UNQW02 - Surrogate models for UQ in complex systems

We address the numerical analysis of domain uncertainty in UQ for partial differential and integral equations. For small amplitude shape variation, a first order, kth moment perturbation analysis and sparse tensor discretization produces approximate k-point correlations at near optimal order: work and memory scale log-linearly w.r. to N, the number of degrees of freedom for approximating one instance of the nominal (mean-field) problem [1,3]. For large domain variations, the notion of shape holomorphy of the solution is introduced. It implies (the `usual') sparsity and dimension-independent convergence rates of gpc approximations (e.g., anisotropic stochastic collocation, least squares, CS, ...) of parametric domain-to-solution maps in forward UQ. This property holds for a broad class of smooth elliptic and parabolic boundary value problems. Shape holomorphy also implies sparsity of gpc expansions of certain posteriors in Bayesian inverse UQ [7], [-> WS4 ]. We discuss consequences of gpc sparsity on some surrogate forward models, to be used e.g. in optimization under domain uncertainty [8,9]. We also report on dimension independent convergence rates of Smolyak and higher order Quasi-Monte Carlo integration [5,6,7]. Examples include the usual (anisotropic) diffusion problems, Navier-Stokes [2] and time harmonic Maxwell PDEs [4], and forward UQ for fractional PDEs.
