Abstract
This paper introduces a cascadic adaptive finite element method for nonlinear eigenvalue equations arising from quantum physics following the multilevel correction strategy. Instead of the classical scheme, which requires solving nonlinear eigenvalue equations on a series of adaptive spaces directly, the new scheme consists of several smoothing processes on an adaptive space sequence and nonlinear eigenvalue equations being solved in a very low dimensional space. The main feature of the proposed scheme is that large-scale nonlinear eigenvalue problem solving is avoided, and the associated smoothing process can be executed efficiently based on the appropriate number of smoothing steps. Thus, efficiency can be enhanced by the proposed cascadic adaptive method. The good performance of the new finite element strategy is examined by various numerical experiments.
