{3_" f(t) E Cg"(E)(O :S "( :S {3,0 < (3 < 1).
Suppose that assumptions (4.3) and (4.4) hold and 0 < (3 :S :S 1. Then for the

hold, where M does not depend on (3, "(, vb and f(t). Here, Iwlg" denotes that the
norm of the Banach space Eg" consists of those wEE for which the norm
is finite.
138
Note that the parameter, can be chosen freely in [0, (3), which increases the
number offunction spaces in which problem (4.1) is well posed. In particular, it is
important that problem (4.1) is well posed in the Holder space without a weight
(r = 0).
Problem (4.1) is not well posed in C(E) for arbitrary E. It turns out that
a Banach space E can be restricted to a Banach space E' in such a manner that
the restricted problem (4.1) in E' will be well posed in C(E'). The role of E' will
be played here by the fractional spaces Eo: = Eo:(E, A(t)) (0 < a < 1).
Theorem 4.1.10. Suppose A(O)vo E Eo:, f(t) E C(Eo:) (0 < a < 1). Suppose that
assumptions (4.3) and (4.4) hold and 0 < a :S :S 1. Then for the solution v(t) in

A(t)v(t) = A(t)v(t, O)vo +

Combining the estimates for It, /2, we obtain estimate (4.48). Theorem 4.1.10 is
proved.
Theorem 4.1.11. Suppose that assumption (4.3) holds. Suppose that the operator
A(t)A-1(S) is Holder continuous in t in the uniform operator topology for each

For our third step, let us study now problem (4.1) in the spaces Cg'''(Ea -f3),

Let vb E E~'!f3and f(t) E Cg'''(Ea - f3 ), (0 ~ I ~ 13 ~ a, 0 < a < 1). Then for the

Let vb E E a -" and f(t) E Cg'''(Ea -,,), (0 ~ I ~ 13 ~ a, 0 < a < 1). Then for the

IIE"--r + II f II cg,-r(E,,_/3)]
holds, where M does not depend on a, 13, I, vb and f(t).
I

Note that the spaces of smooth functions Cg'''(Ea - f3 ), in which coercive

solvability has been established, depend on the parameters a, 13 and I' However,
the constants in the coercive inequalities depend only on a. Hence, we can choose
the parameters 13 and I freely, which increases the number of function spaces
in which problem (4.1) is well posed. In particular, Theorem 4.1.13 implies the
well-posedness Theorem 4.1.10 in C(Ea ) established in the above.
Fourth, let us study now the Cauchy problem (4,1) in the spaces Lp(E) =
Lp([O,T],E), (1 ~ P < 00) of all strongly measurable E-valued functions v(t) on
[0, T] for which the norm
(J II
T
II V IILp(E)=
is finite.
v(t)
II~ dt):'
141
A function v(t) is said to be absolutely continuous if it has a derivative v'(t)

for almost every t such that v'(t) E Ll(E) and if the Newton-Leibniz formula
J
t
v(t) - V(T) =
v'(s)ds
7'
holds for all t, T E [0, T]. Here the integral is understood in the sense of Bochner.
A function v(t) is said to be a solution of problem (4.1) in Lp(E) if it is absolutely continuous, the functions v'(t) and A(t)v(t) belong to Lp(E), and equation
(4.1) is satisfied for almost every t and v(O) = Va. From this definition it follows
that a necessary condition for the solvability of problem (4.1) in Lp(E) is that
f(t) E Lp(E). It will be shown that in certain cases this condition is also sufficient for the solvability of problem (4.1). As concerns the boundary elements, in
contrast to the situation considered earlier, from the solvability of problem (4.1)
in Lp(E) it follows only that Va E E. In the case of an unbounded operator A(t)
this does not allow us to prove the solvability of problem (4.1).
From the unique solvability of (4.1) it follows that the operator v(t; f(t), va)
is bounded in Lp(E) and one has coercive inequality
Ilv'IILp(E) + IIA(.)v(t)IILp(E) ~ Me[llfIILp(E) + IIA(O)voIIEJ,

where Me (1 ~ Me < +(0) does not depend on Vo and f(t).
Let us give, without proof, the following results.
Theorem 4.1.14. Suppose that assumptions (4.3) and (4.4) hold and 0 <
E ~ 1
Suppose problem (4.1) is well posed in L po (E) for some Po, 1 < Po < 00. Then it
is well posed in Lp(E) for any p,l < p < 00 and the coercivity inequality holds:

M(pO)p2
p _ 1 IlfIILp(E) + MllvoIIE,_,/P,P'
where M(po) and M does not depend on p, Vo and f(t). Here the Banach space

IlvIlE,_,/p,P =
l"A(t) exp{ -zA(t)}ll~dz
lip
(l~p<oo)
is finite.
~ p ~ 00 and 0 < a < 1. Suppose that assumptions (4.3)
and (4.4) hold and a ~ E ~ 1. Then problem (4.1) is well posed in Lp(Ea,p) and
the coercivity inequality holds:
Theorem 4.1.15. Let 1

where M does not depend on a:, p, va and f (t).
142
~ p ~ 00 and 0 < 0: < 1. Suppose that assumption (4.3)

holds. Suppose that the operator A(t)A-1(s) is Holder continuous in t in the uniform operator topology for each fixed s, that is,
where M and E: are positive constants independent oft, sand T for 0 ~ t, s, T ~ T.

Then problem (4.1) is well posed in Lp(Ea,p) and the coercivity inequality holds:
where M does not depend on

0:,
p, Va and f(t).
< p, q <
Suppose that assumptions (4.3) and (4.4)

hold and 0 < 0: ~ E: < 1. Then problem (4.1) is well posed in Lp(Ea,q) and the
coercivity inequality holds:
00.
where M(q) and M does not depend on 0:, p, Va and f(t).

Theorem 4.1.18. Let 1 < p, q <
00. Suppose that assumption (4.3) holds. Suppose

that the operator A(t)A-1(s) is Holder continuous in t in the uniform operator
topology for each fixed s, that is,
where M and E: are positive constants independent of t, sand T for 0 ~ t, s, T ~ T.

Then problem (4.1) is well posed in Lp(Ea,q) and the coercivity inequality holds:
where M(q) and M does not depend on
0:,
p, Va and f(t).
Finally, we consider the applications of these results to the parabolic equations. First, we consider the mixed boundary-value problem for parabolic equation
~~ - a(t,x)~:~ +<5u = f(t,x),O < t ~ T,O < x < 1,
{ u(O,x) = cp(x), f(O,x) = 0, ~ x ~ 1,

u(t,O) = u(t, 1), ux(t,O) = ux(t, 1), ~ t ~ T,
(4.50)
where a(t, x), cp(x) and f(t, x) are given sufficiently smooth functions and a(t, x) >
0, 8 > 0 is a sufficiently large number.
143
We introduce the Banach spaces C13[O, 1] (0 < (3 < 1) of all continuous

functions <p(x) satisfying a Holder condition for which the following norms are
finite:
l<p(x + T) - <p(x)1
II <P Ilc 13 [o,I]=11 <P Ilc[o,11 +
sup
13
O~x<x+T~1
where C[O, 1] is the space of all continuous functions <p(x) defined on [0,1] with
the usual norm
II <p Ilc[o,I]= orr~II<p(x)l.
It is known that the differential expression
At,xv = -a(t, x)v"(t, x) + <5v(t, x)

defines a positive operator At,x acting in C13[O, 1] with domain CI3+2[0, 1] and
satisfying the conditions v(t,O) = v(t, 1), vx(t, 0) = vx(t, 1).
Therefore, we can replace the mixed problem (4.50) by the abstract Cauchy
problem (4.1). Using the results of Theorems 4.1.6, 4.1.8, 4.1.9, 4.1.10, 4.1.11,
4.1.12 and 4.1.13, we can obtain that
Theorem 4.1.19. For the solution of the mixed problem (4.50) the following coercive
inequalities are valid:

Second, let n be the unit open cube in the n-dimensional Euclidean space

We introduce the Banach spaces 1(n) ((3 = ((31, ... ,(3n), 0 < Xk < 1, k =

Therefore, we can replace the mixed problem (4.51) by the abstract Cauchy
problem (4.1). Using the results of Theorems 4.1.6, 4.1.8, 4.1.9, 4.1.10, 4.1.11,
4.1.12 and 4.1.13, we can obtain that

Let us consider a differential operator with constant coefficients of the form
acting on functions defined on the entire space Rn. Here r E R n is a vector with
nonnegative integer components, Irl = rl +... +rn' If <p (y) (y = (Yl, ... , Yn) E Rn)
is an infinitely differentiable function that decays at infinity together with all
its derivatives, then by means of the Fourier transformation one establishes the
equality
F (B<p) (~) = B (~) F (<p) (~).
Here the Fourier transform operator is defined by the rule

The function B

(4.53)

acting on functions defined on the space IR n , satisfies the inequalities
for ~ =I O. Problem (4.52) has a unique smooth solution. This allows us to reduce
problem (4.52) to the abstract Cauchy problem (4.1) in a Banach space E =
GJ-J, (Rn) of all continuous bounded functions defined on IRnsatisfying a Holder
condition with the indicator fJ, E (0,1) with a strongly positive operator At,x =
Bt,x + 8I defined by (4.52).

The proof of Theorem 4.1.21 is based on the abstract Theorems 4.1.6,4.1.8,

operator A t,x in GJ-J, (Rn) and on the following theorem on the structure of the

In this section we consider the difference schemes of a high order accuracy for the
approximate solutions of problem (4.1). On the segment [0, T] we consider again
a uniform grid space
[0, T]r
= {tk = kT, k = 0, 1, ... , N, NT = T}
147
4.2. Difference Schemes Generated by an Exact Difference Scheme
with step r > 0. Here N is a fixed positive integer. From formula (4.5) it follows
that

V(tk, s)f(s)ds, 1 :S k :S N, v(o) = Vo

or
(4.54)
= fk, fk

V(tk, s)f(s)ds, 1 :S k :S N, Uo = Vo

The last system is called the single-step exact difference scheme for the solution of the initial-value problem (4.1).
Let us investigate the well-posedness of the exact single-step difference
scheme (4.54). This problem is uniquely solvable and the following formula holds:
Uk
V(tk, O)uo +
L V(tk, tj) !Jr.
(4.55)

Let us reduce the difference scheme (4.54) to an operator problem in the space
FT(E) of vectors v T = {vd~=l' Recall that the space FT(E) can be equipped with
various norms and thus become a normed space. Thus, for instance, the vector
space FT(E) generates the normed space CT(E) = C([O, T]T, E) with the norm

First we will define the operator Dr, acting from the space E x Fr(E) of vectors
wr = {wd~=o into the space Fr(E) of vectors v r = {Vd~=1 by the rule
v r = Drw r ,Vk =
~(Wk
7
wk-d, k = 1, ... , N.
Second we will define an operator A r from the space E x Fr(E) of vectors wr =

{Wk}~=O into the space Fr(E) of vectors v r = {Vk}~=1 by the rule
v r = Arw r ,Vk =
7-
(1 - V(tk, tk-1) )Wk-1, k = 1, ... , N.
Next, let us introduce the continuation operator II(uo), which acts from Ex Fr(E)
to Fr(E) according to the rule
II(uo)(u1, ... ,uN)
(uo,UI, ... ,UN).
Then the difference schemes (4.54) can obviously be rewritten as the equivalent
operator equation
Here
DrII(uo)u r + ArII(uo)u r
is defined by the formula
The last operator problem will be considered in the space Fr(E). From its unique
E Fr(E) it follows that its solution u r defines
solvability for any Uo E E and
an additive and homogeneous operator ur(r, uo).
The initial-value difference problem (4.54) is said to be stable in Fr(E) if we
have the stability inequality
r,
where M is independent not only of

Uo but also of 7.
From formula (4.55) one derives the following results.
Theorem 4.2.1. Suppose that assumptions (4.3) and (4.4) hold and 0
Then difference problem (4.54) is stable in C r (E).
Then difference problem (4.54) is stable in C::'cE).

The initial-value difference problem (4.54) is said to be well posed (coercively

stable) in Fr(E) if we have the coercive inequality
II {7- 1(Uk - uk-d}f' Ik(E) + II ArII(uo)urIIFT(E)
::; M[li r IIFT(E) + II A(O)uoIIEJ,

r, Uo but also of
7.
149
Since the initial-value differential problem (4.1) in G(E) is not well posed
for the unbounded operator A(t) and space E, then the well-posedness of the
difference initial-value in Gr(E) norm does not take place uniformly with respect
to T > O. This means that the coercive norm
tends to 00 as T -+ +0. The investigation of the difference problem (4.54) permits

us to establish the order of growth of this norm to 00.
Theorem 4.2.4. Suppose that assumptions (4.3) and (4.4) hold and 0 < E ::S 1.
The solutions of the difference problem (4.54) in GT(E) obey the almost coercive
inequality
II uT IIKT(E) ::S Mdll A(O)uoII E
(4.56)
+ min{ln~, 1 + lIn IIA(O)IIE.-d//I

where M 1 is independent not only of
r,
Uo,
IlcT(E)],
but also of T.
Proof. Using formula (4.55), we can write
k-1
+L
T- 1(1 - V(tk, h-1)V(tk-1, tj ) liT = Jk
+ Gk,
j=l
where
k-1
Gk = L(1 - V(tk, tk-d)v(tk-1, tj)
!J.
j=1
Let us estimate Jk and Gk separately. We start with Jk. Using property 4) of

v(t,s) and estimates (4.17), (4.18) and (4.21), we obtain
IIT- 1 (1 - V(tk, tk-1))V(tk-1,O)A- 1(O)IIE.-E ::S M,l ::S k::S N,
(4.58)
11(1 -V(tk,tk-I))V(tk-1,0)IIE.-E::S Mmin{l,TIIA(O)IIE.-E},l::S k::S N.
(4.59)
From estimate (4.58) it follows that
IIJk II E::S II T- 1(1 - V(tk, tk-1))V(tk-1, 0)A- 1(0)IIE.-EIIA(0)uo II E

::S MIIA(O)uoIIE
for all k, k = 1, ... ,N. Using the last inequality, we obtain
150
Now let us estimate Gk separately. From estimate (4.59) it follows that

for all k, k = 1, ... ,N. Using the last inequality, we obtain

(4.60)
Further, using the triangle inequality, we obtain

k-l
IIGk II E ::;
L II (I - V(tk, tk-l))V(tk-l, tj)IIE->Ellf j liE

k-l

Finally, the estimate
follows from (4.60) and (4.61). Combining the estimates for JT and GT, we obtain

The estimate for II{T- 1(uk - Uk-1)}f"llc r(E) follows from the triangle inequality
and the last estimate. Theorem 4.2.4 is proved.
Now let us study the well-posedness of the difference problem (4.54) in the
various Banach spaces.
Theorem 4.2.5. Suppose that assumptions (4.3) and (4.4) hold and O<a:Sc:S1.
The solutions of the difference problem (4.54) in C::,Q(E) obey the coercivity inequality

The proof of Theorem 4.2.5 follows the scheme of the proof of Theorem 4.1.6
and relies on estimates (4.3), (4.4), (4.17), (4.18), (4.19), (4.20), (4.21), (4.22),

Note that the spaces Ce'''!(Eex -f3) of grid functions, in which coercive solvability has been established, depend on the parameters a, (3 and 'Y. However, the
constants in the coercive inequalities depend only on a. Hence, we can choose the
parameters (3 and 'Y freely, which increases the number of spaces of grid functions
in which difference problem (4.54) is well posed.
Now let us consider the initial-value difference problem (4.54) in the spaces

Now, we will consider the applications of this exact difference scheme (4.54).
From (4.54) it is clear that for the approximate solutions of problem (4.1) it is
fttkk_l
V(tk, s)f(s)ds is not unique. In this section we

The choice of V(tk, tk-l) and ~
consider two approaches. The first approach is carried out in three steps. Applying
the definition of v(t, s), we can write

v(t, s)
Vi(t, s) =

Vi(t, s), vo(t, s)
= exp{ -(t -

Therefore, in the first step we consider

Suppose that the operator N(t)A(z)A-(r+l)(s) satisfies the condition

If 0 ::; r ::; iii, then it follows that

From the formula for u[(k, n) it is clear that for the approximate calculation of
u[(k,n) it is necessary to approximate the expressions A(t),exp{-sA(z)} and
their product. For an analytic semigroup we have the formula
L 'lMt, s; A, B),
00
exp{ -(t - s)A} - exp{ -(t - s)B} =
i=l
where
'l/Ji(t, s; A, B) =
it
'l/Ji-l(t, z;

'l/Jo(t,s,A,B) = exp{-(t - s)B},O::; s::; t::; T.

Therefore, in the second step applying the last formula and Taylor's formula and
neglecting the small terms, we can write
m-T-al
x(A(Zr-l) - A(zr))
'l/Ja"a2[Zn t k-l;A(zr-l),A(tk-d]dzr

Finally, in the third step replacing the operator exp{ -7 A( tk- t}} by its Pade

Here [a] denotes the integer part of a> O. In exactly the same manner using the
1
three steps, we can obtain the formula for fk' such that
Ilfk - fk,IIIE ::; Mr l +j ,

where M does not depend on r.
Thus, replacing the operator V(tk, tk-d by uT(k, k - 1)) and the elements !k
by elements fk,l, we obtain the difference schemes of approximation order I + j,

on the solutions v(t) of the Cauchy problem (4.1).

Note that the difference schemes (4.63) for j = I - I and j = I - 2 include
difference schemes of arbitrary high order of approximation. Moreover, the main
corresponding functions Rj,l(z) tend to 0 as z --+ 00 for j = l - 2, I - 1. Such
difference schemes are simplest, in the sense that the degrees of the denominators
of the corresponding Pade approximants of the function exp{ - z} are minimal for
a fixed order of approximation of the difference schemes.
Now let us give, without proof, the following estimates concerning Rj,1 (r A( t))
for j = l - 1 and j = l - 2 which will be useful in the sequel.
Lemma 4.2.16. Suppose that the assumption (4.3) holds. Then for any t, t, E [0, T]
the following estimates are satisfied:
IIRj,l(rA(t))IIE--.E ::; M,l ::; k::; N,
(4.64)

(4.67)
Here M does not depend on k, rand r.
(4.66)
159
Now we shall investigate the well-posedness of the single-step difference

schemes (4.63). This problem is uniquely solvable and the formula
+ L u T(k,r)f;,17
k
Uk = uT(k,O)uo
(4.68)

holds, where
uT(k, n) =

{
I,k = n.
(4.69)
FT(E) of vectors v T = {Vk}~=1' Recall that the space FT(E) can be equipped with
the various norms and thus become a normed space.

First we will define the operator D n acting from the space E x FT(E) of
vectors wT = {wd~=o into the space FT(E) of vectors v T = {Vk}~=1 by the rule
Second we will define an operator AT from the space E x FT(E) of vectors wT =

{wd~=o into the space FT(E) of vectors v T = {Vd~=1 by the rule
v T = ATwT,Vk
= 7- 1 (1 -
uT(k, k - 1) )Wk-1, k
= 1, ... , N.
Next, let us introduce the continuation operator II(uo), which acts from Ex FT(E)
to FT (E) according to the rule
II(uo)(u1, ... ,UN) = (UO,U1, ... ,UN).

The last operator problem will be considered in the space FT(E). From its unique
solvability for any Uo E E and r E FT(E) it follows that its solution uT defines
an additive and homogeneous operator uT(r, uo) and is continuous.
The initial-value difference problem (4.63) is said to be stable in FT (E) if we

Let us prove a number of estimates for uT(k, n) that will be needed in the
sequel. First we consider ii7(k, n) defined by
ii,T(k,k-1)ii,T(n+1,n),k>n,
ii,T(k, n) =
(4.70)
I,k = n,
where ii,T(k, k - 1) = Rj,l(rA(tk-d).

Lemma 4.2.17. For any 0 ::; n ::; r ::; k ::; N the following identities hold:
ii,T(k,n) = ii,T(k,r)ii,T(r,n),O::; n::; k::; k::; N,
(4.71)
ii,T(k, n) = R7,ln(rA(t n-d)
(4.72)
r=n+1

(4.73)
k
r=n+1
R77(rA(tr _t})[Rj,l(rA(tk-1)) - Rj,l(rA(tr_ 1))]ii,T(r -1,n).
Proof. Identity (4.71) follows from the definition of ii,T (k, n). Using formula (4.70),
we obtain
r- 1(ii,T(k, n) - ii,T(k - 1, n)) + r- 1(1 - Rj,l(rA(tq_d)ii,T(k - 1,n)

r- 1(R j ,l(rA(tq_d) - Rj,l(rA(tk_d))ii,T(k - 1, n)
for any 1 ::; q ::; N. Therefore
ii,T(k,n) = R7,ln(rA(tq -d)
R77(rA(t q -1))
r=n+1
x [Rj,l(rA(tq _1)) - Rj,l(rA(tr_d)]ii,r(r -1,n).

Choosing q = k, we obtain the identity (4.72). In a similar manner one establishes
the identity (4.72). Lemma 4.2.17 is proved.
Lemma 4.2.18. Suppose that assumption (4.62) holds for r
o::; n < k ::; N
= O. Then for any
the following estimates hold:

(4.74)

161
(4.75)
~n)r'
(4.76)
where M 2 0 does not depend on r, k, n.

Proof. Using identity (4.72) and estimates (4.64), (4.65) and
IHRj,l(rA(tt-l)) - Rj,l(rA(tn-l)] A-1(tn-l)IIE->E :S M(r - n)r 2 ,
(4.77)
we obtain
r=n+l

Therefore,

IluT(k, r)IIE->E r.
r=n+l
Now using the difference analogy of the integral inequality, we obtain (4.74). In a
similar manner one establishes the inequality (4.75). Interpolating estimates (4.64)
IIA~ (t)Rj,l(rA(t))IIE->E :S M(kT)-~, 1 :S k :S N,
(4.78)
Using identity (4.72) and estimates (4.64), (4.65), (4.77) and (4.78), we obtain
IIA ~ (tk)UT(k, n)IIE->E :S
IIA ~ (tk)R7,jn( r A(tn-l))IIE->E

IIA~ (tk)uT(k, r)IIE->EII[Rj,l(TA(tr-l)) - Rj,l(TA(tn-d)]A-1(tn-dIlE->E

Therefore,
162
Now using the difference analogy of the integral inequality, we obtain the estimate

Proof. We have that

From this and the estimate for h follows estimate (4.79). The proofs of estimates

Now combining the estimates for L n for n = 1,2,3,4, we obtain estimate (4.83).
In a similar manner one establishes estimate (4.82). Finally let us establish (4.84).
Estimate (4.84) for k-n :s 2 follows from estimates (4.76) and (4.77). Let k-n > 2.
Then using the formula
A(tk+r)ur(k + r,n) - A(tk)uT(k,n) = (wT(k
+ r, [k; n])
-wT(k, [k; n]))A([k; n]r)uT([k; n],n)

and estimates (4.82) and (4.76), we obtain estimate (4.84) for k - n > 2. Lemma
4.2.19 is proved.
Suppose that the assumption (4.62) holds for r = 0 and r = 1. Then

Now using the formulas

i=n
and the last estimates and estimates of Lemma 4.2.18 and Lemma 4.2.19, we can
establish the estimates for uT(k, n).
Lemma 4.2.20. Suppose that the assumption (4.62) holds for r = 0 and r = 1.

From formula (4.68) and the estimates of Lemma 4.2.20 one derives the
following results.
Theorem 4.2.21. The difference problem (4.63) is stable in CT(E).
Theorem 4.2.22. The difference problem (4.63) is stable in C::,Ot(E).
Theorem 4.2.23. The difference problem (4.63) is stable in Lp,T(E), 1 :S p

Theorem 4.2.24. The solutions of the difference problem (4.63) in CT(E) obey the

The proof of Theorem 4.2.24 follows the scheme of the proof of Theorem
4.2.4 and relies on the estimates of Lemma 4.2.20.
Now let us study the well-posedness of the difference problem (4.63) in the

Now let us give the definition of positive operators and introduce the fractional
spaces that will be needed in the sequel.
The operator A is said to be strongly positive if its spectrum a (A) lies in
the interior of the sector of angle , 0 < 2 < 7T, symmetric with respect to the
real axis and if on the edges of this sector, 8 1 () = {peic/> : 0 ::; p ::; oo} and
8 2 () = {pe-ic/>: 0::; p::; oo} and outside of the resolvent (A - A)-l is subject to
the bound
II
(A-A)-lll
E-.E
::; M().
1 + IAI
(4.85)
The infimum of all such angles is called the spectral angle of the strongly positive
operator A and is denoted by (A) = (A, E). Since the spectrum a (A) is a closed
set, it lies inside the sector formed by the rays 8 1 ( (A)) and 8 2 ( (A)) and some
neighborhood of the apex of this sector does not intersect a (A). We shall consider
contours r = r (, r) composed by the rays 8 1 (), 8 2 () and an arc of circle of
radius r centered at the origin; and r will be chosen so that a (A) < lal < 7T/2
and the arc of circle of radius r lies in the resolvent set p (A) of the operator A.
Let f (z) be an analytic function on the set bounded by such a contour r
and suppose that f satisfies estimate
If (z)j
::; M
Izl-c
for some c > O. Then the operator Cauchy-Riesz integral
f (A)
rf (z)(z - A)-l dz
27TZ Jr
(4.86)
converges in the operator norm and defines a bounded linear operator f (A), a function of the strongly positive operator A. If f (z) is continuous in a neighborhood
of the origin, then in (4.86 ) we shall consider that r = 0, i.e., r = 8 1 () U8 2 ().
As in the case of a bounded operator A one shows that f (A) does not depend
on the choice of the contour r in the domain of analyticity of the function f (z)
and that the correspondence between the function f (z) and the operator f (A) is
linear and multiplicative.
The function f (z) = z-a defines a bounded operator A-a whenever a>O.
Here the contour r is chosen with r > O. By the multiplicativity property,
A-(a+,B) = A-a A-,B = A-,B A-a for any powers of the strongly positive operator A and not only for negative integer ones. From this identity it follows (when
a + (3 is an integer) that the equation A-ax = 0 has the unique solution x = O.
171
Hence, the positive powers AQ = (A-Q)-l of the strongly positive operator are
defined. The operators AQ (a> 0) are unbounded if A is unbounded; they have
dense domains D (AQ) and one has the continuous embeddings D (AQ) C D (AI3)
if (3 < a.
The theory of fractional powers of operators can be constructed for a wider
class of positive operators. For such operators the estimate (4.85) is required to
hold for some and not only from the interval [0, 1r /2], but from the larger interval
[0,1r).
Now let us consider the function f (z) = e- tz . For any t > 0 this function
tends to zero faster than any power z-Q as Izl ---+ 00 and its values lie inside any
sector bounded by a contour r. Therefore, formula (4.86) can be used to define
the function exp { -tA} of the strongly positive operator A. By multiplicativity,
the semigroup property holds:
Consider the function W(z) = zQe- tz for some a > 0 and t > O. Since,
obviously, W(z) ---+ 0 faster than any negative power of z as Izl ---+ 00, w (z) defines
the operator function
w (A) =
~
21r2
r zQe-
ir
tz
(z - A)-l dz.
(4.87)
Let us show that the operator exp {- tA} maps E into D (A Q) and AQexp {- tA}
= w(A). Let x be an arbitrary element of E. By the multiplicativity property,
(4.69) implies that
A-Qw (A) x
~
21r2
re-
ir

(z - A)-l xdz

which proves our assertion. Thus, we have the formula

A exp {-tA} =

21r2
r zQe-
ir
tz
(z - A)-l dz.
(4.88)
In the above argument we must assume that the contour r contains an arc
of radius r, since we applied the operator A -Q, which corresponds to the function
z-Q. The final formula (4.88) is valid for any (small) r > O. Since the integrand in
(4.88) is continuous at the point z = 0, letting z ---+ 0 we obtain the formula
172
for some 0 < < 7r /2. From this and estimate (4.85 ) it follows that

In particular, we have the estimate

(4.90)
Let us show that the estimate (4.90) can be sharpened by a factor that decays
exponentially when t ~ +00.
Let A be a strongly positive operator. We claim that for sufficiently small
8> 0 the operator A - 8 is also strongly positive and (A - 8) = (A). Indeed,
let A E r (). Consider the equation AX - (A - 8) X = Y for an arbitrary y E E.
The substitution AX - Ax = z yields the equation z + 8 (A - A)-l z = y. Since
if A E r (), we see that for 8:::; [2M ()r1the equation for z has a unique solution
and Ilzll :::; 211yll Consequently, the equation for x has a unique solution and
Ilxll :::; M () [IAI +

Ilzll :::; 2M () [IAI +
This means that the operator A - (A

[2M ()]-l and

1r
Ilyll
has a bounded inverse for 0

Thus, we have shown that A - 8 is a strongly positive operator. Hence, by (4.90),

we have the estimate
Ilexp {- (A - 8) t}II E --+ E
:::;
2M ().
7r
This obviously yields

(4.91)
1
where we can put 8 = [2M ()r .
Let t > 1. Then, using the semigroup property, we can write
exp {-tA} = exp {- A} exp {- (t - 1) A} .
Next, applying estimates (4.89) with t = 1 and (4.91), we obtain
IIAC> exp {-tA}11
E--+E
:::;
M () r(~) 2M () e- 6 (t-l)
7r (cos)
7r
173
Hence, the following estimate holds for t > 1:
If 0 < t ::S 1, then estimate (4.91) prevails. Combining these two estimates, we
conclude that
IIA exp {-tA}IIE--+ E ::s if () e-OtC Q
(4.92)
Q
for some if () > 0 and b > O.

Further, formula (4.86) allows us to establish that the operator-valued function exp { -tA} is differentiable in the operator norm for t > 0 and
d
dt exp {-tA} = -Aexp {-tA}.
(4.93)
In particular, this implies that exp {-tA} is continuous in the operator norm.
Using the semigroup property we deduce that the derivative of exp { -tA} is also
continuous in the operator norm for t > O. Finally, formula (4.93) shows that
the operator-valued function exp {-tA} has derivatives of arbitrary order in the
operator norm for t > O.
Now let xED (A). Then the (E-valued) function exp {-tA} x has a derivative for t > 0 and, by (4.93),
d
dt exp{-tA}x = -exp{-tA} Ax.
Next, for x as above we can write
Using formula (4.86), we obtain

exp {-tA} x =

Using the Cauchy theorem, we get

Estimate (4.85) shows that in the last equality one can pass to the limit
under the integral sign when t ~ +0. Hence, the limit

Since {) does not depend on

it follows that {) == O. Hence, we proved that

lim exp{-tA}x = x
t-++O
(4.95)
for any x E D(A). Since the norm Ilexp{-tA}II E -+ E is uniformly bounded for
t > 0, the limit relation (4.95) holds for any x E E.
Thus, if we extend the operator-valued function U(t) = exp{-tA}, t > 0,
at t = 0 by U (0) = I, we obtain a strongly continuous semigroup. From estimate
(4.92) (with a = 0) it follows that this semigroup is analytic. Finally, let us show
that its generator is U' (0) = -A. From (4.94) and estimate (4.91) we derive the
identity
U (t) x - x = - i t U (8) Axd8

for xED (A). Since U (t) is strongly continuous to the left at the point t = 0, this
implies that xED (U' (0)) and U' (0) x = -Ax. Hence, U' (0) is an extension of
the operator -A. By estimate (4.91), the operator U' (0) + A and -A + A have
bounded inverses for any A < O. Therefore, U' (0) = -A.
We have shown that the operator-valued function exp {-tA} is an analytic
semigroup with generator - A and with an exponentially decaying norm. Operators
- A that generate such semigroups were called strongly positive operators.
Let A be a strongly positive operator. With the help of A we introduce the
fractional space E~,q (E, A), 0 < a < 1, consisting of all vEE for which the
following norms are finite:
175
Recall that in Section 4.1 of Chapter 4 we introduced the fractional spaces

EQ,q in which the norms are defined with the help of the semigroup exp { -tA}
generated by a strongly positive operator A.

Now, the abstract theorems given above are applied in the investigation of
difference schemes of higher order of accuracy with respect to the set of all variables
for approximate solution of the Cauchy problem (4.52). The discretization of problem (4.52) is carried out in two steps. Let us define the grid space Rh (0 < h ho)
as the set of all points of the Euclidean space R n whose coordinates are given by
:s
sk=O,1,2,... , k=l, ... ,n.

The number h is called the step of the grid space. A function defined on
R h will be called a grid function. To the differential operator A with constant
coefficients of the form

An infinitely differentiable function of the continuous argument y E Rn that

Formulas (4.98) and (4.99) establish a one-to-one correspondence between

rapidly decreasing grid functions of a continuous argument. In particular, if fh (x)
is a rapidly decreasing grid function, then
-h
[1]
(x) = fh (x).
If fh (x) is a rapidly decreasing grid function, then the grid function Ahfh (x)
exists and is given by (4.97) and we have the equality
Ahf (~)
= A (~h, h)
1(~).
The function A (~h, h) is obtained by replacing the operator ~k in the right-hand

side of equality (4.96) with the expression (exp {i~kh} - 1), respectively and is
called the symbol of the difference operator. Since exp {i~kh} are bounded analytic 21rh- 1-periodic functions, the symbol A (~h, h) is a bounded analytic 21rh- 1periodic function. It follows that for large I~I one has the estimate

Let us give a number of corollaries of the abstract theorems given in the

above. To formulate our result we need to introduce the space C~ = C13(R'h),

Theorem 4.2.34. The solutions of the difference schemes (4.102) satisfy the fol-
lowing stability estimates:

The proof of Theorem 4.2.34 is based on the abstract Theorems 4.2.21,4.2.22,

4.2.23 and on the following two theorems.
Theorem 4.2.35. The operator A~x is strongly positive in Ch .
Theorem 4.2.36. For any 0

lowing almost coercive stability estimates:
+ In T ~ h II r,h IILp.r(C,,)], 1 :S p :S 00,
where M does not depend on r,h, ug, p, hand T.

The proof of Theorem 4.2.37 is based on the abstract Theorems 4.2.24 and
4.2.30, the positivity of the operator AI'; in C~ and on the almost coercivity inequality for an elliptic operator A~x in C h and on the estimate

The proof of Theorem 4.2,38 is based on the abstract Theorems 4.2.25, 4.2.33

Note that in a similar way the difference schemes of the high order of accuracy
with respect to one variable for approximate solutions of the mixed problems (4,50)
and (4.51) can be constructed. Abstract theorems given from above permit us to
obtain the stability, the almost stability and the coercive stability estimates for
the solutions of these difference schemes.

Now, we will consider the applications of Taylor's decomposition of function on

two points. From (4.117) it is clear that for the approximate solution of problem
(4.1) it is necessary to find v(i)(tk) for any i,l :S i :S land v(i)(tk_l) for any
i,l :S i :S j. Using the equation
Vf(t) = -A(t)v(t) + f(t),

we obtain

where
Al (t)
= -A(t), Ai(t) = A~~l (t) - A-I (t)A(t)
for any i, 2 :S i :S l,
It (t) = f(t), fi(t) = fi(~l (t) + A i- 1(t)f(t) for any i, 2 :S i :S l.

From this formula for Ai(t) it follows that

The last operator problem will be considered in the space F'T(E). From its unique
solvability for any Uo E E and

an additive and homogeneous operator u'T (r, uo) that is continuous.
The initial-value difference problem (4.122) is said to be stable in F'T(E) if
we have the stability inequality

Let us consider the operator v'T(k, n) defined by

Chapter 5
of Elliptic Type
In the present chapter we consider the well-posedness of an abstract boundaryvalue problem for differential equations of elliptic type
-v"(t)
+ Av(t) =
f(t)
(O:S t :S T), v(O) = vo, v(T) =
VT
in an arbitrary Banach space E with the positive operator A. The high order of
accuracy two-step difference schemes generated by an exact difference scheme or
by the Taylor decomposition on three points for the numerical solutions of this
problem are presented. The well-posedness of these difference schemes in various
Banach spaces are studied. The stability and coercive stability estimates in Holder
norms for solutions of the high order of accuracy difference schemes of the mixed
type boundary-value problems for elliptic equations are obtained.
5.1
A Boundary-Value Problem. Well-posedness
We consider the boundary-value problem for differential equation

VT
(5.1)
in an arbitrary Banach space E with the linear positive operator A.

i. v(t) is twice continuously differentiable on the segment [0, T]. The derivatives
at the endpoints of the segment are understood as the appropriate unilateral
derivatives.
11.
The element v(t) belongs to D(A) for all t E [0, T], and the function Av(t)
is continuous on the segment [0, T].
iii. v(t) satisfies the equation and boundary conditions (5.1).
Chapter 5. Partial Differential Equations of Elliptic Type
198
A solution of problem (5.1) defined in this manner will from now on be

referred to as a solution of problem (5.1) in the space C(E) = C([O, T], E). Here
C(E) stands for the Banach space of all continuous functions <p(t) defined on [0, T]
with values in E equipped with the norm
If v(t) is a solution in C(E) of problem (5.1), then the data of the problem satisfy
the following conditions:
a) f(t) belongs to C(E) ;
b) va and VT belongs to D(A).
We say that problem (5.1) is well posed in C(E), if the following two conditions are satisfied:
f E C(E) and va, VT E D(A) there exists the unique solution

v(t) = v(t;f(t),VO,VT) in C(E) of problem (5.1). This means that an
additive and homogeneous operator v(t; f(t), va, VT) is defined which
acts from C(E) x D(A) x D(A) to C(E) and gives the solution of (5.1)
in C(E).
1. For any
2. v(t; f(t), va, VT), regarded as an operator from C(E) x D(A) x D(A)
to C(E), is continuous. Here C(E) x D(A) x D(A) is understood as
the normed space of the triplets U(t), va, VT), f(t) E C(E) and va,
VT E D(A), equipped with the norm
IIU(t),VO,VT)IIC(E)XD(A)XD(A) =
Ilfllc(E) + IlvoIID(A) + IlvTIID(A)'
By Banach's theorem in C(E) and these properties one has coercive inequality
II v"II C(E) + II Av ll c (E) :::; Mc[llfllc(E) + IIAvollE + IIAvTIIE],
(5.2)
where Mc (1 :::; Mc < +(0) does not depend on va, VT and f(t). Inequality (5.2)
permits us to investigate the spectral properties of operator A generated by the
well-posedness in C(E) of problem (5.1). For any U E D(A) and oX 2 we will put
'ljJ = Au+Au.
Then, evidently, the function eiVAtu(i =
-v"(t)
with f(t)
A) is a solution in C(E)
+ Av(t) =

f(t)
= eiVAt'ljJ. Let w(t) be a smooth function defined on [0, T] by the formula

where a(t) be some smooth function and la( t)1 :S 1. Then, the function v(t) =
w(t)eiVAtu is a solution in C(E) of problem (5.1) with v(o) = v(T) = and

and A ~ fJ + TJ for some TJ > O. Then the inequality
(A + 1) IlullE + IIAullE
::; Mp (TJ)II1/1IIE
holds for some 0 ::; Mp(TJ) < 00. This means that there exists the inverse operator
(M + A) -1, which is defined on the range R( M + A) of operator M + A. We will
prove that R(M + A) = E for sufficiently large A, A> O.
Then it follows that there exists the inverse operator (M + A)-l and the
inequality
holds for all A, A ~ fJ + TJ and 1/1 E E. Now we will prove that R( M + A) = E for all
\ A > O. We consider the boundary-value problem (5.1). Making the substitution
t = OtT for a > 0, we obtain the well-posed in C([O, ~], E) boundary-value problem

VT.
Let V(7) be the solution of this problem for va = VT = 0 and 1(7) = fa, where
fa is an arbitrary element of E. Since fa and A are not dependent in 7, we have
that v( 7) = v(:L - 7) for all 0 ::; 7 ::; :L. Then, in particular, it follows that
v'(O) = -v'(~). Finally, choosing J>.~ = (2m + 1)1T for some m = 1,2, ... and
integrating by parts, we obtain
T

[-v'(~ )ei.fi~ - v'(O)] + iJ>.[v(~ )ei.fi~ - v(O)]

for all \ A > 0 and fa E E. This means that R(M + A) = E for all J>.~ =
(2m + 1)1T and m = 1,2, .... From that it follows that there exists the bounded
inverse (M + A)-l for all A ~ fJ + TJ.
An operator A acting in a Banach space E and having a dense domain D(A)
is called positive if the operator M + A has a bounded-in-E inverse for all \ A ~ 0,
and the estimate
(5.3)
201
is satisfied for some 1 :S M p < +00. Note that we are not able to obtain the
estimate (5.3) for all A, A ~ 0.
Is the positivity of operator A a sufficient condition for the well-posedness
of (5.1) in C(E)? As it turns out, problem (5.1) is not well posed in C(E) for all
such operators. Let us give an example.
Let A be the operator acting in E = C[O, 1] defined by the formula Av(x) =
-v"(x) + v(x), with the domain
D(A)
= {v (x) : v"(x) E C[O, 1], v(O) = v(l) = O}.
Evidently, the operator AI + A has a bounded inverse for any A ~ 0, and formula
[(AI + A)-lV](X)
1 (1 _e- 2v'1+>.)-1 [e-(l-X)v'f0 _ e-(l+x)v'l+>']

2~
j[e-1x-T1v'f0 _ e- 1X +T1 v'f0jv(r)dr
a
holds. From this formula it follows that A is a positive operator in the Banach
space E = C[O, 1]. Now let us show that in this case the boundary-value problem
(5.1) is not well posed in C(E) = C([O, 1], C[O, 1]). Then (5.1) turns into the
boundary-value problem
~:~ - ~:~ + u =
f(t, x),
0< t < 1,
< x < 1,
u(O,x)=u(l,x) =0, O:Sx:Sl,

u(t,O) = u(t, 1) = 0, O:S t:S 1.
However, it is well known that problem (5.4) is not well posed in
C(E) = C([O, 1], C[O, 1]).

The corresponding counterexample can be given by
2
2
u(t,x) = [x (1- x)2 - t (1-
tfJin X2( I-x )2 +t 2( I-t )2'
It means that u(t, x), Ut(t, x), ux(t, x) E C([O, 1], C[O, 1]) and
1
Utt(t,x)=-2In x 2( I-x )2 +t 2( I-t )2+(t,X),

1
uxx (t,x)=2In x 2( I-x )2 +t 2( I-t )2 + <p(t, x)
(5.4)
202
for some continuous functions 7jJ(t, x) and <p(t, x). Therefore, evidently, the boundary-value problem (5.4) is ill posed in C([O, 1]' C[O, 1]). It means that coercive
inequality (5.2) is not true for any solution in C(E) of the boundary-value problem
(5.1).
Note that from the estimate (5.3), evidently, it follows that the operator
>..I + A has bounded inverse for all complex numbers
.\ = C!
+ iT E Gt =
Gt(Mp ) (0 < < 1),
such that
or
and the estimate
II (>..I + A)-lIIE->E S M 1-1(1 + 1.\1)-1

holds for some M 1 E [1, +00) but does not depend on E (0,1). It means that
the spectrum C!(A) of A is a subset of set G-; =
and inside of G-; and on its
boundary 8G-; the resolvent (>..I - A)-l is subject to the bound
-G-:
(5.5)
Let 7jJ(z) be an analytic function on a neighborhood of C!(A), and suppose that 7jJ
satisfies the estimate
(1 + Izl)Q 17jJ(z) 1S M 2
for some
<
a < +00, 1 S M 2 < +00. Then the Cauchy-Riesz integral operator
7jJ(A) =
~
2m
7jJ(z)(zI - A)-ldz
(5.6)
aa;
converges in the operator norm and defines a bounded linear operator 7jJ(A), a
function of A. In particular, the function 7jJ(A) = z-Q defines a bounded operator
A-Q whenever a > 0. The positive powers AQ = (A-Q)-l(a > 0) of the operator
A are defined. The operators AQ (a > 0) are unbounded, and their domains
D(AU) are dense in E if A is unbounded. One has the continuous embeddings
D(AQ) C D(A.B) if (3 < a. The following moment inequality holds:
IIAQullE S M(a, (3)
IIA.Bull~.B lIullk-Q/.B (0 S a S (3 < +oo,u E D(A.B))
(5.7)
for some M(a,(3) E [1,+00) that does not depend on u E D(A.B). The operator
A1/2 has better spectral properties than the positive operator A. Indeed, using
the identity
203
inequality (5.7) for a = ~, (3 = 1 and estimate (5.5) we obtain
~ MM1c- 1(1
+ 1>'1)-1
+M(a,(3)(1 + M1C 1 1>'1 (1 + 1>'1)-1)(M1c- 1(1 + 1>'1)-1)~.

Thus, the operator J>...I - A ~ has a bounded inverse for>. E G; , and the estimate
holds for some M 3 E [1, +(0) and does not depend on E and >.. This means that
B = A~ is a strongly positive operator in a Banach space E (see Chapter 4).
Therefore, the operator -B is a generator of an analytic semigroup exp {-tB}
(t 2 0) with exponentially decreasing norm, when t ~ +00, i.e., the estimates
Ilexp( -tB)IIE---. E , litE exp( -tB)II E---. E ~ M(B)e-c>(B)t(t > 0)
(5.8)
hold for some M(B) E [1, +(0), a(B) E (0, +(0). From that it follows that the
operator I - e- 2TB has a bounded inverse and the following estimate holds:
(5.9)
First of all let us prove a lemma that will be needed in the sequel.
< t < t + T < T and 0
lone has the inequality
TC>
Ilexp(-tB) -exp{-(t+T)B}II E---. E ~ M (t+T)C>'

where M does not depend on a, t, and
T.
Proof. Using the formula
J
t+T
exp( -tB) - exp {-(t
+ T)B}
B exp( -sB)ds
and estimate (5.8), we obtain that

lIexp( -tB) - exp {-(t
+ T)B}II E---. E ~ M rt .
T
The inequality
Ilexp(-tB) -exp{-(t+T)B}II E---. E ~ M 1
(5.10)
204
follows from (5.8) and the triangle inequality. Therefore
II exp( -tB) -
exp {-(t
+ 7)B}II E-. E :S M 1min{l, ~}.

Ilexp( -tB) - exp {-(t
27
+ 7)B}II E -. E :S M 1t + 7'
Interpolating the last inequality and

Ilexp(-tB) -exp{-(t+7)B}II E -. E :S M 1
we obtain (5.10). Lemma 5.1.1 is proved.
Now, we consider the boundary-value problem (5.1). It can be obviously
rewritten as the equivalent boundary-value problem for the system of first-order
linear differential equations
v' (:) + BV(I) ~ z(I)(O ,; 1,; T), viOl ~ Vo, v(T) ~ Vr,
{ -z (t) + Bz(t) =

e-tBvo + f~ e-Ct-s)Bz(s)ds,
e-CT-t)Bz(T) + ft e-(s-t)B j(s)ds.
From these formulas and the condition v(T) = VT it follows that
v(T) = e-TBvo
+ iT e- 2(T-s)Bdsz(T)
+ iT iT e-(T+y-2s)B j(y)dyds.
Since faT e- 2(T-s)Bds = (2B)-1(I - e- 2TB ), we have that
z(T) = (I - e- 2TB )-12B[VT - e-TBvo

-iT iT e-(T+y-2s)B j(y)dyds]
= (I - e- 2TB )-12B[VT - e-TBvo
-(2B)-1 iT (e-(T-y)B - e-(T+y)B)j(y)dy].
So,
205
z(t) = e-(T-t)B(I - e- 2TB )-12B[Vy - e-TBvo

It is easy to show that vet) defined on [0, T] by formula (5.11) is a unique solution
in G(E) of problem (5.1) if, for example, vo, VT E D(A 2 ) and Af(t) E G(E) or
f'(t) E G(E). Sufficient conditions for the well-posedness of the boundary-value
problem (5.1) can be established if one considers this problem in certain spaces
F(E) of smooth E-valued functions on [0, T].
A function vet) is said to be a solution of problem (5.1) in F(E) if it is a
solution of this problem in G(E) and the functions v"(t) and Av(t) belong to
F(E).
As in the case of the space G(E), we say that problem (5.1) is well posed in
F(E), if the following two conditions are satisfied:
1. For any f E F(E) and vo, VT E D(A) there exists a unique solution vet) =
vet; f(t), Vo, VT) in F(E) of problem (5.1). This means that an additive and
homogeneous operator vet; f(t), vo, Vy) is defined which acts from F(E) x
D(A) x D(A) to F(E) and gives the solution of (5.1) in F(E).
2. vet; f(t), vo, VT), regarded as an operator from F(E) x D(A) x D(A) to F(E),
is continuous. Here F(E) x D(A) x D(A) is understood as the normed space
of the triplets (J(t), Vo, VT), f(t) E F(E) and vo, VT E D(A), equipped with
the norm
11(J(t),VO,VT)IIF(E)XD(A)XD(A) = IlfIIF(E) + IlvoIID(A) + IlvTIID(A).

First, we set F(E) equal to G~Ta(E) = G~t([O,T],E),O < a < 1, the Banach
space obtained by completion of the set of smooth E-valued functions Y'(t) on
[0, T] in the norm

As in the case of the space G(E), from the well-posedness of the boundary-value
problem (5.1) one derives the coercivity inequality
Ilv"lIe~+Q(E)

where Me (a)(l :S Mc(a) < +00) does not depend on Vo, Vy and f(t).
Theorem 5.1.2. Suppose Vo, VT E D(A), f(t) E G~t(E)(O < a < 1). Then the
boundary-value problem (5.1) is well posed in the Holder space G~Ta(E), if A is

the positive operator in the Banach space E. For the solution v(t) in C~TO!(E) of

holds, where M does not depend on a, Vo, VT and f(t).

Proof. If v(t) is a solution in C~t(E) of problem (5.1), then it is a solution in
C(E) of this problem. Hence, by (5.11), we have the representation
v(t) = (I - e-2TB)-1{(e-tB - e- C2T - t )B)vo
+ (e-CT-t)B - e-CTH)B)VT

+(2B)-1 iT (e-lt-sIB - e-Ct+s)B)f(s)ds.
To prove the theorem we must show that the functions v"(t) and Av(t) belong to
C~t(E), and finally obtain estimates for the norms of these functions. Here we
address only the last task. Using formula (5.11), we obtain
Av(t) = (I - e-2TB)-1{(e-tB - e-C2T-t)B)Avo

Let us estimate Jk(t) for any k = 1,2,3,4,5 separately. We start with J1 (t). Using

Theorem 5.1.3. Suppose Vo, VT E D(A), f(t) E C~TCt(E)(O < a < 1). Then the
boundary-value problem (5.1) is well posed in Holder space C~t(E), if A is the

The estimate for Av(t) in the norm of CO:(E) follows from the triangle inequality.
Second, one can enrich the family of spaces of smooth functions in which the
boundary-value problem (5.1) is well posed by introducing the spaces CgP(E),
(0 :s 'Y :s f3,0 < f3 < 1), obtained by completion of the set of all smooth E-valued

number offunction spaces in which problem (5.1) is well posed. In particular, it is
important that problem (5.1) is well posed in the Holder space without a weight
b = 0). Recall that the positivity of A is a necessary condition for well-posedness
of problem (5.1) in C(E). However, problem (5.1) is not well posed in C(E) for
all positive operators. It turns out that a Banach space E can be restricted to a
Banach space E' in such a manner that the restricted problem (5.1) in E' will be
well posed in C(E'). The role of E' will be played here by the fractional spaces
Eo: = Eo:(E, B)(O < a < 1).
Theorem 5.1.6. Let A be the positive operator in a Banach space E and f(t) E
C(Eo:), (0 < a < 1). Then for the solution v(t) in C(Eo:) of the boundary-value

Let us estimate h(t) for any k = 1,2,3, ... ,6 separately. We start with h (t).

Combining the estimates for h, lz, h, [4, h, h we obtain estimate (5.24). Theorem 5.1.4 is proved.
Third, let us study now the boundary-value problem (5.1) in the spaces
cgp(Ea -f3), (0:::; "y::; (3:::; a,O < a < 1). To these there correspond the spaces of
223

is finite. Let us give, without proof, the following results.

Theorem 5.1.7. Let A be the positive operator in a Banach space E, v~ E E~~fJ'
v!j. E E~~f3 and f(t) E Cgp(Eo-fJ) (0 ::; 'Y ::; f3 ::; a, 0 < a < 1). Then for
the solution v(t) in Cgp(Eo-f3) of the boundary-value problem (5.1) the coercive
inequality
II v" IlcgT"Y(Ea_lJ) + II Av IlcgT"Y(Ea_lJ) + II v" Ilc(E~~IJ)
::; M[lv~I~~fJ

holds, where M does not depend on a, f3, 'Y,
v~,
v!j. and f (t).
Theorem 5.1.8. Let A be the positive operator in a Banach space E and v~ E

E o -" v!j. E E o - , and f(t) E Cgy'(Eo-,) (0::; 'Y ::; f3 ::; a, 0 < a < 1). Then for
the solution v(t) in Cgp(Eo-fJ) of the boundary-value problem (5.1) the coercive
inequality
II v" II cgT"Y(Ea_lJ) + II Av II cgP(Ea_lJ) + II v" IIc(E a-"y)

holds, where M does not depend on a, f3, 'Y,
v~,
v!j. and f (t).
Note that the spaces of smooth functions Cgp(Eo- f3 ), in which coercive

solvability has been established, depend on the parameters a, f3 and 'Y. However,
the constants in the coercive inequalities depend only on a. Hence, we can choose
the parameters f3 and 'Y freely, which increases the number of function spaces
in which problem (5.1) is well posed. In particular, Theorem 5.1.6 implies the
well-posedness Theorem 5.1.4 in C(Eo ) established in the above.
Fourth, let us study now the boundary-value problem (5.1) in the spaces
Lp(E) = Lp([O, T], E) (1 ::; p < 00) of all strongly measurable E-valued functions
v(t) on [0, T] for which the norm
T

IILp(E)= (/ II v(t) Iii dt)~

is finite.
Recall that a function v(t) is said to be absolutely continuous if it has a
derivative v'(t) for almost every t such that v'(t) E LI(E), and if the Newton-
224
Leibniz formula
J
t
v(t) - V(T) =
v'(s)ds
holds for all t, T E [0, T]. Here the integral is understood in the sense of Bochner.
A function v(t) is said to be a solution of problem (5.1) in Lp(E) if it is
absolutely continuous, the functions v"(t) and Av(t) belong to Lp(E), equation
(5.1) is satisfied for almost every t, and v(o) = va, v(T) = VT. From this definition
it follows that a necessary condition for the solvability of problem (5.1) in Lp(E)
is that f(t) E Lp(E). It will be shown that in certain cases this condition is also
sufficient for the solvability of problem (5.1). As concerns the boundary elements,
in contrast to the situation considered earlier, from the solvability of problem (5.1)
in Lp(E) it follows only that vo, VT E E. In the case of an unbounded operator A
this does not allow us to prove the solvability of problem (5.1).
From the unique solvability of (5.1) it follows that the operator v(t; f(t), VA,
VT) is bounded in Lp(E) and one has coercive inequality
II v"IIL p(E)
+ IIAv(t)IILp(E)
~ Me[llfIILp(E)
+ IIAvollE + IIAvTllEl
where Me (1 ~ Me < +(0) does not depend on VO,VT and f(t). From that we
can obtain the positivity of A under the stronger assumption that the operator
A-I is compact in E. Let us give, without proof, the following results.
Theorem 5.1.9. Let A be the positive operator in a Banach space E. Suppose
problem (5.1) is well posed in Lpo(E) for some Po, 1 < Po < 00. Then it is well
posed in Lp(E) for any p, 1 < P < 00 and the coercivity inequality holds:

IlfIILp(E) + M(llvoIIE1_1/P,P + IIvrIIE1_1/p,p),
where M(po) and M does not depend on p, Vo, VT and f(t). Here the Banach space

Finally, we consider the applications of these results to the elliptic equations. First, we consider the boundary-value problems for two-dimensional elliptic

where a(x), <p(x), ~(x) and f(y,x) are given sufficiently smooth functions and
a(x) > 0, <5 > 0 is a sufficiently large number.
We introduce the Banach spaces C,B[O,l] (0 < j3 < 1) of all continuous
functions <p(x) satisfying a Holder condition for which the following norms are
finite:
II <p IlciJ[o,l]=1I <p Ilc[o,l] +

where C[O, 1] is the space of all continuous functions <p(x) defined on [0, 1] with
the usual norm
II <p Ilc[o,l]= orp~ll<p(x)l.
AXv = -a(x)v"(x) + 6v(x)

defines a positive operator AX acting in C,B[O, 1] with domain C,B+2[0, 1] and satisfying the conditions v(O) = v(l), vx(O) = v x (1).
Therefore, we can replace boundary-value problem (5.25) by the abstract
boundary-value problem (5.1). Using the results of Theorems 5.1.2,5.1.5 and 5.1.8,
we can obtain that

(0 < Xk < 1, 1 ~ k ~ n) with boundary S, 0 = nUs. In [0, T] x n
we consider the mixed boundary-value problem for the multidimensional elliptic

We introduce the Banach spaces
l (0) ((3 = ((31, ... , (3n), < Xk < 1,
k = 1, ... , n) of all continuous functions satisfying a Holder condition with the
indicator (3 = ((31, ... ,(3n),(3k E (0,1), 1 ~ k ~ n and with weight xfk(l - Xk h k )!3k, ~ Xk < Xk + h k ~ 1, 1 ~ k ~ n which is equipped with the norm

Therefore, we can replace boundary-value problems (5.26) by the abstract

Difference Schemes Generated by an Exact Difference Scheme
We consider the boundary-value problem (5.1). For the construction of the twostep difference schemes of an arbitrary high order of accuracy for the approximate
solutions of the boundary-value problem (5.1) we consider the uniform grid space
[0, T]T
= {tk = kT, k = 0,1, ... , N, N7 = T}.
By Theorem 3.1.2 we have the following two-step difference scheme for the solution
of the boundary-value problem (5.1):
+( -21 + (2B7)-1{I - exp( -27B)} exp( -27B)

+(2B7)-1 {I - exp( -27 B)} )V(tk)

It can obviously be rewritten as the equivalent boundary-value problem for the

second-order difference equations

The latter will be referred to as the exact two-step difference scheme for
the boundary-value problem (5.1). Let us investigate the well-posedness of the
exact two-step difference scheme (5.29). This problem is uniquely solvable, and
the following formula holds:
Uk = (I - e-2tNB)-I{(e-tkB - e-(2t N-t k)B)uo

From this formula and using the formula for ZN, we can obtain formula (5.30).
Let us denote by Fr(E) = F([O, T].,., E) the space of grid functions <pr =
{ <pd f~/ for fixed T = ft Thus, F T (E) is the vector space whose elements are
ordered (N - 1)-tuples of elements of E. The space Fr(E) can be equipped with
various norms and thus become a normed space. Thus, for instance, the vector
space FT(E) generates the normed space Cr(E) = C([O, T].,., E) with the norm
the normed space Ce(E) = CI3([O, T]r, E) 0< j3 < 1, with the norm

Let us consider the difference problem (5.29). We will reduce it to an operator

problem in the space FT (E). First we shall define an operator D; acting from the
space E x FT(E) x E of vectors wT = {wdf=o into the space FT(E) of vectors
vT = {vd~=-/ according to the rule
vT = D;UT,Vk =
~(Wk+l
r
2Wk
+ wk-d,k = 1, ... ,N-1.
Second we shall define an operator AT acting from the space E x FT(E) x E of

vectors wT = {wdf=o into the space FT(E) of vectors vT = {vd~~/ according to
the rule
v T = ATuT,Vk = ~[(I - exp( -rB))(wk_1 + wk+d
r
+(exp( -2rB) - I)wk], k = 1, ... , N - 1.

Next, let us introduce the continuation operator IT(uo, UN), which acts from
Ex FT(E) x E to FT(E) according to the rule
IT(uo, UN HUI, ... , uN-d
(uo, UI,, UN-I, UN)'
Then, clearly, the difference problem (5.29) is equivalent to the operator problem
-D;IT(UO,UN)U T + ATIT(UO,UN)UT =
Here
is defined by the formula
= (iI,, iN-d
solvability for any un, UN E E and
E FT(E) it follows that its solution u T
defines a continuous additive and homogeneous operator uT(fT, UN, UN)'
The boundary-value problem (5.29) is said to be stable in FT(E) if we have
the inequality
r, un, UN, but also of r.
234

Theorem 5.2.1. Let A be the positive operator in a Banach space E. Then difference
problem (S.29) is stable in CT(E).

The proof of this theorem is based on formula (S.11) and the estimate
Ilexp(-hB)/IE-oE ~ M e- 6kT ,J > 0,
(S.31)
for all k, k ~ 1 and all r > O,where M does not depend on k and r. Estimate
(S.31) follows from (S.8) for t = tk = hand a(B) = J.
problem (S.29) is stable in C,:,Cl(E), 0 < a < 1.
The proof of this theorem is based on formula (S.11), estimate (S.31) and
Ilexp( -hB) - exp {-(k
rCl
+ r)rB} IIE-o E ~ M (k + r)Cl'
(5.32)
for all k, r, 1 ~ k < k + r ~ N - 1 and all r > 0, where M does not depend on k,
rand r. Estimate (S.32) follows from (5.10).
problem (S.29) is stable in Lp,T(E), 1 ~ p < 00.
The proof of this theorem is based on formula (S.11) and estimate (S.31).
The boundary-value difference problem (5.29) is said to be well posed (coercively stable) in FT(E) if we have the coercive inequality
II
+
II
{r- 2 (uk+l - 2Uk + uk_d}~-l IIFT(E)
{r- 2 [(I - exp( -rB))(uk-l + uk+d + (exp( -2rB) - I)uk]}~-l IIFT(E)
r IIFT(E) + II Auoil E + IIAuNII E],

where M is independent not only of r, Uo, UN, but also of r. Since the boundary~
M[II
value differential problem (S.l) in C(E) is not well posed for the general positive
operator A and space E, then the well-posedness of the difference boundary-value
in CT(E) norm does not take place uniformly with respect to r > O. This means
that the coercive norm

II

{r- 2 [(1 - exp( -rB))(uk-l + Uk+l) + (exp( -2rB) - I)uk]}~-l
II cT (E)
tends to 00 as r ~ +0 . The investigation of the difference problem (5.29) permits

us to establish the order of growth of this norm to 00. First, let us prove a lemma
that will be needed in the sequel.
235
Lemma 5.2.4. Suppose A is the positive operator in a Banach space E. Then the
following estimate holds:
N-l
2: 11(1 - e-TB)e-tj-lBIIE-+E :=::; M min (In(l/T), 1 + lIn /lBIII),
(5.33)
j=l
T.
Proof. Using estimate (5.10), we obtain
2: II(I - e-TB)e-tj-lBIIE-+E :=::; M 2: ~J :=::; M Jds = M
N-l
N-l

(5.34)
Further, using estimate (5.10), we obtain
If IIBIIE-+E

2: 11(1 - e-TB)e-tj-lBIIE---->E :=::; M 2: ~

IIBIIE-+E :=::; N,
then
:=::; M(l+

236
Thus, in all three cases we have the estimate
N-l
11(1 - e-rB)e-tj-1BIIE--.E
:s M(l + lIn II B IIE--.EI)
(5.35)
j=l
Finally, estimate (5.33) follows from (5.34) and (5.35). Lemma 5.2.4 is proved.
Theorem 5.2.5. Let A be the positive operator in a Banach space E and Uo E D(A),
UN E D(A). Suppose the operator 1 +exp(-rB) has an inverse (1 +exp(-rB))-l
and
11(1 + exp( -rB))-lIIE--.E :s M,

where M does not depend on r. Then the solutions of the difference problem (5.29)

From the last estimate and estimate (5.33) follows estimate (5.39). Theorem 5.2.5
is proved.
Note that estimate (5.37) is established for arbitrary positive operator A. In
contrast, estimate (5.38) is established under the assumption (5.36). When is the
last condition satisfied? We have an answer in the case where E = H is a Hilbert
space. Furthermore, the method of proof of Theorem 5.2.5 enables us to establish
the following fact.
Theorem 5.2.6. Let A be the positive operator in a Banach space E and uo, UN E
D(A). Suppose the operator I +exp(-TB) has an inverse (1 +exp(-TB))-l and
E D((1 + exp( -TB)) -1). Then the solutions of the difference problem (5.29) in
Cr(E) obey the almost coercive inequality

Furthermore, the method of proof of Theorem 5.2.8 enables us to establish

Recall that the difference problem (5.29) is not well posed in GT(E) for all

well posed in GT(E'). The role of E'will be played here by the fractional spaces

Now, we will consider the applications of the exact difference scheme (5.29).
From (5.29) it is clear that for the approximate solutions of the problem (5.1) it

Further, using the last formulas and Pade fractions for the function e- z , we

271
Now, using the last formula and Pade fractions for the function e- z , we
obtain the difference schemes of (j + l)-order of accuracy
(5.57)
= fk''I ,1 :S k :S N -
1, Uo = Vo, UN = VT
for the approximate solutions of the boundary-value problem (5.1).

Note that the difference schemes (5.57) for j = land j = 1 - 1 include
difference schemes of arbitrary high order of approximation. Moreover, the corresponding functions Rj,l+ 1 (z) tend to 0 as z -+ 00 for j = 1- 1, l. Such difference
schemes are simplest, in the sense that the degrees of the denominators of the
corresponding Pade approximants of the function exp{ - z} are minimal for a fixed
order of approximation of the difference schemes.
It is clear that this problem is uniquely solvable, and the following formula
holds:
Uk = (I - R;,f+1 (1'B))-1 {(R7,l+1 (1'B) - RJ.f+~k(1'B))uo

Let us reduce such difference schemes to an operator problem in the space FT(E).
In addition to the operator D;, acting from the space E x FT(E) x E of vectors
wT = {wdi:'=o into the space Fr(E) of vectors v T = {Vk}~=-/ by the rule

From formula (5.58) one derives the following result.

The proof of this theorem is based on formula (5.58) and the estimates

Theorem 5.2.36. Let A be the positive operator in a Banach space E. Then the
difference problem (5.57) is stable in c;;,a(E), 0 < a < 1.
The proof of this theorem is based on formula (5.58), estimates (5.59), (5.60)

Note that in a similar manner we can construct the difference schemes of a
high order of accuracy with respect to one variable for approximate solutions of
the boundary-value problems (5.25) and (5.26). Abstract theorems given above
permit us to obtain the stability, the almost stability and the coercive stability
estimates for the solutions of these difference schemes.

We consider again the boundary-value problem (5.1). Let the function v(t)(O :S t :S
T) have a (2l + 2j + 2)-th continuous derivative and tk-1, tk, tk+1 E [0, T]r. Then
by Theorem 3.2.1 we have the following Taylor decomposition on three points:
V(tk+1) - 2V(tk)

Thus, we have constructed the difference schemes of (2l + 2j)-order of accuracy for the approximate solution of the boundary-value problem (5.1).

it follows that the investigation of the stability and well-posedness of difference
schemes (5.78) relies in an essential manner on a number of properties of the powers
of the operator (I + 7B)-1. We were not able to obtain estimates for powers of
the operator (1 + 7Bt 1 in the general cases of operator A and numbers j and i.
We begin by deriving some estimates for powers of the operator (1 + 7 B) -1 in the
cases j = 0 and alli, i 2 1 and a strongly positive operator A in a Banach space
E with spectral angle (A, E) < fl.
296
Lemma 5.3.1. Let A be a strongly positive operator in a Banach space E with
spectral angle (A, E) < fz. Then -AI is a generator of the analytic semigroup
exp {-tAt} (t ~ 0) with exponentially decreasing norm, when t - 4 +00, i.e., we
have the estimates
Ilexp{ -tAI}IIE---+E :S MI e- tol (t
> 0),
(5.80)
IltAlexp{-tAt}IIE---+E:S MI e-tol(t > 0)
(5.81)
for some 1 :S MI < +00,0 < 01 < +00. Here MI does not depend on
T.
Proof. Let us show by induction that for any integer m, 2 :S m :S l, Am is a strongly

positive operator in a Banach space E. Let m = 2 and A = IAlei<p, 7r > lipl ~ ~.
We consider the identity
2
AI - A = (A2J - A)(A2J + A).

SinceA~ = IAI~ei-r,~ > I~I ~~, by the definition ofastrongly positive operator
in a Banach space E we have that the operator A~ I - A has a bounded inverse,
and the estimate
holds for some MA E [1, +00) that does not depend on A. It is readily proved that

II(A ~ I
+ A)-lIIE-+E
:S M(l

holds for some M E [1, +00) that does not depend on A. Therefore, the operator
AI - A 2 has a bounded inverse, and the estimate
holds for some M A 2 E [1, +00) and for all A, A = IAlei<p, 7r > lipl ~ ~. This means
that A 2 is a strongly positive operator in a Banach space E. Suppose that for any
integer k, 2 :S k :S m - 1, Ak is a strongly positive operator in a Banach space E.
Then, we will prove that Am is a strongly positive operator in a Banach space E.
We consider the identity
297
We have that for any integer k, 1 :S k :S m, Am-k is a strongly positive operator

in a Banach space E. Therefore, the operator AI - Am-k has a bounded inverse,
and the estimate

It is readily
proved that the operator A k;;;l Am-k has a bounded inverse, and the estimate
holdsforsomeMA=-k E [1,+00), for all z,z = Izl ei 1/J,7r > 111'12

Indeed,

i.e., we have the estimates

Since the operators A k;;;l Am-k commute, we have that a generator of the analytic semigroup exp

{-t k=lf, Ak;;;l Am-k} (t 2 0) with ex-
ponentially decreasing norm, when t ~ +00. Therefore,

means that Am is a strongly positive operator in a Banach space E. Finally, we
will prove that - Al is a generator of the analytic semigroup exp {- tAL} (t ~ 0)

Estimate (5.80) is established. In a similar manner one can obtain estimate (5.81).
Lemma 5.3.1 is established.
Lemma 5.3.2. Let - A be a generator of the analytic semigroup exp { -tA} (t ~ 0)

Therefore,

So, from estimate (5.88) it follows that B I (AI) is a positive operator in E. Now,
we will estimate (AI + Bd- k for k 2 2. Clearly, the function M k ( \ p) for k 2 2
changes sign on the segment 0 :S p :S 4. Therefore, the last method of estimate
of (AI + BI(Ad)-1 does not work in the general cases k 2 2. Now, we will use
another formula for (AI + BI)-k. Since -A is a generator of the strongly continuous
semigroup exp {-tA} (t 2 0) with exponentially decreasing norm, when t ---+ +00,
Ilexp{ -tA}II E - + E :S M

formula holds:
(AI + Ad- l =

Note if Al is a complex number with Re Al > 0, then (AI + B1)-k is the Laplace
transform of the function L k().., t). Since (AI + B1)-k-l = (AI + Bt}-k(AI +

that L k ().., t) is a convolution of the k functions L 1 (A, t) defined by the recurrence

Formula (5.90) and inequality (5.93) permit us to apply the same approach of

Now, the abstract theorems given above are applied in the investigation of
difference schemes of higher order of accuracy with respect to the set of all variables
for approximate solution of the boundary-value problem (5.78). The discretization
of problem (5.27) is carried out in two steps. In the first step let us give the
difference operator A h by the formula

The proof of Theorem 5.3.16 is based on the abstract Theorem 5.3.6, the
positivity of the operator A h in C~ and on the coercivity inequality for an elliptic
operator Ah in C~. Note that in a similar manner we can construct the difference
schemes of a high order of accuracy generated by Taylor's decomposition of the
function on three points with respect to one variable for approximate solutions
of the boundary-value problems (5.25) and (5.26). Abstract theorems given above
permit us to obtain the stability, the almost stability and the coercive stability
estimates for the solutions of these difference schemes.

equations of the hyperbolic type

in an arbitrary Hilbert space H with the self-adjoint positive definite operator

A. The high order of accuracy two-step difference schemes generated by an exact
difference scheme or by Taylor's decomposition on three points for the numerical
solutions of this problem are presented. Stability estimates for the solutions of
these difference schemes are established. In applications, the stability estimates
for solutions of a high order of accuracy difference schemes of the mixed type
boundary-value problems for hyperbolic equations are obtained.

A function v( t) is called a solution of problem (6.1) if the following conditions
are satisfied:
1. v(t) is twice continuously differentiable on the segment [0, T]. The derivatives

not only continuous, but also continuously differentiable on [0, Tj, Vo E D(A)

(6.4)
Now, we consider the application of this abstract Theorem 6.1.1. First, we

consider the mixed problem for hyperbolic equations
Utt(t' x) - (a(x)uxh + u(t, x) = f(t, x), :s t :s T,

u(O,x) = <p(x),Ut(O,x) = '(x), :S x:s L,
{
u(t,O) = u(t,L),ux(t,O) = ux(t,L),O:S t:S T.
:s x :s L,
(6.5)
Problem (6.5) has a unique smooth solution u(t,x) for smooth a(x) > (x E
[O,L]), <p(x), '(x) (x E [O,L]) and f(t,x) (t E [O,T], x E [O,L]) functions. This
allows us to reduce the mixed problem (6.5) to the initial-value problem (6.1) in a
Hilbert space H = L 2 [0, L] with a self-adjoint positive definite operator A defined
by (6.5). Let us give a number of corollaries of the abstract Theorem 6.1.1.

317
The proof of this theorem is based on the abstract Theorem 6.1.1 and the
symmetry properties of the space operator generated by problem (6.5).
Second, let n c lRn be a bounded open domain with smooth boundary S,
= nUS. In [0, T] x n we consider the mixed boundary-value problem for
hyperbolic equations

where ar(x), (x EO), <p(x), '(x) (x E 0) and f(t, x) (t E [0, T], x E 0) are given
smooth functions and ar(x) > 0. We introduce the Hilbert space 2(0), the space
of all integrable functions defined on 0, equipped with the norm
Problem (6.6) has a unique smooth solution u(t, x) for smooth ar(x) > and
f(t,x) functions. This allows us to reduce the mixed problem (6.6) to the initialvalue problem (6.1) in Hilbert space H = 2(0) with a self-adjoint positive definite
operator A defined by (6.6). Let us give a number of corollaries of the abstract
Theorem 6.1.1.

The proof of this theorem is based on the abstract Theorem 6.1.1 and the
symmetry properties of the space operator generated by problem (6.6).
6.2
Difference Schemes Generated by an Exact Difference Scheme
We consider the initial-value problem (6.1). On the segment [0, T] we consider a

uniform grid
[O,T]T = {tk = kT,k = 0, 1, ... ,N,NT = T}
318
with step r. By Theorem 3.1.1 we have the following two-step difference scheme

The latter will be referred to as the exact two-step difference scheme for the
initial-value problem (6.1).
Suppose the operators (1 - e2TiB ) and (1 + eTiB ) have the bounded inverses
(I - e2TiB )-1 and (I + eTiB )-l. Then this problem is uniquely solvable and the
following formula holds:
Uk = [e- kTiB - (1 - e2TiB)-1(e-kTiB - ekTiB)]uo

Let us investigate the stability of the exact two-step difference scheme (6.7).

Theorem 6.2.1. Suppose the operators (I - e2TiB ) and (I + eTiB) have the bounded
inverses (I - e2TiB )-1 and (I + eTiB)-l. Suppose further that Uo E D(B 2(I +
eTiB)-l), Ul - Uo E D(B 2(I - e2TiB )-1) and ik E D(B(I - e2TiB )-1), 1 ~ k ~
N - 1. Then for the solution of the exact two-step difference scheme (6.7) the
following stability inequalities hold:

Proof. Using formula (6.8) and the estimates

for k 2 2. It obviously holds also for k = 0,1. The estimate (6.9) is established.
Applying r- 1(I - e- TiB ) to formula (6.8) and using estimates (6.12) and

Now, we will consider the applications of the exact difference scheme (6.7).

Note that the difference schemes (6.27) for j = l ,j = I - I and j = l + 1
include difference schemes of arbitrary high order of approximation. Moreover,
the corresponding functions IRj,I+l(z)1 tend to 0 as z -+ 00 for j = l - 1,1 and
IRj,l+l (z)1 = 1 for j = l + 1. Such difference schemes are simplest, in the sense that
the degrees of the denominators of the corresponding Pade approximants of the
function exp{ - z} are minimal for a fixed order of approximation of the difference
schemes.
Suppose the operators (1 - R;'I(iTB)) and (1 + Rj,l(iTB)) have the bounded
inverses (1 - R;,l(iTB))-1 and (1 + Rj ,l(iTB))-I. It is clear that this problem is

The proof of Theorem 6.2.5 follows the scheme of proof of Theorem 6.2.2 and
relies on formula (6.28) and on estimates (6.29) and

the assumptions

where M does not depend on r.
(6.32)
Now, the abstract Theorems 6.2.4 and 6.2.5 are applied in the investigation
of difference schemes of higher order of accuracy with respect to one variable for
approximate solutions of the mixed boundary-value problem (6.6). The discretization of problem (6.6) is carried out in two steps. In the first step let us define the
grid sets
o:S
:S Nr,hrNr = L,r = 1, ... ,n},
mr
Oh
n n 0, Sh = n n S.
h
We introduce the Banach space L 2(n h) of the grid functions eph(x) = {ep(h1ml'
... , hnmn )} defined on h , equipped with the norm
II eph
II L2 (i'i h )=
(2: leph(xWh 1 h )!.

n
xEn h
To the differential operator AX generated by problem (6.6) we assign the difference

operator AI': by the formula
(6.33)
acting in the space of grid functions uh(x), satisfying the conditions uh(x) = 0
for all x E Sh. It is known that AI': is a self-adjoint positive definite operator in
L2 (n h ). With the help of AI': we arrive at the initial-value problem

In the second step we replace problem (6.34) by the difference schemes (6.27)

to obtain stability estimates for the solutions of these difference schemes.

Two-Step Difference Schemes Generated

We consider again the initial-value problem (6.1). For the construction of the twostep difference schemes of an arbitrary high order of accuracy for the approximate
solutions of the initial-value problem (6.1) we consider again a uniform grid space
[0, T]r =
{tk
= kT, k = 0, 1, ... , N, N 7 = T}.
Let the function v(t)(O ~ t ~ T) have a (2l + 2j + 2)-th continuous derivative

and tk-1, tk, tkH E [0, T]r- Then by Theorem 3.2.2 we have the following Taylor
decomposition on three points:

Suppose further that the function v(t) (0 ~ t ~ T) has a (2l + 2j + 1)th continuous derivative. Then by Theorem 2.2.1 we have the following Taylor

Now, we will consider the applications of the Taylor decomposition (6.36) of

function vet) on three points and Taylor's decomposition (6.38) of function vet)
on three points to approximate solutions of the initial-value problem (6.1). From
(6.36) and (6.38) it is clear that for the approximate solution of the problem (6.1)
it is necessary to find v(j)(r) for any s, 1 :S s :S 2l, V(2s)(tk) for any s, 1 :S s :S l
and v(2s)(tk_t}, V(2s) (tk+t} for any s, 1 :S s :S j. Using the equation
V"(t) = -Av(t)
+ Jet),
we obtain

Suppose further that the function v(t)(O :S t :S T) has a (2l + 2j - 2m + 2)th continuous derivative. Then by Theorem 2.2.1 we have the following Taylor
decomposition on two points:

From formula (6.44) it follows that the investigation of the stability of difference
schemes (6.43) relies in an essential manner on a number of properties of the powers
of the operator Rj,I(irA). We were not able to obtain estimates for powers of
the operator Rj,1 (irA) in the general cases of numbers j and l.

for the approximate solution of the initial-value problem (6.1). In a similar manner
one can obtain the stability inequalities for the solution of the two-step difference
schemes (6.48).
Now, the abstract Theorem 6.3.1 is applied in the investigation of difference
schemes of higher order of accuracy with respect to one variable for approximate

solutions of the mixed boundary-value problem (6.6). The first step of discretization of problem (6.6) is given above. Suppose that the operator

In the present chapter we consider two abstract Cauchy problems

for differential equations in an arbitrary Banach space E with the positive operator
A and an arbitrary f parameter multiplying the derivative term. The high order of
accuracy single-step uniform difference schemes generated by an exact difference
scheme of the approximate solutions for differential equations of parabolic type
with an arbitrary parameter f on the highest derivative are presented. The high
order of accuracy two-step uniform difference schemes generated by an exact difference scheme of the approximate solutions for differential equations of the elliptic
and hyperbolic types with an arbitrary parameter f on the highest derivative are
presented. The well-posedness of these difference schemes for parabolic and elliptic equations in various Banach spaces is established. The stability estimates of
solutions of a high order of accuracy difference schemes for hyperbolic equations
with an arbitrary f parameter on the highest derivative are obtained.
7.1
A Cauchy Problem for Parabolic Equations
We consider the abstract Cauchy problem for the differential equation
fV/(t)
+ Av(t) = f(t) (0::; t ::; T), v(O) = Vo
(7.1)
in an arbitrary Banach space E with the (unbounded) operator A. Here v(t) and
f(t) are the unknown and the given functions, respectively, defined on [0, T] with

values in E. The derivative v'(t) is understood as the limit in the norm of E of

the corresponding ratio of differences. A is a given, closed, linear operator in E.
We will assume that the operator A has dense domain D(A) and that for A ~ 0
the operator A + AI has a bounded inverse whose norm satisfies the inequality
II (A + A1)-l
IIE-+E:::; M(A

(7.2)
where I is the identity operator. Obviously (7.2) is fulfilled when the operator -A
is the generator of a strongly continuous semigroup exp( -tA)(t ~ 0), for which
the estimate

The element v(t) belongs to D(A) for all t E [0, T] and the function Av(t) is
continuous on [0, T].
v(t) satisfies the equation and the initial condition (7.1).
In Chapter 4 the stable high order of accuracy difference schemes generated

by an exact difference scheme or by Taylor's decomposition on two points for the
numerical solutions of an abstract Cauchy problem (7.1) for c = 1 were presented.
These difference schemes can be applied in the general c E (0,00). However, it can
be shown in general that no classic finite difference approximations yield uniform
convergence with respect to c. This is a very disappointing result and it raises the
question whether there are any difference schemes which are uniform in c? The
main result of this chapter gives an answer to this question. Actually, we study the
high order of accuracy single-step uniform difference schemes of the approximate
solutions for differential equations of parabolic type with an arbitrary parameter
c on the highest derivative.
On the segment [0, T] we consider a uniform grid
[O,T]r = {tk = kT,k = 0, 1, ... ,N,N7 = T}

Let us reduce the difference schemes (7.5) to an operator problem in the space
FT(E) of vectors vT = {vkH"=l' Recall that the space FT(E) can be equipped with
various norms and thus become a normed space (see Chapter 4). Thus, for instance,
the vector space FT(E) generates the normed space CT(E) = C([O, T]n E) with
the norm
I <pTllcT(E) = l~~N I <Pk liE'

the normed space C~(E) = C,6([O, T]n E) 0 < {3 < 1, with the norm

First we will define the operator D n acting from the space E x FT(E) of vectors

346
Second we will define an operator AT from the space E x FT(E) of vectors w T =

{wdf=o into the space FT(E) of vectors v T = {vk}f=l by the rule
v T = ATwT,Vk = p-1(1 - g(pA)) Wk-1, k = 1, ... , N.
Next, let us introduce the continuation operator TI( uo), which acts from Ex FT (E)

Therefore, (7.7) is the generalized stability inequality of (7.5) in CT(E).

We say that the difference problem (7.5) has an m-th order of accuracy in
FT(E) on the solutions v(t) of the Cauchy problem (7.1) if the error vector
where M is independent not only 7, but also of c.

Generalized stability inequality (7.7) permits us to obtain the convergence of
(7.5) in CT(E).

Note that for the convergence estimate I {v(t k ) - Uk)}i" IlpT(E) :S M7 m it
suffices to obtain the generalized stability inequality in FT(E).
From formula (7.6) one derives the following result.

Using the last estimate and inequality (7.8), we obtain estimate (7.13). Theorem

Remark 7.1.4. Theorems 7.1.1 and 7.1.3 permit us to obtain error estimates of
the high order of accuracy difference schemes over time and space variables for
parabolic equations and the first-order hyperbolic system of equations with a small

k > 2r. Estimate (7.17) follows from the triangle inequality and estimates (7.18)
and (7.19). Theorem 7.1.5 is proved.
The initial-value difference problem (7.5) is said to be well posed (coercively
stable) in F.,. (E) if we have the coercive stability inequality

~ M[lj
Since the initial-value differential problem (7.1) in C(E) is not well posed for
the general strongly positive operator A and space E, then the well-posedness of
the initial-value difference problem in C.,.(E) norm does not take place uniformly
with respect to 7 > 0 and c. This means that the coercive norm
tends to 00 as 7 -+ +0 . The investigation of the difference problem (7.5) permits

us to establish the order of growth of this norm to 00. First, let us prove a lemma
that will be needed in the sequel.

Remark 7.1.17. Theorems 7.1.5-7.1.16 permit us to obtain the error estimates of

the high order of accuracy difference schemes over time and space variables for
parabolic equations with a small parameter multiplying the time-derivative term
in the various Banach norms.
Remark 7.1.18. For practical computations, we have been approximating the elliptic operator A by some difference operator A h such that exp( -pA h ) is computable.
Thus, we shall construct difference schemes with fitting operator exp( -pA h ).
Therefore for numerical solution of (7.1) it is necessary to compute by (7.5)
exp( -pA h ) with a high order of accuracy. Accordingly, the methods we have proposed are not easy to implement exactly as for a system of ordinary differential
equations. Indeed, method (7.5) is useful, because the part of compute fitting operator exp( -pA h ) with a high order of accuracy we can make independent of (7.5).
For example, we can approximate exp( -pA h ) by the formula
Rj,I(PAh), if E :S a,
{ Rfl(wA h ), if E > a,
where L =
7.2
[H Lw = p, j + l = m (for Rj,l(pA h ), see Chapter 4).
A Boundary-Value Problem for Elliptic Equations
We consider the boundary-value problem for differential equation

2
-E V" (t)
+ Av(t) = f(t)
(0:S t :S T), v(o) = vo, v(T) = VT
(7.35)
in an arbitrary Banach space E with the positive operator A and E E (0,00).

A function v(t) is called a solution of the problem (7.35) if the following
conditions are satisfied:
1.
v(t) is a twice continuously differentiable on the interval [0, T]. The derivatives at the endpoints of the segment are understood as the appropriate
unilateral derivatives.
ii. The element v(t) belongs to D(A) for all t E [0, T] and the function Av(t) is
iii. v(t) satisfies the equation and boundary conditions (7.35).
In Chapter 5, stable high order of accuracy difference schemes generated by

an exact difference scheme or by Taylor's decomposition on three points for the
numerical solutions of an abstract boundary-value problem (7.35) for E = 1 were
presented. Unfortunately, these difference schemes cannot be applied for the approximate solutions of (7.35) in the general cases E E (0,00). In this section we
study the high order of accuracy two-step uniform difference schemes of the approximate solutions for differential equations of the elliptic type with an arbitrary
parameter E on the highest derivative.

with step r. Let r = pc and B 2 = A. By Theorem 3.1.2 we have the exact two-step

Let us reduce the difference schemes (7.37) to an operator problem in the space

various norms and thus become a normed space (see Chapter 5). Thus, for instance,

Second we shall define an operator AT acting from the space E x FT(E) x E of

vectors wT = {wd~=o into the space FT(E) of vectors v T = {vdf~l according to
the rule
vT = ATwT,vk = ~[(I - g(pB))(Wk-l +wk+d
p
+(g(2pB) - I)wk], k = 1, ... , N - 1.

Next, let us introduce the continuation operator l1(uo, UN), which acts from E x
FT(E) x E to FT(E) according to the rule
Then, dearly, the difference problem (7.37) is equivalent to the operator problem
Here

r
= (fI,, fN-l).
E FT(E) it follows that its solution u T
solvability for any Uo, UN E E and
defines a continuous additive and homogeneous operator UT (r , Uo, UN).
We will study stability and coercive stability of the boundary-value problem
(7.37) in the difference analogues of Banach spaces. Since
!k
= !I,k
+ h,k+l
- g(pB)(!I,k+l
+ h,k), 1 ~
(7.39)
k ~ N - 1,
we have that if
E FT(E), then f1 = (!I,I, ... ,!I,N-l,!I,N) E FT(E) x E and
= (h,I, ... ,h,N-l,h,N) E FT(E) x E. Note that FT(E) is the vector space
whose elements are ordered (N -l)-tuples of elements of E. The space FT(E) can
be equipped with various norms and thus become a normed space (see Chapter 5).
Nevertheless, FT(E) x E is the vector space whose elements are ordered N-tuples
of elements of E. In a similar way one obtains that the space FT(E) x E can be
equipped with various norms and thus become a normed space. We will use the
same notation for both cases. For instance, the vector space FT(E) generates the
normed space CT(E) = C([O, T]T' E) with the norm
12
and the vector space FT(E) x E generates the normed space CT(E) = C([O, T]n E)
with the norm

A function v(t) is called a solution of the problem (7.53) if the following

ii. The element v(t) belongs to D(A) for all t E [0, T] and the function Av(t) is

In Chapter 6, stable high order of accuracy difference schemes generated

by an exact difference scheme or by Taylor's decomposition on the three points
for the numerical solutions of an abstract initial-value problem (7.53) for e = 1
were presented. Unfortunately, these difference schemes cannot be applied for the
approximate solutions of (7.53) in the general cases e E (0,00). In this section
we study the high order of accuracy two-step uniform difference schemes of the
approximate solutions for differential equations of the hyperbolic type with an
arbitrary parameter e on the highest derivative. The stability estimates of the
solutions of these difference schemes are obtained.
On the segment [0, T] we consider again a uniform grid

with step 7. Let 7 = pc and B 2

for k - 1 and k. Using the formula

Thus, formula (7.57) is true for k + 1. Therefore, formula (7.57) is true for all k.

The proof of Theorem 7.3.1 is based on formula (7.57) and estimates (7.55).

Remark 7.3.3. Theorem 7.3.2 permits us to obtain the error estimates of the
high order of accuracy difference schemes for hyperbolic equations with a small
parameter multiplying time-derivative term in the various Banach norms.
Remark 7.3.4. Applying this approach we can construct the high order of accuracy uniform difference schemes for three singular perturbation problems involving
second-order differential equations in a Banach space E. The equations are

where A, B are linear, generally unbounded operators in E. In each case, the usual
initial conditions are given:

Differential Equations
Chapter 8 is devoted to study of the initial-value problem for delay partial differential equations of the parabolic type. A sufficient condition for stability of the
solution of this initial-value problem is given. The stability estimates for solutions
of the first and second order of accuracy difference schemes for approximately
solving this initial-value problem are presented. The stability estimates in Holder
norms for solutions of the initial-value problem of the delay differential and difference equations of the parabolic type are obtained.

in E with dense domains D(A) s:; D(B(t)). Let A be a strongly positive operator,
i.e., -A is the generator of the analytic semigroup exp{ -tA}(t 2: 0) of the linear
bounded operators with exponentially decreasing norm when t ----7 00. That means
the following estimates hold:

(8.2)
for some M > 1, <5 > O. Let B(t) be closed operators. The operator function B(t)
is strongly continuous on D(A).
A function v( t) is called a solution of problem (8.1) if the following conditions
are satisfied:
i. v( t) is continuously differentiable on the interval [-w, 00). The derivative at
the endpoint t = -w is understood as the appropriate unilateral derivative.

Av(t) is continuous on the interval [-w, (0).
iii. v(t) satisfies the equation and the initial condition (8.1).
A solution v(t) of the initial-value problem (8.1) is said to be stable if

for every t, -w 'S t < 00. We are interested in studying the stability of solutions
of the initial-value problem under the assumption that
(8.4)
holds for every t 2: O. We have not been able to obtain estimate (8.3) in an
arbitrary Banach space E. Nevertheless, we can establish the analog of estimates
(8.3) where the space E is replaced by the fractional spaces Ea(O < a < 1) under
a stronger assumption than (8.4). Stability estimates for the solutions of the first
and second order of accuracy difference schemes for approximately solving this
initial-value problem are presented. The stability estimates in Holder norms for
solutions of the initial-value problem of delay differential and difference equations
of the parabolic type are obtained.
The strongly positive operator A defines the fractional spaces EO!. = EO!. (E, A)

solution. This allows us to reduce the initial-value problem (8.24) to the initialvalue problem (8.1) in a Banach space E with a strongly positive operator AX =
Ai + M defined by (8.25). Let us give a number of corollaries of the abstract
Theorems 8.1.1 and 8.2.1.
Theorem 8.2.5. Assume that

sup Ib(t)1 ~ M2 2 - Ct '

O~t<oo
Then the solutions of the initial-value problem (8.24) satisfy the stability estimates
where M 2 (a) does not depend on g(t,x). Here CE(IRn) is the space of functions
satisfying a Holder condition with the indicator E (0,1).
The proof of theorem 8.2.5 is based on the estimate
and on the abstract Theorem 8.1.1, on the strong positivity of the operator AX in
c13(IRn), and on equivalence of the norms in the spaces E Ct = ECt(C(IRn), AX) and
C 2mCt(lR n ) when 0 < a < 2~ (see Chapter 4).
Let us define the grid space IRh(O < h ~ h o) as the set of all points of the
Euclidean space Rn whose coordinates are given by
Xi

To the differential operator AX =

uh(t, x) = gh(t, x) = g(t, x)( -w ::; t ::; 0), x E lR. h,
(8.26)
for an infinite system of ordinary differential equations. Now, we replace problem

(8.26) by the first-order of accuracy in t difference scheme

Theorem 8.2.6. Assume that all the conditions of Theorem 8.2.5 are satisfied. Then
for the solution of difference scheme (8.27) the estimate
holds.
The proof of Theorem 8.2.6 is based on the estimate
and on the abstract Theorem 8.2.1, the positivity of the operator A h in C(IR. h),
and on the fact that the Eo: = Eo:(C(IR. h), Ah)-norms are equivalent to the norms
C 2mo:(IR.h) uniformly in h for 0 < Q < 2~ (see Chapter 4).

Chapter 4
The role played by coercive inequalities in the study of boundary-value problems
for elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations is well known (see, e.g., [4a,
6a-b, 107a, 108a, 174a]).
Coercivity inequalities for the solutions of an abstract differential equation of
parabolic type were established for the first time in [154a]. The Cauchy problem
for such an equation was considered in various spaces F(E) of functions defined
on the segment [0, T] with values in a Banach space E, and it was established
that a necessary condition for coercivity is the strong positivity of the operator
coefficients A(t). This condition is also sufficient in the spaces C~'CE). In the
case of the spaces Lp(E) with P E (1,00) the following extrapolation result was
established: for the Cauchy problem to be coercive in Lp(E) for all such p it suffices
that it be coercive for some Po E (1,00).
As noted above, in contrast with Lp(E), in the spaces C~'CE) an unconditional coercivity inequality holds, and in connection with this there arises the
question of whether the same is valid for the ordinary Holder space CCE). In [16u]
it was shown that the coercivity inequality in CCE) holds under the additional
assumption that A(O)vo - f (0) E Ec<,
The coercivity inequality was established in the two-parameter series of
spaces C~'''! (E) with 0 < {3 < 1,0 :::; "( :::; {3, under the additional assumption
that A(O)vo - f (0) E E{3_"!' Furthermore the spaces of smooth functions C~'''! (E),
in which coercive solvability has been established, depend on the parameters {3 and
"(. However, the constants in the coercive inequalities depend only on {3. Hence, we
can choose the parameter {3 freely, which increases the number of function spaces
412
in which problem (4.1) is well posed. Moreover the coercivity inequality was established in the three-parameter series of spaces Cg,'Y(Eo_l3) with 0 < a < 1,
o ~ 'Y ~ f3 ~ a, under the additional assumption that A(O)vo - f (0) E Eo-'Y'
Furthermore the spaces of smooth functions Cg,'Y(Eo_I3), in which coercive solvability has been established, depend on the parameters a, f3 and 'Y. However, the
parameters f3 and 'Y freely, which increases the number of function spaces in which
problem (4.1) is well posed [16h, 351, 94a].
Earlier an unconditional coercivity inequality was established in the spaces
W;(E) with 1 ~ p < 00, 0 < a < 1 [lIa, 89a], as well as in the spaces Lp(Eo,p)
with 0 < a < 1, 1 ~ p ~ 00 [154g, 69a-b, 35d, 135a].
Finally, let us mention the paper [64a], in which an unconditional coercivity
inequality in Lp(E) was established under the assumption that the imaginary
powers A i l3 are bounded (in some restrictions of the space E).
The application of this result to parabolic partial differential equations allowed one to obtain a series of new coercivity inequalities involving different norms
with respect to t and the space variables.
In this book we do not discuss results on the well-posedness of the nonlocal
boundary-value problems for parabolic and parabolic-elliptic equations, for which
the reader is referred to the papers [16t, 23a-b, 24a, 31b, 36c].
The material in Section 1 was written on the basis of the papers [106a, 154a,
154g, 154m, 16u, 16h, 351, 94a, 69a-b, 35d, 135a, 162~.
The construction of the discretization with respect to time for parabolic equations was initiated in Rothe's paper [133a]. When the study of the discretization
with respect to t for the abstract Cauchy problem is applied to parabolic partial
differential equations, it also covers the case of the full discretization with respect
to time and space variables.
To prove stability, in a number of works (see [la, 3a, 1I4a, 1I5a, 139a,
140a, 141a, 142a, 171a-b] and the references given therein) difference schemes
were treated as operator equations in a Hilbert space, and the investigation was
based on the symmetry properties of operator coefficients. This led to Lz-stability
estimates.
Of great interest is the study of stability in the C-norm. In [lOa, 12a, 76a,
144a-d, 163a-b, 177a] the corresponding estimates were obtained for the simplest
difference schemes approximating the Cauchy problem for parabolic equations and
systems with constant coefficients and one space variable. The proof is based on
estimates of parabolic difference Green function (fundamental solutions). In the
case of parabolic equations with variable coefficient and more than one space
variable, stability in the C-norm is known to hold only for difference schemes that
satisfy a maximum principle (see [1I5a, 141a]).
An important type of stability is the coercive stability (well-posedness) of
difference schemes. There are no coercive estimates in the C-norm, because they
do not hold for the corresponding differential equations. The coercive stability
413
of difference schemes of first order of accuracy was apparently studied for the
first time in [158a, 158b] for the first boundary-value problem for second-order
parabolic equations in 2. A more general sharp-angle inequality for parabolic
difference operators was established. Then followed the works [lOa, 65a, 87a, 99a,
158b, 158c], where coercive inequalities in the L 2 - and Lp-norms were given. In
[154d] difference schemes are treated as operator equations in Banach spaces. In
a Banach space there is no notion of symmetry and for this reason the study of
stability relies on the positivity property of the operator coefficients, expressed
in terms of properties of their resolvents. In this way in [154d] coercive estimates
were established in difference analogues of Holder spaces with weight with respect
to the time variable. Enlisting the theory of positive operators turned out to be
effective in the investigation of such difference schemes in difference analogues
of Bochner spaces (see [127a, 127b]). The coercivity inequality in the difference
analogue of the Bochner spaces L p ( T, E) holds for any P E (1,00) whenever it
holds for at least one Po E (1,00), i.e., here we have a result analogous to that in
the differential case [154a].
An unconditional coercivity inequality in the spaces Lq(T, E~,q) (0 < a <
1, 1 ~ q ~ (0) was obtained in [35d, 35e]. One is led to asking whether a coercivity inequality holds for the Rothe difference scheme in the difference analogue
of the usual Holder space COt (T, E). The answer turns out to be affirmative under
the additional restrictions A(O)uo - II E E~. This result is a particular case of the
assertion that the difference problem is coercive in the two-parameter family of Banach spaces Ct'l(E) with 0 < (3 < 1, 0 ~ 'Y ~ (3, under the additional assumption
that A(O)uo - II E E~_". Furthermore the spaces
(T, E), in which coercive
solvability has been established, depend on the parameters (3 and "f. However, the
constants in the coercive inequalities depend only on (3. Hence, we can choose the
parameter (3 freely, which increases the number of spaces in which a Rothe difference scheme for problem (4.1) is well posed. Moreover the coercivity inequality was
established in the three-parameter series of spaces Cg'''(T, E Ot -(3) with 0 < a < 1,
o ~ 'Y ~ (3 ~ a, under the additional assumption that A(O)uo - II E E~_".
Furthermore the spaces Cg'''(T, E~_(3)' in which coercive solvability has been established, depend on the parameters a, (3 and 'Y. However, the constants in the
coercive inequalities depend only on a. Hence, we can choose the parameters (3
and 'Y freely, which increases the number of spaces in which a Rothe difference
scheme for problem (4.1) is well posed [16h, 351, 94a].

The utilization of Pade approximants for computational purposes has a long

history. The approximants R1,1(Z) and R2,2(Z) were first applied by Euler to calculate the scalar exponential. The fact that these approximants are attributed to
Pade is based on his 1892 dissertation, in which he studied and tabulated them.
In recent years we have seen a sharp rise in the interest in classical methods of rational approximation of analytical functions, primarily in Pade approximants and
their application to physics and engineering problems. For a detailed exposition
of these investigation we refer the reader to [43a].
414
Apparently the first study that uses rational approximation of exp{ - 7 A} in

the case of a positive (unbounded) self-adjoint operator A was carried out in the
paper [171a], which deals with approximation on the positive half-line.
That study was continued by a number of authors [58a, 139a, 171b]. In applications to problems of mathematical physics this resulted in stability and convergence estimates for difference schemes in 2'
The application of the approximants Rj,l (7 A) in the construction of difference
schemes in the case of an unbounded strongly positive operator A acting in an
arbitrary Banach space E has been systematically developed by several authors
(see, e.g., [7a-e, 16a-d, 16g, 16p, 16r, 32a, 35a-b, 35e-h, 351-m, 37a, 54a, 55a, 56a,
60a, 77a, 81a-b, 91a-c, 95a, 97a, 124b, 127c-e, 130a, 154d~f, 154i, 155a-b, 85a,
104a, 125a, 173a]). In [161, 54a, 95a] difference schemes were studied for a class of
operators that generate not only analytic, but also strongly continuous semigroups.
Most of the results of the stability and coercive stability in the Banach spaces of
the single-step difference schemes of a high order of accuracy generated by RJ,1 (7 A)
for parabolic equations were considered in the book [351]. The application of these
results to the initial-value problem for parabolic equations allowed one to obtain
a series of new coercivity inequalities in difference analogies of various norms with
respect to t and x for the solutions of difference schemes of a high order of accuracy
in time and space variables.
However, the theory of a high order of accuracy single-step difference schemes
for parabolic differential equations with variable operator coefficients have received
less attention than parabolic differential equations with coefficients independent
of time. Most of the results of the stability and coercive stability in the Banach
spaces of the single-step difference schemes of the first and second order of accuracy generated by the Pade approximants for first-order differential equations in
the case of an unbounded strongly positive operators A(t) acting in an arbitrary
Banach space E were obtained in the papers [16e, 35c, 126a, 154i-j, 161a]. The
application of Pade approximants for parabolic equations with variable operator
coefficients A(t) was continued by a number of authors [143a-b, 178a]. The difference schemes of the third, fourth and fifth order of accuracy were constructed and
investigated. In applications to problems of mathematical physics this resulted
in stability and convergence estimates for difference schemes in 2. In [42a, 49a,
lOOa, 143a] Runge-Kutta difference schemes were studied for parabolic equations
with variable operator coefficients A(t).
The application of the Pade approximants to the Cauchy problem for parabolic equations with variable operator coefficients A(t) acting in an arbitrary Banach space E relies on the approximate formulas for expressions
I1
tk
V(tk, tk-d and -:;
V(tk, s)f(s)ds.
tk-l
Unfortunately, in the general case of operators A(t) the explicit formula for
V(tk, tk-d does not exist. Therefore, in this case we cannot use approaches of the
415
construction of Pade difference schemes for parabolic equations with coefficients

independent of time.
The single-step difference schemes of a high order of accuracy generated by
an exact difference scheme for parabolic equations with variable operator coefficients A(t) acting in an arbitrary Banach space E were presented for the first time
in [35j]. They were based on a series of interesting properties concerning the semigroup exp{ -sA(t)} (s 2': 0) and the fundamental solution v(t, s) of (4.1). These
properties and series of interesting estimates for Rj,zCr A(tk)) and u(k, m) permit
us to study the stability and the coercive stability of presented difference schemes.
That study was continued in [160, 16q]. Furthermore the high order of accuracy
difference schemes generated by Taylor's decomposition on two points for the approximate solutions of the Cauchy problem for parabolic equations with variable
operator coefficients A(t) acting in an arbitrary Banach space E were presented.
The well-posedness of these difference schemes in various Banach spaces were studied. The stability and coercive stability estimates in Banach norms for solutions of
high order of accuracy difference schemes of mixed type boundary-value problems
for parabolic equations were obtained.
The study of high order of accuracy difference schemes in the case of strongly
positive operators A(t) allowed us to establish not only the stability, but also
the coercive stability in difference analogues of Banach spaces. The application
of these abstract results to mixed type boundary-value problems for parabolic
equations relies on the following facts: the strong positivity of an elliptic difference
operator A~x in the Banach space Eh, the well-posedness of the resolvent equation
of A~x in E h or in E~,p(Eh, A~X), 1 ::; P ::; 00, the structure of fractional spaces
E~,p(Eh, A~X).
The strong positivity of the wider class of differential operators has been
studied by a number of authors [4a, 5a, 89b, lOla, l03a, l54c, l54k, l59a-b,
l60a-b].
The strong positivity of elliptic difference operators in Hilbert norms was
studied in many works (see, e.g., [1l4a, 140a, 141a]). Such a study is based on the
self-adjointness and positive definiteness of the principal part of the operators A~x.
Considerably less studied is the strong positivity or simple positivity of difference operators in Banach norms. For second-order elliptic operators and the
simplest difference scheme, positivity in the Ch-norm follows from the maximum
principle (see [140a, 144a-b]).
The strong positivity in difference analogue of weighted Holder space for an
elliptic difference operator A~x of second order of accuracy that approximates an
elliptic operator without mixed derivatives was established in [154d].
The strong positivity of the simplest multidimensional second-order elliptic
difference operator in the Lp,h- and Ch-norms was established in [7a-c]. The most
thorough study of the strong positivity in the Ch-and C~ -norms of a wide class of
operators that approximate elliptic operators of arbitrary order in Rn was carried
out in [35e, l52a-d]. The situation is different for difference operators that ap-
416
proximate boundary-value problems for an elliptic equation. The positivity in the

Ch - and
-norms of difference operators of this type was studied in a number of
particular cases [7a, 28a, 28c, 61a-c].
For the well-posedness of the resolvent equation of A~x in E h or in
Ce
E~,p(Eh, A~X), 1 ~ P ~ 00
we refer the reader to Chapter 5 of the present work.

Finally, let us comment on the structure of fractional spaces. It is established that for any 0 < Q < 112m and 1 ~ P ~ 00 the norms in the spaces
E~,p(Lp(R'hJ, A~X) and WgmQ(R'h) are equivalent uniformly in h. This fact corresponds to the following equality, known in interpolation theory (see [166a]):
E~,p(Lp(Rn), A~X) = w;mQ(R n ), 0
< Q < 112m, 1 ~ P ~ 00,
which in turn follows from the equality D(At,X) = wgmQ(Rn) for a 2mth-order
elliptic operator At,x in Lp(Rn), 1 ~ P ~ 00, via the real interpolation method.
The alternative method of investigation adopted in [160, 351], based on estimates
of fundamental solutions of the resolvent equation for the operator A~x, allows us
to consider also the cases P = 1 and P = 00.
This book does not touch upon the results of [19a, 26a, 27a, 36a-b, 36d, 29a,
44a-c] on the theory of the single-step difference schemes for nonlocal boundaryvalue problems.
Section 2 is based on the papers [160, 35j]. The results of Theorems 4.25-4.32
and 4.40-4.45 and the difference schemes (4.114), (4.115), (4.16) appear here for
the first time.
Section 3 is based on the paper [160]. The results of Theorems 4.59-4.62
appear here for the first time.
Chapter 5
Coercivity inequalities for the solutions of an abstract differential equation of elliptic type were established for the first time in [154c]. The boundary-value problem
for such an equation was considered in various spaces F(E) of functions defined
on the segment [0, T] with values in a Banach space E, and it was established that
a necessary condition for coercivity is the positivity of the operator coefficient A.
This condition is also sufficient in the spaces C~TQ(E). In the case of the spaces
Lp(E) with p E (1,00) the following extrapolation result was established: for the
boundary-value problem to be coercive in Lp(E) for all such p it suffices that it
be coercive for some Po E (1, 00).
As noted above, in contrast to Lp(E), in the spaces Cg+Q(E) an unconditional
coercivity inequality holds, and in connection with this there arises the question
of whether the same is valid for the ordinary Holder space CQ(E). In [16j] it
was shown that the coercivity inequality in CQ(E) holds under the additional
assumptions that Avo - f (0) E E and AVT - f (T) E E
Q
417
The coercivity inequality was established in the two-parameter series of

spaces cgp(E) with 0 < (3 < 1,0 :S 'Y :S (3, under the additional assumptions
that Avo - f (0) E E/3-'Y and AVy - f (T) E E/3-T Furthermore the spaces
of smooth functions cgp (E), in which coercive solvability has been established,
depend on the parameters (3 and 'Y. However, the constants in the coercive inequalities depend only on (3. Hence, we can choose the parameter (3 freely, which
increases the number of function spaces in which problem (5.1) is well posed.
Moreover the coercivity inequality was established in the three-parameter series
of spaces Cgp(Ea - f3 ) with 0 < a < 1, 0 :S 'Y :S (3 :S a, under the additional
assumptions that Avo - f (0) E Ea-'Y and AVT - f (T) E Ea-'Y' Furthermore
the spaces of smooth functions cgp(Ea -/3), in which coercive solvability has been
established, depend on the parameters a, (3 and "(. However, the constants in the
coercive inequalities depend only on a. Hence, we can choose the parameters (3
and 'Y freely, which increases the number of function spaces in which problem (5.1)
is well posed [16j, 160].
Earlier an unconditional coercivity inequality was established in the spaces
Lp(Ea,p) with 0 < a < 1, 1 :S P :S 00 [89b].
The application of this result to elliptic partial differential equations allowed
one to obtain a series of new coercivity inequalities involving different norms with
respect to all variables.
In this book we do not discuss results on the well-posedness of the local and
nonlocal boundary-value problems for elliptic equations, for which the reader is
referred to the papers [9a, 16w, 21a-b, 28d, 34a, 84a-b, 86a, 145a-c, 148a].
The material in Section 1 was written on the basis of the papers [16j, 160,
154c, 154m, 89b].
The coercive stability of difference schemes of the second order of accuracy
was apparently studied for the first time in [120a] for the first boundary-value problem for second-order elliptic equations in L 2 . Then followed the works [12a, 169a,
170a, 66a-d, 179a, 134a, 158a-e, 78a-b, 117a, 118a-b], where coercive inequalities
in the L 2 - and Lp-norms were given. In [154d] difference schemes are treated as
operator equations in Banach spaces with the positive operator coefficient. In this
way coercive estimates were established in difference analogues of Holder spaces
with weight with respect to the one space variable. Enlisting the theory of positive
operators turned out to be effective in the investigation of such difference schemes
in difference analogues of Bochner spaces (see [127a, 127c]). The coercivity inequality in the difference analogues of the Bochner spaces Lp(r, E) holds for any
P E (1,00) whenever it holds for at least one Po E (1,00), i.e., here we have a
result analogous to that in the differential case [154c]. That study was continued
in [128a-c, 129a, 154h, 1541, 28b, 35j].
The applications of the Pade approximants in the theory of the high order
of accuracy two-step difference schemes for elliptic differential equations have received less attention than parabolic differential equations. The two-step difference
schemes of a high order of accuracy generated by an exact difference scheme for
418
elliptic equations with the operator coefficient A acting in an arbitrary Banach

space E were presented for the first time in [16j]. The series of interesting estimates for R;,l (T A ~) permit us to study the stability and the coercive stability of
presented difference schemes. That study was continued in [160, 16n]. Furthermore
the high order of accuracy difference schemes generated by Taylor's decomposition
on three points for the approximate solutions of the boundary-value problem for
elliptic equations with the operator coefficient A acting in an arbitrary Banach
space E were presented. The well-posedness of these difference schemes in various Banach spaces were studied. The stability and coercive stability estimates in
Banach norms for solutions of the high order of accuracy difference schemes of
mixed type boundary-value problems for elliptic equations were obtained [35k].
That study was continued in [16i, 160, 16s, 35n, 81c, 82a].
The study of the high order of accuracy difference schemes in the case of
positive operator A allowed us to establish not only the stability, but also the
coercive stability in difference analogues of Banach spaces. The application of these
abstract results to the mixed type boundary-value problems for elliptic equations
relies on the following facts: the positivity of an elliptic difference operator AI; in
the Banach space Eh' the well-posedness of the resolvent equation of AI; in E h or in
E~,p(Eh, (AI;)~), 1 S p S 00, the structure of fractional spaces E~,p(Eh, (AI;)~).
For the positivity of the wider class of differential and difference elliptic
operators we refer the reader to Chapter 4 of the present work.
Finally, let us comment on the structure of fractional spaces. It is established
that for any 0 < 0: < 1/2 and 1 S p Soothe norms in the spaces E~,p(Eh, (AI;) ~)
and E 2cx ,p(Eh, AI;) are equivalent uniformly in h. Therefore for the structure of
fractional spaces E~,p(Eh, (AI;)~) we refer the reader to Chapter 4 of the present
work.
Section 2 is based on the papers [16j, 160]. The results of Theorems 5.23-5.48,
5.32-5.46 and 5.51-5.57 appear here for the first time.
Section 3 is based on the papers [160, 16s, 35k, 35n]. The results of Theorems
5.67-5.68 and 5.70-5.73 appear here for the first time.
Chapter 6
The method of operators as a tool for investigation of the solution to hyperbolic
differential equations in Hilbert and Banach spaces, has been systematically developed by several authors (see, e.g., [2a, 75a, 85a, 104a, 125a, 154b, 156a, 173a]).
A large cycle of works on difference schemes for hyperbolic partial differential
equations (see, e.g., [16f, 124a, 124c, 124d] and the references given therein), in
which stability was established under the assumption that the magnitude of the
grid steps T and h with respect to the time and space variables are connected.
In abstract terms this means, in particular, that the condition TllAhl1 ---+ 0 when
T ---+ 0 is satisfied.
419
Of great interest is the study of absolute stable difference schemes of a high

order of accuracy for hyperbolic partial differential equations, in which stability
was established without any assumptions in respect of the grid steps T and h.
Such type stability inequalities for solutions of the first order of accuracy difference
scheme for differential equations of hyperbolic type were established for the first
time in [157a]. The new first and second order of accuracy difference schemes
approximately solving the abstract initial-value problem for hyperbolic equations
in a Hilbert space were presented in [30a, 350]. Applying the operator approach,
stability estimates for the solution of these difference schemes were obtained. In
[16f] the high order of accuracy two-step difference schemes generated by an exact
difference scheme for the numerical solutions of this problem were presented. The
convergence and stability estimates for the solutions of these difference schemes
were established.
This book does not touch upon the results of [17a, 25a-b, 30b, 30c, 31a, 38ad, 39a] on the theory of difference schemes for nonlocal problems for hyperbolic,
hyperbolic-parabolic, hyperbolic-elliptic equations. In this book we do not discuss
results on the difference schemes of the Goursat problem for hyperbolic equations
and the Cauchy problem for systems of differential equations of first order, for
which the reader is referred to the papers [14a, 15a, 33a].
Sections 1 and 2 are based on the paper [16f]. The results of Theorems 6.4-6.9
appear here for the first time.
The results of Section 3 appear here for the first time.
Chapter 1
The role played by asymptotic methods in the study of the solution of various
problems for elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic partial differential equations with
a small parameter in higher-order derivatives is well known (see, e.g., [75a, lOla,
104a, IlIa]).
Of great interest is the study of stability uniform difference schemes for partial
differential equations with a small parameter in higher-order derivatives (see, e.g.,
[16v, 40a, 52a, 53a, 67a, 73a-b, 96a, 98a-c, 149a, 150a, 151a, 164a]).
In Chapters 4, 5 and 6 the stability of a wide class of difference schemes
for partial differential equations was investigated. However, it can be shown that
these difference schemes for partial differential equations with a small parameter
in higher-order derivatives are not uniform in E: convergence. This is a very disappointing result and it raises the question whether there are any difference schemes
which are uniform in E: convergence.
The high order of accuracy single-step uniform difference schemes of the
approximate solutions of the Cauchy problem for the abstract parabolic differential
equations in an arbitrary Banach space E with the strongly positive operator
A and an arbitrary E: positive parameter multiplying the derivative term were
investigated in [16k] and generated by the exact single-step difference scheme,
420
which is presented in Chapter 4. The well-posedness of these difference schemes

in various Banach spaces were studied. That study was continued in [160].
The two-step uniform difference schemes of a high order of accuracy for the
approximate solutions of the boundary-value problem for abstract elliptic differential equations in an arbitrary Banach space E with the positive operator A and an
arbitrary E: positive parameter multiplying the derivative term were investigated
in [16m] and generated by the exact two-step difference scheme, which is presented
in Chapter 5. The well-posedness of these difference schemes in various Banach
spaces was established. That study was continued in [160].
In [22a-b] the high order of accuracy two-step uniform difference schemes
generated by an exact difference scheme of the approximate solutions for differential equations of hyperbolic type with an arbitrary parameter E: on the highest
derivative were presented. The stability estimates of the solutions of these difference schemes under the assumptions
IIc(t)IIE->E :::; M, IIA~s(t)IIE->E:::; M, 0:::; t < 00

in an arbitrary Banach space E were established. These estimates for the wider
class of differential operators in Banach and Hilbert spaces have been studied by
a number of authors (see, for example, [75a, 102a, 125a] and the references given
therein).
The material in Section 1 is written on the basis of the papers [16k, 160].
The results of Theorems 7.8-7.14 appear here for the first time.
The material in Section 2 is written on the basis of the papers [16m, 160].
The results of Theorems 7.22-7.27 appear here for the first time
The material in Section 3 is written on the basis of the papers [22a-b].
Chapter 8
The operator approach for theory and numerical solutions of the initial-value problem for evolution differential equations has been studied extensively by many researches (see [8a, 41a, 50a, 51a, 57a, 68a, 70a, 71a, 72a-b, 74a, 79a,80a, 81c, 82b,
83a, 112a, 119a-c, 121a, 122a, 123a, 124e, 131a-b, 132a, 146a, 147a-b, 167a, 168a,
169a, 175a, 176a-b] and the references therein).
Methods for numerical solutions of the delay ordinary differential equations
have been studied extensively in a large cycle of works (cf., e.g., [13a, 18a, 18b, 20a,
46a, 47a, 59a, 165a, 181a] and the references therein) and developed over the last
two decades. In this literature, stability of solutions of the difference schemes of
the initial-value problems for delay ordinary differential equations was considered
under the necessary condition of stability of the differential problem. However, the
theory and numerical solutions of delay partial differential equations have received
less attention than delay ordinary differential equations.
The role played by the operator approach in the study of the solution of
various problems for delay partial differential equations is well known (see, e.g.,
421
[35p, 62a]). In [35p] the initial-value problem for delay differential equations of
parabolic type was considered in the spaces C(Ea ) of functions defined on the
segment [0,00] with values in a Banach space Ea and the stability inequalities
were established under the stronger assumption than the necessary condition of
the stability of the differential problem. The stability estimates for the solutions of
the first and second order of accuracy difference schemes for approximately solving
this initial-value problem for delay differential equations of parabolic type were
presented. Stability estimates in Holder norms for solutions of the initial-value
problem of the delay differential and difference equations of parabolic type were
obtained.
The material in Sections 1 and 2 is written on the basis of the paper [35p].

Limit Operators and Their Applications in

2004. Appr. 408 pages. Hardcover
ISBN 3-7643-7081-5
The book is devoted to aclass of operators which
occurs in almost every part of mathematics: band
and band-dominated operators on spaces of
vector-valued sequences. The main emphasis is on
Fredholm theory for these operators, and the main
tool to study this topic is the method of limit
operators. This method provides ageneral approach
to treat quite different classes of operators from a
unique view: convolution type operators as well as
pseudo-difference operators on bad domains and
with bad coefficients.

Equations of Parabolic Type
ISBN 3-7643-7115-3
The theory of parabolic equations, awell-developed
part of the contemporary theory of partial differential
equations and mathematical physics, is the subject
of an immense research activity. Astable interest to
parabolic equations is caused both by the depth and
complexity of mathematical problems emerging here,
i5
and by its importance in applied problems of natural

science, technology, and economics.
This book aims at aconsistent and, as far as
possible, acomplete exposition of analytic methods
of constructing, investigating, and using
fundamental solutions of the Cauchy problem for the
following four classes of linear parabolic equations:
2b-parabolic partial differential equations, in which
every spatial variable may have its own weight with
respect to the time variable; degenerate partial
differential equations of Kolmogorov's structure,
which generalize classical Kolmogorov's equations of
diffusion with inertia; pseudo-differential equations
with non-smooth quasi-homogeneous symbols;
fractional diffusion equations.

From that and (1.3) it follows

Using formula (1.5), we can write

The proof of Theorem 1.1.2 is based on formulas (1.4) and (1.5).

Difference Equations of the Second Order

The second-order linear difference equations to be studied in this chapter may be

where <p and 'l/J are given numbers.

Now putting expressions for

Then the requirements (1.15) and

all k are satisfied.

1.3. Difference Equations with Constant Coefficients

Proof. From (1.13) it follows that

lall = JAIl :S 1. Let lakl :S 1. We will prove that

akakl 2: ICkl-lakllakl 2: hl-Iakl 2: Ibkl > o.

From that it follows Ck - akak

lakl :S 1 for all k, 1 :S k :S n.

lanl :S 1 and (1.11) it follows that

Thus Theorem 1.2.1 is proved.

and lAd :S 1, IA21 :S 1. Then the requirements (1.15) and

lakl < 1 for all 1 < k are
