Fully Automated Adaptive Parameter Selection for 3-D High-order Nyström Boundary Integral Equation Methods

Abstract

We present an adaptive Chebyshev-based Boundary Integral Equation (CBIE) solver for electromagnetic scattering from smooth perfect electric conductor (PEC) objects. The proposed approach eliminates manual parameter tuning by introducing (i) a unified adaptive quadrature strategy for automatic selection of the near-singular interaction distance and (ii) an adaptive computation of all self- and near-singular precomputation integrals to a prescribed accuracy using Gauss-Kronrod (h-adaptive) or Clenshaw-Curtis (p-adaptive) rules and singularity-resolving changes of variables. Both h-adaptive and p-adaptive schemes are explored within this framework, ensuring high-order accuracy and robustness across a broad range of geometries without loss of efficiency. Numerical results for canonical and complex CAD geometries demonstrate that the adaptive solver achieves accuracy and convergence rates comparable to optimally tuned fixed-grid CBIE implementations, while offering automation and scalability to electrically large, geometrically complex problems.

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.
