Smoothness estimation strategy based on the decay of Legendre expansion coefficients.
In one dimension, the finite element solution on cell \(K\) with polynomial degree \(p\) can be written as
\begin{eqnarray*} u_h(x) &=& \sum_j u_j \varphi_j (x) \\ u_{h, k}(x) &=& \sum_{k=0}^{p} a_k \widetilde P_k (x), \quad a_k = \sum_j {\cal L}_{k,j} u_j \end{eqnarray*}
where \(u_j\) are degrees of freedom and \(\varphi_j\) are the corresponding shape functions. \(\{\widetilde P_k(x)\}\) are Legendre polynomials on cell \(K\). \(a_k\) and \({\cal L}_{k,j}\) are coefficients and transformation matrices from the Legendre expansion of each shape function. For practical reasons, we will perform the calculation of these matrices and coefficients only on the reference cell \(\hat K\). We only have to calculate the transformation matrices once this way. However, results are only applicable if the mapping from the reference cell to the actual cell is affine. We use the class FESeries::Legendre to determine all coefficients \(a_k\).
A function is analytic, i.e., representable by a power series, if and only if their Legendre expansion coefficients decay as (see [77])
\[ |a_k| \sim c \, \exp(-\sigma k) \]
We determine their decay rate \(\sigma\) by performing the linear regression fit of
\[ \ln |a_k| \sim C - \sigma k \]
for \(k=0,\ldots,p\), with \(p\) the polynomial degree of the finite element. The rate of the decay \(\sigma\) can be used to estimate the smoothness. For example, one strategy to implement hp-refinement criteria is to perform p-refinement if \(\sigma>1\) (see [150]).

In this variant of the estimation strategy for higher dimensions, we will consider all mode vectors \(\bf k\) describing Legendre polynomials \(\widetilde P_{\bf k}\) and perform one least-squares fit over all coefficients at once. If there are multiple coefficients corresponding to the same absolute value of modes \(\|{\bf k}\|_1\), we take the maximum among those. Thus, the least-squares fit is performed on
\begin{eqnarray*} \widetilde P_{\bf k}({\bf x}) &=& \widetilde P_{k_1} (x_1) \ldots \widetilde P_{k_d} (x_d) \\ \ln \left( \max\limits_{\|{\bf k}\|_1} |a_{\bf k}| \right) &\sim& C - \sigma \|{\bf k}\|_1 \end{eqnarray*}
for \({\bf k}=(k_1,\ldots,k_d)\) and \(k_i=0,\ldots,p\), with \(p\) the polynomial degree of the finite element.

In this variant of the estimation strategy for higher dimensions, we only consider modes in each coordinate direction, i.e., only mode vectors \(\bf k\) with one nonzero entry. We perform the least-squares fit in each coordinate direction separately and take the lowest decay rate \(\sigma\) among them.

FESeries::Legendre< dim, spacedim > SmoothnessEstimator::Legendre::default_fe_series | ( | const hp::FECollection< dim, spacedim > & | fe_collection, |
const unsigned int | component = numbers::invalid_unsigned_int ) |
Returns a FESeries::Legendre object for Legendre series expansions with the default configuration for smoothness estimation purposes.
For each finite element of the provided fe_collection
, we use as many modes as its polynomial degree plus two. This includes the first Legendre polynomial which is just a constant. Further for each element, we use a Gaussian quadrature designed to yield exact results for the highest order Legendre polynomial used.
As the Legendre expansion can only be performed on scalar fields, this class does not operate on vector-valued finite elements and will therefore throw an assertion. However, each component of a finite element field can be treated as a scalar field, respectively, on which Legendre expansions are again possible. For this purpose, the optional parameter component
defines which component of each FiniteElement will be used. The default value of component
only applies to scalar FEs, in which case it indicates that the sole component is to be decomposed. For vector-valued FEs, a non-default value must be explicitly provided.
