Abstract

Controlling spurious oscillations is crucial for designing reliable numerical schemes for hyperbolic conservation laws. This paper proposes a novel, robust, and efficient oscillation-eliminating discontinuous Galerkin (OEDG) method on general meshes, motivated by the damping technique in [Lu, Liu, and Shu, SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 59:1299-1324, 2021]. The OEDG method incorporates an OE procedure after each Runge-Kutta stage, devised by alternately evolving conventional semidiscrete DG scheme and a damping equation. A novel damping operator is carefully designed to possess scale-invariant and evolution-invariant properties. We rigorously prove optimal error estimates of the fully discrete OEDG method for linear scalar conservation laws. This might be the first generic fully-discrete error estimates for nonlinear DG schemes with automatic oscillation control mechanism. The OEDG method exhibits many notable advantages. It effectively eliminates spurious oscillations for challenging problems across various scales and wave speeds, without problem-specific parameters. It obviates the need for characteristic decomposition in hyperbolic systems. It retains key properties of conventional DG method, such as conservation, optimal convergence rates, and superconvergence. Moreover, it remains stable under normal CFL condition. The OE procedure is non-intrusive, facilitating integration into existing DG codes as an independent module. Its implementation is easy and efficient, involving only simple multiplications of modal coefficients by scalars. The OEDG approach provides new insights into the damping mechanism for oscillation control. It reveals the role of damping operator as a modal filter and establishes close relations between the damping and spectral viscosity techniques. Extensive numerical results confirm the theoretical analysis and validate the effectiveness and advantages of the OEDG method.

Fully spectral scheme for the linear BGK equation on the whole space

In this article, we design a fully spectral method in both space and velocity for a linear inhomogeneous kinetic equation with mass, momentum and energy conservation. We focus on the linear BGK equation with a confinement potential $Φ$, even if the method could be applied to different collision operators. It is based upon the projection on Hermite polynomials in velocity and orthonormal polynomials with respect to the weight $e^{-$Φ$}$ in space. The potential $Φ$ is assumed to be a polynomial. It is, to the author's knowledge, the first scheme which preserves hypocoercive behavior in addition to the conservation laws. These different properties are illustrated numerically on both quadratic and double well potential.

Inverse inequalities for kernel-based approximation on bounded domains and Riemannian manifolds

This paper establishes inverse inequalities for kernel-based approximation spaces defined on bounded Lipschitz domains in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and compact Riemannian manifolds. While inverse inequalities are well-studied for polynomial spaces, their extension to kernel-based trial spaces poses significant challenges. For bounded Lipschitz domains, we extend prior Bernstein inequalities, which only apply to a limited range of Sobolev orders, to the full range of lower and upper orders, and derive Nikolskii inequalities that bound $L_\infty$ norms by $L_2$ norms. For compact Riemannian manifolds, we focus on restricted kernels, which are defined as the restriction of positive definite kernels from the ambient Euclidean space to the manifold, and prove their counterparts.

Error Estimates for Hyperbolic Scaling Limits of Linear Kinetic Models on Networks

This paper studies linear discrete kinetic models on networks and their asymptotic behavior in the small Knudsen number limit. For coupling conditions at an n-edge junction under a symmetric formulation, we introduce a change of variables that reformulates the system into n independent initial-boundary value problems. The asymptotic expansions are then constructed and rigorously justified by deriving an error estimate based on the energy method.
