We show for a variety of classes of conservative PDEs that discrete gradient methods designed to have a conserved quantity (here called energy) also have a time-discrete conservation law. The discrete conservation law has the same conserved…

These are notes that I compiled while studying the equations of long-range groundwater flow for my first paper. By "long-range," I mean horizontal distances that are significantly greater than the vertical thickness of the aquifer, in…

The central limit theorem suggests Gaussian convolution as a generic blur model for images. Since Gaussian convolution is equivalent to homogeneous diffusion filtering, one way to deblur such images is to diffuse them backwards in time.…

The skew mean curvature flow is an evolution equation for $d$ dimensional ma\-nifolds embedded in $\mathbb{R}^{d+2}$ (or more generally, in a Riemannian manifold). It can be viewed as a Schr\"odinger analogue of the mean curvature flow, or…
