Abstract. In this paper we define deviation εQ (f N) of piecewise-linear almost-solution f N of the minimal surface equation Q[f(x)] = 0 and we get a general formula to calculate it. Let be tetrahedrons which have vertex Pi. We denote sides leaving from vertex Pi of the tetrahedron , j = 1, 2, ..., k(i), and let be the side of tetrahedron opposite to vertex Pi. We set by the external normal vectors of the sides relatively of . As f N is linear function in then ∇f N = ≡ const. Then the following equality holds
where is exterior side relatively Pi. On the basis of this concept it obtained approximation equation εQ(fN) = 0 or μijuij=(μij,5 + μij,6)ui+1j + (μij,2 + μij,3)ui-1j + (μij,1 + μij,2)uij+1 + (μij,4 + μij,5)uij-1,
and proved that the deviation εQ(uN) converges to the integral of the modulus of the mean curvature of the graph of C2-smooth function u, that is
Thus, the obtained system of nonlinear equations aproximate the minimal surface
equation.
Key words: piecewise-linear functions, almost-solution, minimal surface equation, approximation equation, deviation of piecewise-linear almost-solution.
