Enforce the Dirichlet boundary condition by volume constraint in point integral method

Poisson equation on point cloud with Dirichlet boundary condition plays important role in many problems. In this paper, we use the volume constraint proposed by Du et al to handle the Dirichlet boundary condition in the point integral method for Poisson equation on point cloud. We prove that the solution given by volume constraint converges to the true solution as the point cloud converges to the underlying smooth manifold.
