In this work a simple method to enforce the positivity-preserving property for general high-order conservative schemes is proposed. The method keeps the original scheme unchanged and detects critical numerical fluxes which may lead to…

We re-analyze the quasi-linear self consistent dynamics for the beam-plasma instability, by comparing the theory predictions to numerical simulations of the corresponding Hamiltonian system. While the diffusive features of the asymptotic…

The curvature and the reduced curvature are basic differential invariants of the pair (Hamiltonian system, Lagrange distribution) on the symplectic manifold. It is shown that the negativity of the reduced curvature implies the hyperbolicity…
We derive the precise stability criterion for smooth solitary waves in the b-family of Camassa-Holm equations. The smooth solitary waves exist on the constant background. In the integrable cases b = 2 and b = 3, we show analytically that…

We are concerned with a model of ideal compressible isentropic two-fluid magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Introducing an entropy-like function, we reduce the equations of two-fluid MHD to a symmetric form which looks like the classical MHD…
In this paper, we propose a novel development in the context of entropy stable finite-volume/finite-difference schemes. In the first part, we focus on the construction of high-order entropy conservative fluxes. Already in [LMR2002], the…
We discuss direct and inverse spectral theory for a Sturm-Liouville type problem with a quadratic dependence on the eigenvalue parameter, which arises as the isospectral problem for the conservative Camassa-Holm flow.
A new analysis of basic Couette flow, is based on an Action Principle for compressible fluids, with a Hamiltonian as well as a kinetic potential. An effective criterion for stability recognizes the tensile strength of water. This…
