Abstract

Function-space summation-by-parts (FSBP) operators enable conservative and energy-stable numerical methods for hyperbolic conservation laws based on general, non-polynomial approximation spaces. Recent works show that using generalized Gaussian quadrature significantly reduces the number of grid points required compared to existing constructions that have mostly focused on equidistant grids. In this paper, we compare open and closed FSBP operators constructed with generalized Gaussian quadratures and apply them to numerically solve hyperbolic conservation laws. Furthermore, to support open node distributions, we extend the FSBP framework by introducing function-space exact extrapolation operators and operationalize them in numerical schemes for solving hyperbolic conservation laws. Our numerical experiments include the one-dimensional linear advection, non-viscous Burgers, and compressible Euler equations of gas dynamics. We observe that applying FSBP operators in numerical schemes can improve efficiency and accuracy. Notably, we demonstrate these advantages in more challenging time-dependent settings compared to other recent works on Gaussian FSBP operators.

$L^{p}$-convergence of Kantorovich-type Max-Min Neural Network Operators

In this work, we study the Kantorovich variant of max-min neural network operators, in which the operator kernel is defined in terms of sigmoidal functions. Our main aim is to demonstrate the $L^{p}$-convergence of these nonlinear operators for $1\leq p<\infty$, which makes it possible to obtain approximation results for functions that are not necessarily continuous. In addition, we will derive quantitative estimates for the rate of approximation in the $L^{p}$-norm. We will provide some explicit examples, studying the approximation of discontinuous functions with the max-min operator, and varying additionally the underlying sigmoidal function of the kernel. Further, we numerically compare the $L^{p}$-approximation error with the respective error of the Kantorovich variants of other popular neural network operators. As a final application, we show that the Kantorovich variant has advantages compared to the sampling variant of the max-min operator and Kantorovich variant of the max-product operator when it comes to approximate noisy functions as for instance biomedical ECG signals.

Quotient geometry of tensor ring decomposition

Differential geometries derived from tensor decompositions have been extensively studied and provided the foundations for a variety of efficient numerical methods. Despite the practical success of the tensor ring (TR) decomposition, its intrinsic geometry remains less understood, primarily due to the underlying ring structure and the resulting nontrivial gauge invariance. We establish the quotient geometry and immersed-submanifold structure of TR decomposition by imposing full-rank conditions on all unfolding matrices of the core tensors and capturing the gauge invariance. The intrinsic ring structure of TR leads to an analysis that is substantially different from other tensor formats. Additionally, for the uniform TR decomposition, where all core tensors are identical and the manifold structure is known, we derive explicit parameterizations for the vertical and horizontal spaces, which enable Riemannian optimization. Numerical experiments validate the developed geometries via tensor ring completion tasks.

Boundary elements for clamped Kirchhoff--Love plates

We present a Galerkin boundary element method for clamped Kirchhoff--Love plates with piecewise smooth boundary. It is a direct method based on the representation formula and requires the inversion of the single-layer operator, an application of the double-layer operator to the Dirichlet data, and, in the presence of a vertical load, an application of the Dirichlet trace of the Newton potential to that load. We present trace approximation spaces of arbitrary order, required for both the Dirichlet data and the unknown Neumann trace. Our boundary element method is quasi-optimal with respect to the natural trace norm and achieves optimal convergence order under minimal regularity assumptions. We provide explicit representations of all three integral operators and discuss the implementation of the appearing integrals. Numerical experiments for smooth and non-smooth domains confirm predicted convergence rates.
