Verified norm estimation for the inverse of linear elliptic operators using eigenvalue evaluation

摘要

This paper proposes a verified numerical method of proving the invertibility of linear elliptic operators. This method also provides a verified norm estimation for the inverse operators. This type of estimation is important for verified computations of solutions to elliptic boundary value problems. The proposed method uses a generalized eigenvalue problem to derive the norm estimation. This method has several advantages. Namely, it can be applied to two types of boundary conditions: the Dirichlet type and the Neumann type. It also provides a way of numerically evaluating lower and upper bounds of target eigenvalues. Numerical examples are presented to show that the proposed method provides effective estimations in most cases.
