Implicit multiderivative collocation solvers for linear partial differential equations with discontinuous Galerkin spatial discretizations

In this work, we construct novel discretizations for the unsteady convection-diffusion equation. Our discretization relies on multiderivative time integrators together with a novel discretization that reduces the total number of unknowns for the solver. These type of temporal discretizations come from an umbrella class of methods that include Lax-Wendroff (Taylor) as well as Runge-Kutta methods as special cases. We include two-point collocation methods with multiple time derivatives as well as a sixth-order fully implicit collocation method that only requires a total of three stages. Numerical results for a number of sample linear problems indicate the expected order of accuracy and indicate we can take arbitrarily large time steps.
