Title: Hermite Methods for the Scalar Wave Equation

Abstract

Arbitrary order dissipative and conservative Hermite methods for the scalar wave equation are presented here. Both methods use $(m+1)^d$ degrees of freedom per node for the displacement in $d$ dimensions; the dissipative and conservative methods achieve orders of accuracy $(2m-1)$ and $2m$, respectively. Stability and error analyses as well as implementation strategies for accelerators are also given.

Vlasov simulations using velocity-scaled Hermite representations

Journal Article Schumer, J W ; Holloway, J P - Journal of Computational Physics

The efficiency, accuracy, and stability of two different pseudo-spectral methods using scaled Hermite basis and weight functions, applied to the nonlinear Vlasov-Poisson equations in one dimension (1d-1v), are explored and compared. A variable velocity scale U is introduced into the Hermite basis and is shown to yield orders of magnitude reduction in errors, as compared to linear kinetic theory, with no increase in workload. A set of Fourier-Hermite coefficients, representing a periodic Gaussian distribution function, are advanced through time with an O({Delta}t{sup 2})-accurate splitting method. Within this splitting scheme, the advection and acceleration terms of the Vlasov equation resolved separatelymore »« less

Leapfrog Time-Stepping for Hermite Methods

Journal Article Vargas, Arturo ; Hagstrom, Thomas ; Chan, Jesse ; ... - Journal of Scientific Computing

We introduce here Hermite-leapfrog methods for first order linear wave systems. The new Hermite-leapfrog methods pair leapfrog time-stepping with the Hermite methods of Goodrich and co-authors et al. (Math Comput 75(254):595–630, 2006). The new schemes stagger field variables in both time and space and are high-order accurate for equations with smooth solutions and coefficients. We provide a detailed description of the method and demonstrate that the method conserves variable quantities. Higher dimensional versions of the method are constructed via tensor products. Numerical evidence and rigorous analysis in one space dimension establish stability and high-order convergence. Experiments demonstrating efficient implementations onmore »« less

Relativistic wave equations for bound states of two scalar particles from scalar quantum electrodynamics

Journal Article Xiao, L ; Darewych, J W ; Horbatsch, M - Physical Review, A (General Physics); (USA)

Coupled integral equations for bound states of two spin-0 bosons are derived variationally from scalar quantum electrodynamics, using an {ital ansatz} which incorporates the transverse photon degrees of freedom of the electromagnetic field. The equations are decoupled approximately and then solved perturbatively as well as numerically. A perturbative eigenenergy formula for particles of arbitrary masses, including all the corrections of order {alpha}{sup 4}, is obtained. A variational solution of the wave equation is used to determine eigenvalues and eigenfunctions at arbitrary coupling for the 1{ital s} and 2{ital p} states of the equal-mass and {ital m}{sub {ital K}}/{ital m}{sub {pi}}more »« less

Low-dissipation centred schemes for hyperbolic equations in conservative and non-conservative form

Journal Article Toro, E. F. ; Saggiorato, B. ; Tokareva, S. ; ... - Journal of Computational Physics

We propose a one-parameter family of low-dissipation centred numerical schemes for solving hyperbolic equations in conservative or non-conservative form, using finite volume or discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods. The new schemes spring out from the multi-dimensional FORCE method and are determined by a single parameter α ≥ 1. Given an increasing sequence of real numbers 1 ≤ α₁ < α₂ < . . . < α_K, there corresponds a sequence of numerical schemes with stability restriction associated to a decreasing sequence of Courant numbers 1 > c₁ > c₂ > . . . > c_K > 0 and a decreasingmore »« less

Asymmetric Hermite method for the velocity dependence of the Vlasov equation

Journal Article Holloway, J P - Transactions of the American Nuclear Society

The Vlasov-Maxwell equations provide one of the basic kinetic theory descriptions of a plasma; in one dimension and for a single negatively charged species of unit charge and unit mass, and with a neutralizing background of immobile positive charge, where the integrals-{integral}f{alpha} du and - {integral}uf{alpha} du over all velocities u give the charge and current densities. Because of the self-consistent coupling, these equations are nonlinear, and very few exact solutions can be constructed. One challenge in the development of numerical methods for these equations is to produce methods that simultaneously and exactly conserve particles, momentum, and energy in amore »« less
