We consider a class of nonlinear elliptic problems associated with models in biophysics, which are described by the Poisson–Boltzmann equation (PBE). We prove mathematical correctness of the problem, study a suitable class of approximations, and deduce guaranteed and fully computable bounds of approximation errors. The latter goal is achieved by means of the approach suggested in [] for convex variational problems. Moreover, we establish the error identity, which defines the error measure natural for the considered class of problems and show that it yields computable majorants and minorants of the global error as well as indicators of local errors that provide efficient adaptation of meshes. Theoretical results are confirmed by a collection of numerical tests that includes problems on 2D and 3D Lipschitz domains.

Inverse problems for elliptic equations with fractional power type nonlinearities
Liimatainen, Tony; Lin, Yi-Hsuan; Salo, Mikko; Tyni, Teemu (Elsevier, 2022)We study inverse problems for semilinear elliptic equations with fractional power type nonlinearities. Our arguments are based on the higher order linearization method, which helps us to solve inverse problems for certain ... -
Determining an unbounded potential for an elliptic equation with a power type nonlinearity
Nurminen, Janne (Elsevier, 2023)In this article we focus on inverse problems for a semilinear elliptic equation. We show that a potential q in ��/2+�, �>0, can be determined from the full and partial Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. This extends the results ... -
Inverse problems for elliptic equations with power type nonlinearities
Lassas, Matti; Liimatainen, Tony; Lin, Yi-Hsuan; Salo, Mikko (Elsevier, 2021)We introduce a method for solving Calderón type inverse problems for semilinear equations with power type nonlinearities. The method is based on higher order linearizations, and it allows one to solve inverse problems for ... -
