A spectral collocation method for elliptic PDEs in irregular domains with Fourier extension
share
Based on the Fourier extension, we propose an oversampling collocation method for solving the elliptic partial differential equations with variable coefficients over arbitrary irregular domains. This method only uses the function values on the equispaced nodes, which has low computational cost and versatility. While a variety of numerical experiments are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this method, it shows that the approximation error fast reaches a plateau with increasing the degrees of freedom, due to the inherent ill-conditioned of frames.
