In mathematics, in the area of numerical analysis, the Galerkin method is a means for converting a differential equation to a problem of linear algebra or a high dimensional linear system of equations, which may then be projected to a lower dimensional system. It relies on the weak formulation of an equation and works in principle by restricting the possible solutions as well as the test functions to a smaller space than the original one (see below for more details). These small systems are easier to solve than the original problem, but their solution is only an approximation to the original solution.
The approach was invented by the Russian mathematician Boris Galerkin.
Since the beauty of Galerkin methods lies in the very abstract way of studying them, we will first give their abstract derivation. In the end, we will give examples for their use.
Examples for Galerkin methods are:
- The finite element method
- Boundary element method for solving integral equations
- Krylov subspace methods

Let us introduce Galerkin's method with an abstract problem posed as a weak formulation on a Hilbert space, V, namely, find such that for all
- a(u,v) = f(v)
holds. Here, is a bilinear form (the exact requirements on
will be specified later) and f is a bounded linear operator on V.

Choose a subspace , which is of much smaller dimension (actually, we will assume that the index n denotes its dimension) and solve the projected problem: find
such that for all
- a(un,vn) = f(vn).
We will call this the Galerkin equation. Notice that the equation has remained unchanged and only the spaces have changed.

This is the key property making the mathematical analysis of Galerkin methods very sharp. Since , we can use vn as a test vector in the original equation. Subtracting the two, we get the Galerkin orthogonality relation for the error
- a(en,vn) = a(u,vn) − a(un,vn) = f(vn) − f(vn) = 0.
Here, en = u − un is the error between the solution of the original problem u and the Galerkin equation uh, respectively.

Since the aim of Galerkin's method is the production of a linear system of equations, we build its matrix form, which can be used to compute the solution by a computer program.
Let be a basis for Vn. Then, it is sufficient to use these in turn for testing the Galerkin equation, i.e.: find
such that
We expand un in respect to this basis, and insert it into the equation above, to obtain
This previous equation is actually a linear system of equations Au = f, where

Due to the definition of the matrix entries, the matrix of the Galerkin equation is symmetric if and only if the bilinear form is symmetric.

Here, we will restrict ourselves to symmetric bilinear forms, that is
- a(u,v) = a(v,u).
While this is not really a restriction of Galerkin methods, the application of the standard theory becomes much simpler. Furthermore, a Petrov-Galerkin method may be required in the nonsymmetric case.
The analysis of these methods proceeds in two steps. First, we will show that the Galerkin equation is a well-posed problem in the sense of Hadamard and therefore admits a unique solution. In the second step, we study the quality of approximation of the Galerkin solution un.
The analysis will mostly rest on two properties of the bilinear form, namely
- Boundedness: for all
holds
for some constant C > 0
- Ellipticity: for all
holds
for some constant c > 0
By the Lax-Milgram theorem (see weak formulation), these two conditions imply well-posedness of the original problem in weak formulation. All norms in the following sections will be norms for which the above inequalities hold (these norms are often called energy norm).
[Өөрчлөх] Галёркины тэгшитгэлийн хэвийн тавилт
Since , boundedness and ellipticity of the bilinear form apply to Vn. Therefore, the well-posedness of the Galerkin problem is actually inherited from the well-posedness of the original problem.
[Өөрчлөх] Бараг хамгийн сайн ойролцоолол (Сеагийн лемм)
The error en = u − un between the original and the Galerkin solution admits the estimate
This means, that up to the constant C / c, the Galerkin solution un is as close to the original solution u as any other vector in Vh. In particular, it will be sufficient to study approximation by spaces Vn, completely forgetting about the equation being solved.

Since the proof is very simple and the basic principle behind all Galerkin methods, we include it here: by ellipticity and boundedness of the bilinear form (inequalities) and Galerkin orthogonality (equals sign in the middle), we have for arbitrary :
Dividing by and taking the infimum over all possible vh yields the lemma.
