Abstract

In this paper, we propose a numerical method to solve isotropic elliptic equations on point cloud by generalizing the point integral method. The idea of the point integral method is to approximate the differential operators by integral operators and discretize the corresponding integral equation on point cloud. The key step is to get the integral approximation. In this paper, with proper kernel function, we get an integral approximation for the elliptic operators with isotropic coefficients. Moreover, the integral approximation has been proved to keep the coercivity of the original elliptic operator. The convergence of the point integral method is also proved.
