PIMS/CSC Weekly Seminar: Prof. Jay Gopalakrishnan, Portland State University

We will describe a few new developments creating a new class of DPG (discontinuous Petrov Galerkin) methods. These methods use spaces that yield stability constants that are optimal or close to optimal. Since stability of DPG methods  come from test space design, and not by stabilization  parameters, this forms a new stream of methods with useful properties
