UNQW04 - UQ for inverse problems in complex systems

We present the numerical analysis of Quasi Monte-Carlo methods for high-dimensional integration applied to forward and inverse uncertainty quantification for elliptic and parabolic PDEs. Emphasis will be placed on the role of parametric holomorphy of data-to-solution maps. We present corresponding results on deterministic quadratures in Bayesian Inversion of parametric PDEs, and the related bound on posterior sparsity and (dimension-independent) QMC convergence rates. Particular attention will be placed on Higher-Order QMC , and on the interplay between the structure of the representation system of the distributed uncertain input data (KL, splines, wavelets,...) and the structure of QMC weights. We also review stable and efficient generation of interlaced polynomial lattice rules, and the numerical analysis of multilevel QMC Finite Element PDE discretizations with applications to forward and inverse computational uncertainty quantification. QMC convergence rates will be compared with those afforded by Smolyak quadrature.
