An Adaptive Wavelet Method for Solving High-Dimensional Elliptic PDEs

TLDR
It will be demonstrated that the resulting approxIMations converge in energy norm with the same rate as the best approximations from the span of the best N tensor product wavelets, where moreover the constant factor that the authors may lose is independent of the space dimension n.
Abstract
Adaptive tensor product wavelet methods are applied for solving Poisson’s equation, as well as anisotropic generalizations, in high space dimensions. It will be demonstrated that the resulting approximations converge in energy norm with the same rate as the best approximations from the span of the best N tensor product wavelets, where moreover the constant factor that we may lose is independent of the space dimension n. The cost of producing these approximations will be proportional to their length with a constant factor that may grow with n, but only linearly.

Space-time adaptive wavelet methods for parabolic evolution problems

TL;DR: With respect to space-time tensor-product wavelet bases, parabolic initial boundary value problems are equivalently formulated as bi-infinite matrix problems and adaptive wavelet methods are shown to yield sequences of approximate solutions which converge at the optimal rate.

Adaptive wavelet methods for solving operator equations: An overview

Rob Stevenson
TL;DR: In this article, Cohen, Dahmen and DeVore introduced adaptive wavelet methods for solving operator equations and proved that their adaptive methods were not only proven to converge, but also with a rate better than that of their non-adaptive counterparts in cases where the latter methods converge with a reduced rate due a lacking regularity of the solution.
