Résumé

We consider the numerical solution of diffusion problems in $(0, T) \times Ω$ for $Ω \subset ℝ^{d}$ and for $T > 0$ in dimension $d \geq 1$ . We use a wavelet based sparse grid space discretization with mesh-width $h$ and order $p \geq 1$ , and $h p$ discontinuous Galerkin time-discretization of order $r = O (|log h|)$ on a geometric sequence of $O (|log h|)$ many time steps. The linear systems in each time step are solved iteratively by $O (|log h|)$ GMRES iterations with a wavelet preconditioner. We prove that this algorithm gives an $L^{2} (Ω)$ -error of $O (N^{- p})$ for $u (x, T)$ where $N$ is the total number of operations, provided that the initial data satisfies $u_{0} \in H^{ϵ} (Ω)$ with $ϵ > 0$ and that $u (x, t)$ is smooth in $x$ for $t > 0$ . Numerical experiments in dimension $d$ up to $25$ confirm the theory.
