In this paper, we derive an a-posteriori error indicator for the Generalized Multiscale Finite Element Method (GMsFEM) framework. This error indicator is further used to develop an adaptive enrichment algorithm for the linear elliptic equation with multiscale high-contrast coefficients. The GMsFEM, which has recently been introduced in [13], allows solving multiscale parameter-dependent problems at a reduced computational cost by constructing a reduced-order representation of the solution on a coarse grid. The main idea of the method consists of (1) the construction of snapshot space,(2) the construction of the offline space, and (3) the construction of the online space (the latter for parameter-dependent problems). In [13], it was shown that the GMsFEM provides a flexible tool to solve multiscale problems with a complex input space by generating appropriate snapshot, offline, and online spaces. In this paper, we

We introduce an irrational factor of order <i>k</i> defined by I k ( n ) = i = 1 l p i i , where I k ( n ) = i = 1 l p i i is the factorization of <i>n</i> and $${\beta_{i} = \left\{\begin{array}{ll}\alpha_i, \quad \quad {\rm if} \quad \alpha_i &lt; k \\ \frac{1}{\alpha_i},\quad \quad {\rm if} \quad \alpha_i \geqq k \end{array}\right.}$$. It turns out that the function I k ( n ) = i = 1 l p i i well approximates the characteristic function of <i>k</i>-free integers. We also derive asymptotic formulas for I k ( n ) = i = 1 l p i i and I k ( n ) = i = 1 l p i i .

We review several recent results concerning two-dimensional systems which exhibit a transport induced by a one-dimensional perturbation of a homogeneous magnetic field. The first concerns the local Iwatsuka model, where a charged particle interacts with a field which is homogeneous outside a finite strip and translationally invariant along it: we present two new sufficient conditions for absolute continuity of the spectrum and show that in most cases the number of open spectral gaps is finite. In the second model the perturbation is a periodic array of point obstacles. In this case the Landau levels remain to be infinitely degenerate eigenvalues, and between them the system has bands of absolutely continuous spectrum.

Graph consists of a set of vertices V={Xj: j I}, a set of finite edges L={Ljn:(Xj, Xn) IL I I} and a set of infinite edges L={Lj: Xj IC} attached to them. We regard it as a configuration space of a quantum system with the Hilbert space
