Multi-level quasi-Monte Carlo finite element methods for a class of elliptic partial differential equations with random coefficients
(2012)SAM Research ReportThis paper is a sequel to our previous work $({Kuo, Schwab, Sloan, SIAM J.\ Numer.\ Anal., 2013})$ where quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods (specifically, randomly shifted lattice rules) are applied to Finite Element (FE) discretizations of elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs) with a random coefficient represented in a countably infinite number of terms. We estimate the expected value of some linear functional of the solution, as ...Report -
Quasi-Monte Carlo methods for high dimensional integration - the standard (weighted Hilbert space) setting and beyond
(2012)SAM Research ReportThis paper is a contemporary review of QMC ("quasi-Monte Carlo") methods, i.e., equal-weight rules for the approximate evaluation of high dimensional integrals over the unit cube $[0; 1]^s$. It first introduces the by-now standard setting of weighted Hilbert spaces of functions with square-integrable mixed first derivatives, and then indicates alternative settings, such as non-Hilbert spaces, that can sometimes be more suitable.
