1. Selected Topics in Homogenization
Sammanfattning : The main focus of the present thesis is on the homogenization of some selected elliptic and parabolic problems. More precisely, we homogenize: non-periodic linear elliptic problems in two dimensions exhibiting a homothetic scaling property; two types of evolution-multiscale linear parabolic problems, one having two spatial and two temporal microscopic scales where the latter ones are given in terms of a two-parameter family, and one having two spatial and three temporal microscopic scales that are fixed power functions; and, finally, evolution-multiscale monotone parabolic problems with one spatial and an arbitrary number of temporal microscopic scales that are not restricted to be given in terms of power functions.

2. Homogenization of Partial Differential Equations using Multiscale Convergence Methods
Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is the theory of periodic homogenization of partial differential equations and some applicable concepts of convergence. More precisely, we study parabolic problems exhibiting both spatial and temporal microscopic oscillations and a vanishing volumetric heat capacity type of coefficient. LÄS MER
3. On weak and strong convergence of numerical approximations of stochastic partial differential equations
Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with numerical approximation of linear stochastic partial differential equations driven by additive noise. In the first part, we develop a framework for the analysis of weak convergence and within this framework we analyze the stochastic heat equation, the stochastic wave equation, and the linearized stochastic Cahn-Hilliard, or the linearized Cahn-Hilliard-Cook equation.

4. Weak Convergence of First-Rare-Event Times for Semi-Markov Processes
Sammanfattning : I denna avhandling studerar vi nödvändiga och tillräckliga villkor för svag konvergens av första-sällan-händelsetider för semi-Markovska processer.I introduktionen ger vi nödvändiga grundläggande definitioner och beskrivningar av modeller som betraktas i avhandlingen, samt ger några exempel på situationer i vilka metoder av första-sällan-händelsetider kan vara lämpliga att använda.

5. Two Problems on Existence and Approximation Related to the Boltzmann Equation
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, two different types of problems related to the Boltzmann equation of kinetic theory are studied. The first part is devoted to establishing consistency and convergence for discrete-velocity models of the Boltzmann equation. For a new such model, introduced by the author jointly with A. LÄS MER
