Many natural processes, such as chemical reactions and wave dynamics, are modeled as production-destruction (PD) systems that obey positivity and linear conservation laws. Classical time integrators do not guarantee positivity and can…

In this note, we connect two different topics from linear algebra and numerical analysis: hypocoercivity of semi-dissipative matrices and strong stability for explicit Runge--Kutta schemes. Linear autonomous ODE systems with a non-coercive…
