Abstract

While exact and approximate Riemann solvers are widely used, they exhibit two fundamental limitations: 1) Fail to represent continuous entropy transport processes, resulting in thermodynamic incompatibility that limits their applicability to compressible flows. 2) Consider only the effects of normal components at interfaces while neglecting the effects of tangential flux and source term, making them unsuitable for multidimensional problems and cases involving source terms. These limitations persist in Riemann problem-based ghost fluid methods. To address these challenges, we developed a novel spatiotemporal coupling high-resolution ghost fluid method featuring two key advancements: 1) Integration of nonlinear geometrical optics to properly account for thermodynamic entropy evolution. 2) Implementation of the Lax-Wendroff/Cauchy-Kowalevski approach to incorporate tangential fluxes and source term effects. These enhancements have been systematically applied to Riemann problem-based ghost fluid methods. Comprehensive numerical experiments demonstrate significant improvements in simulation accuracy and robustness compared to conventional approaches.

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.
