Monotone Finite-Difference Schemes of Second-Order Accuracy for Quasilinear Parabolic Equations with Mixed Derivatives

Аннотация

We consider the initial-boundary value problem for quasilinear parabolic equation with mixed derivatives and an unbounded nonlinearity. We construct unconditionally monotone and conservative finite-difference schemes of the second-order accuracy for arbitrary sign alternating coefficients of the equation. For the finite-difference solution, we obtain a two-sided estimate completely consistent with similar estimates for the solution of the differential problem, and also obtain an important a priori estimate in the uniform C-norm. These estimates are used to prove the convergence of finite-difference schemes in the grid L₂-norm. All theoretical results are obtained under the assumption that some conditions imposed only on the input data of the differential problem are satisfied.
