Adaptive mesh reconstruction for hyperbolic conservation laws with total variation bound
2012
We consider 3-point numerical schemes, that resolve scalar conservation laws, that are oscillatory either to their dispersive or anti-diffusive nature. The spatial discretization is performed over non-uniform adaptively redefined meshes. We provide a model for studying the evolution of the extremes of the oscillations. We prove that proper mesh reconstruction is able to control the oscillations; we provide bounds for the Total Variation (TV) of the numerical solution. We, moreover, prove under more strict assumptions that the increase of the TV, due to the oscillatory behavior of the numerical schemes, decreases with time; hence proving that the overall scheme is TV Increase-Decreasing (TVI…
Fine-Mesh Numerical Simulations for 2D Riemann Problems with a Multilevel Scheme
2001
The numerical simulation of physical problems modeled by systems of conservation laws can be difficult due to the occurrence of discontinuities and other non-smooth features in the solution.
Riemann solvers in relativistic astrophysics
1999
AbstractOur contribution reviews High Resolution Shock Capturing methods (HRSC) in the field of relativistic hydrodynamics with special emphasis on Riemann solvers. HRSC techniques achieve highly accurate numerical approximations (formally second order or better) in smooth regions of the flow, and capture the motion of unresolved steep gradients without creating spurious oscillations. One objective of our contribution is to show how these techniques have been extended to relativistic hydrodynamics, making it possible to explore some challenging astrophysical scenarios. We will review recent literature concerning the main properties of different special relativistic Riemann solvers, and disc…
Riemann’s Result and Consequences for Physics and Philosophy
2020
Riemann commented on his main result as follows: “The common character of those manifolds whose curvature is constant may also be expressed thus: that figures may be viewed in them without stretching. For clearly figures could not be arbitrarily shifted and turned around in them if the curvature at each point were not the same in all directions at one point as at another, and consequently the same constructions can be made from it; whence it follows that in aggregates with constant curvature, figures may have any arbitrary position given them. The measure-relations of these manifolds depend only on the value of the curvature, and in relation to the analytic expression it may be remarked tha…
Incomplete Riemann Solvers Based on Functional Approximations to the Absolute Value Function
2021
We give an overview on the work developed in recent years about certain classes of incomplete Riemann solvers for hyperbolic systems. These solvers are based on polynomial or rational approximations to |x|, and they do not require the knowledge of the complete eigenstructure of the system, but only a bound on the maximum wave speed. Our solvers can be readily applied to nonconservative hyperbolic systems, by following the theory of path-conservative schemes. In particular, this allows for an automatic treatment of source or coupling terms in systems of balance laws. The properties of our schemes have been tested with some challenging numerical experiments involving systems such as the Euler…
Analysis of eta production using a generalized Lee model
1998
We have investigated the processes N($\pi$, $\pi$)N and N($\pi$, $\eta$)N close to eta threshold using a simple, nonrelativistic Lee model which has the advantage of being analytically solvable. It is then possible to study the Riemann sheets of the S-matrix and the behavior of its resonance poles especially close to threshold. A theoretical simulation of the experimental cusp effect at eta threshold leads to a characteristic distribution of poles on the Riemann sheets. We find a pole located in the $4^{th}$ Riemann sheet that up to now has not been discussed. It belongs to the cusp peak at eta threshold. In addition we obtain the surprising result using the Lee model that the resonance $S_…
A topological obstruction to the geodesibility of a foliation of odd dimension
1981
Let M be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n, and let ℱ be a smooth foliation on M. A topological obstruction is obtained, similar to results of R. Bott and J. Pasternack, to the existence of a metric on M for which ℱ is totally geodesic. In this case, necessarily that portion of the Pontryagin algebra of the subbundle ℱ must vanish in degree n if ℱ is odd-dimensional. Using the same methods simple proofs of the theorems of Bott and Pasternack are given.
A Weitzenböck formula for the damped Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operator in adapted differential geometry
2001
Abstract On the Riemannian path space we consider the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operator associated to the Dirichlet form E (f,g)=E〈 ∇ f, ∇ g〉 H , where ∇ is the damped gradient and 〈·,·〉 H the scalar product of the Cameron–Martin space H . We prove a corresponding Weitzenbock formula restricted to adapted vector fileds: the Ricci-tensor is shown to be equal to the identity.
An integral for a banach valued function
2009
Abstract Using partitions of the unity ((PU)-partition), a new definition of an integral is given for a function f : [a, b] → X, where X is a Banach space, and it is proved that this integral is equivalent to the Bochner integral.
Generalized Lebesgue points for Sobolev functions
2017
In this article, we show that a function $f\in M^{s,p}(X),$ $0<s\leq 1,$ $0<p<1,$ where $X$ is a doubling metric measure space, has generalized Lebesgue points outside a set of $\mathcal{H}^h$-Hausdorff measure zero for a suitable gauge function $h.$
