Multiscale problems are computationally costly to solve by direct simulation because the smallest scales must be represented over a domain determined by the largest scales of the problem. We have developed and analyzed new numerical methods…
We derive a general upper bound on the spreading rate of wavepackets in the framework of Schr\"odinger time evolution. Our result consists of showing that a portion of the wavepacket cannot escape outside a ball whose size grows dynamically…

We demonstrate that the Vlasov equation describing collisionless self-gravitating matter may be solved with the so-called Schr\"odinger method (ScM). With the ScM, one solves the Schr\"odinger-Poisson system of equations for a complex wave…
