Given a compact doubling metric measure space X that supports a 2-Poincaré inequality, we construct a Dirichlet form on $$N^{1,2}(X)$$ N 1 , 2 ( X ) that is comparable to the upper gradient energy form on $$N^{1,2}(X)$$ N 1 , 2 ( X ) . Our approach is based on the approximation of X by a family of graphs that is doubling and supports a 2-Poincaré inequality (see [20]). We construct a bilinear form on $$N^{1,2}(X)$$ N 1 , 2 ( X ) using the Dirichlet form on the graph. We show that the $$\Gamma $$ Γ -limit $$\mathcal {E}$$ E of this family of bilinear forms (by taking a subsequence) exists and that $$\mathcal {E}$$ E is a Dirichlet form on X. Properties of $$\mathcal {E}$$ E are established. Moreover, we prove that $$\mathcal {E}$$ E has the property of matching boundary values on a domain $$\Omega \subseteq X$$ Ω ⊆ X . This construction makes it possible to approximate harmonic functions (with respect to the Dirichlet form $$\mathcal {E}$$ E ) on a domain in X with a prescribed Lipschitz boundary data via a numerical scheme dictated by the approximating Dirichlet forms, which are discrete objects.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
