Convergence of numerical methods and parameter dependence of min-plus eigenvalue problems, Frenkel-Kontorova models and homogenization of Hamilton-Jacobi equations

Nicolas Bacaër (2001)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Using the min-plus version of the spectral radius formula, one proves: 1) that the unique eigenvalue of a min-plus eigenvalue problem depends continuously on parameters involved in the kernel defining the problem; 2) that the numerical method introduced by Chou and Griffiths to compute this eigenvalue converges. A toolbox recently developed at I.n.r.i.a. helps to illustrate these results. Frenkel-Kontorova models serve as example. The analogy with homogenization of Hamilton-Jacobi equations is emphasized....

Defect correction and a posteriori error estimation of Petrov-Galerkin methods for nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equations

Shu Hua Zhang, Tao Lin, Yan Ping Lin, Ming Rao (2000)

Applications of Mathematics

We present two defect correction schemes to accelerate the Petrov-Galerkin finite element methods [19] for nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equations. Using asymptotic expansions of the errors, we show that the defect correction schemes can yield higher order approximations to either the exact solution or its derivative. One of these schemes even does not impose any extra regularity requirement on the exact solution. As by-products, all of these higher order numerical methods can also be...

EasyMSG : tools and techniques for an adaptive overlapping in SPMD programming

Pascal Havé (2002)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

During the development of a parallel solver for Maxwell equations by integral formulations and Fast Multipole Method (FMM), we needed to optimize a critical part including a lot of communications and computations. Generally, many parallel programs need to communicate, but choosing explicitly the way and the instant may decrease the efficiency of the overall program. So, the overlapping of computations and communications may be a way to reduce this drawback. We will see a implementation of this techniques...
