Abstract

We propose and analyze an IMEX-SDIRK2 mean-reverting concurrent-correction scalar auxiliary variable (mr-ccSAV) method for the forced two-dimensional periodic Navier--Stokes equations in vorticity form. The viscous term is treated by Alexander's SDIRK2 method and advection explicitly. Each stage requires two elliptic solves with the same shifted Laplacian and the solution of either a cubic or a linear scalar algebraic equation. For initial vorticity in $\dot L^s(Ω)$, $s>2$, a stage solution exists for every positive time step; uniqueness is established separately under an explicit small-step condition. The principal result is a direct, unconditional uniform-in-time enstrophy bound for arbitrary positive time steps. For persistently bounded forcing, this estimate is absorbing: the influence of the initial data decays, and the forcing contribution does not accumulate in time. Under additional regularity, uniformly bounded step sizes, and bounded neighboring step ratios, we also establish uniform-in-time $H^1$ and $H^2$ vorticity bounds without a small-step condition. For smooth solutions, the method converges optimally at second order. Numerical experiments confirm its accuracy, long-time robustness, and effectiveness of a companion embedded time-step selector.

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.
