An equilibrated flux a posteriori error estimator for defeaturing problems

Annalisa Buffa, Rafael Vazquez Hernandez, Ondine Gabrielle Chanon

An a posteriori error estimator based on an equilibrated flux reconstruction is proposed for defeaturing problems in the context of finite element discretizations. Defeaturing consists in the simplification of a geometry by removing features that are consi ...

An Efficient Sampling Algorithm for Non-smooth Composite Potentials

Nicolas Henri Bernard Flammarion

We consider the problem of sampling from a density of the form p(x) ? exp(-f (x) - g(x)), where f : Rd-+ R is a smooth function and g : R-d-+ R is a convex and Lipschitz function. We propose a new algorithm based on the Metropolis-Hastings framework. Under ...

Time-reversible and norm-conserving high-order integrators for the nonlinear time-dependent Schrödinger equation: Application to local control theory

Jiri Vanicek, Julien Roulet

The explicit split-operator algorithm has been extensively used for solving not only linear but also nonlinear time-dependent Schrödinger equations. When applied to the nonlinear Gross–Pitaevskii equation, the method remains time-reversible, norm-conservin ...

An arbitrary-order Cell Method with block-diagonal mass-matrices for the time-dependent 2D Maxwell equations

Bernard Kapidani

We introduce a new numerical method for the time-dependent Maxwell equations on unstructured meshes in two space dimensions. This relies on the introduction of a new mesh, which is the barycentric-dual cellular complex of the starting simplicial mesh, and ...

Fully-Asynchronous Fully-Implicit Variable-Order Variable-Timestep Simulation of Neural Networks

Felix Schürmann, Bruno Ricardo Da Cunha Magalhães

State-of-the-art simulations of detailed neurons follow the Bulk Synchronous Parallel execution model. Execution is divided in equidistant communication intervals, with parallel neurons interpolation and collective communication guiding synchronization. Su ...

Support and approximation properties of Hermite splines

Michaël Unser, Julien René Fageot, Shayan Aziznejad, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann

In this paper, we formally investigate two mathematical aspects of Hermite splines that are relevant to practical applications. We first demonstrate that Hermite splines are maximally localized, in the sense that the size of their support is minimal among ...

Efficient geometric integrators for nonadiabatic quantum dynamics. I. The adiabatic representation

Jiri Vanicek, Seonghoon Choi

Geometric integrators of the Schrödinger equation conserve exactly many invariants of the exact solution. Among these integrators, the split-operator algorithm is explicit and easy to implement but, unfortunately, is restricted to systems whose Hamiltonian ...

Efficient Greedy Coordinate Descent for Composite Problems

Martin Jaggi, Sebastian Urban Stich, Sai Praneeth Reddy Karimireddy, Anastasiia Koloskova

Coordinate descent with random coordinate selection is the current state of the art for many large scale optimization problems. However, greedy selection of the steepest coordinate on smooth problems can yield convergence rates independent of the dimension ...

INTERNODES: an accurate interpolation-based method for coupling the Galerkin solutions of PDEs on subdomains featuring non-conforming interfaces

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Davide Forti

We are interested in the approximation of partial differential equations on domains decomposed into two (or several) subdomains featuring non-conforming interfaces. The non-conformity may be due to different meshes and/or different polynomial degrees used ...

Accurate, Stable and Efficient Modal Calculations of Photoelectrically Useful Absorption in Lamellar Metallic and Semiconductor Diffraction Gratings

David Isaak Gablinger

Solar energy has seen tremendous advances in the past years. For thin film photovoltaics, which use less of the expensive semiconductor materials, insufficient light absorption can be a limiting factor. It is hoped that by using diffractive optics to impro ...

Reconstruction of Images from Gabor Graphs with Applications in Facial Image Processing

Graphs labeled with complex-valued Gabor jets are one of the important data formats for face recognition and the classification of facial images into medically relevant classes like genetic syndromes. We here present an interpolation rule and an iterative ...

A Rescaled Localized Radial Basis Function Interpolation On Non-Cartesian And Nonconforming Grids

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Davide Forti

In this paper we propose a rescaled localized radial basis function (RL-RBF) interpolation method, based on the use of compactly supported radial basis functions. Starting from the classical RBF interpolation technique, we introduce a rescaling that allows ...
