Implicit–explicit multirate infinitesimal stage-restart methods
Implicit–Explicit (IMEX) methods are flexible numerical time integration methods which solve an initial-value problem (IVP) that is split into stiff and nonstiff processes with the goal of lower computational costs than a purely implicit or explicit approach. A complementary form of flexible IVP solvers are multirate infinitesimal methods for problems split into fast- and slow-changing dynamics, that solve a multirate IVP by evolving a sequence of “fast” IVPs using any suitably accurate algorithm. This article introduces a new class of high-order implicit–explicit multirate methods that are designed for multirate IVPs in which the slow-changing dynamics are further split in an IMEX fashion. This new class, which we call implicit–explicit multirate infinitesimal stage-restart (IMEX-MRI-SR), both improves upon the previous implicit–explicit multirate infinitesimal generalized-structure additive Runge Kutta (IMEX-MRI-GARK) methods by allowing for far easier creation of new embedded methods, and extends multirate exponential Runge Kutta (MERK) methods by allowing the fast-changing dynamics to be nonlinear and the methods to be implicit. We leverage GARK theory to derive conditions for orders of accuracy up to four, and we provide second- and third-order accurate example methods, which are the first known embedded MRI methods with IMEX structure. We then perform numerical simulations demonstrating convergence rates and computational performance in both fixed-step and adaptive-step settings.
