Admissible Discrete Linear Propagators for High-Order Time Splittings of Rotational Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations with Arbitrary Three-Dimensional Rotation

Abstract

We study robust high-order time splittings for nonlinear Schrödinger equations whose linear part is defined by the Laplacian and an arbitrary three-dimensional rotation operator. After Fourier pseudospectral discretization, a continuous exact factorization of the linear flow need not yield a method self-adjoint fixed-grid propagator. For the original stage-wise explicit exact integrator, we identify a quadratic even term in the local logarithm and show that its visibility is state-dependent, so the observed temporal order of accuracy can depend on the initial data. We then formulate fixed-grid admissibility for discrete linear propagators and construct two admissible propagators for arbitrary three-dimensional rotation: a symmetrized explicit exact integrator and a palindromic generalized shear propagator. Both are unitary, first-order consistent, method self-adjoint, and have odd local logarithms. Numerical experiments verify the predicted defect mechanism and demonstrate recovery of the designed second-, fourth-, and sixth-order behavior with the admissible propagators.

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.
