A quasi-entropy is constructed for tensors averaged by a density function on $SO(3)$ using the log-determinant of a covariance matrix. It serves as a substitution of the entropy for tensors derived from a constrained minimization that…

In this paper, we propose two efficient fully-discrete schemes for Q-tensor flow of liquid crystals by using the first- and second-order stabilized exponential scalar auxiliary variable (sESAV) approach in time and the finite difference…

We present a fully discrete convergent finite difference scheme for the Q-tensor flow of liquid crystals based on the energy-stable semi-discrete scheme by Zhao, Yang, Gong, and Wang (Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Engrg. 2017). We prove…

We consider the Linear-Quadratic-Regulator (LQR) problem in terms of optimizing a real-valued matrix function over the set of feedback gains. Such a setup facilitates examining the implications of a natural initial-state independent…

Recently, Harlander et al.\ [Eur.\ Phys.\ J.\ C {\bf 78}, 944 (2018)] have computed the two-loop order (i.e., NNLO) coefficients in the gradient-flow representation of the energy--momentum tensor (EMT) in vector-like gauge theories. In this…

We propose a new semi-discretization scheme to approximate nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations, by exploiting the gradient flow structures with respect to the 2-Wasserstein metric. We discretize the underlying state by a finite graph and…

We propose a novel algorithm for the approximation of surface-quasi geostrophic (SQG) flows modeled by a nonlinear partial differential equation coupling transport and fractional diffusion phenomena. The time discretization consists of an…

In this work, we study and extend a class of semi-Lagrangian exponential methods, which combine exponential time integration techniques, suitable for integrating stiff linear terms, with a semi-Lagrangian treatment of nonlinear advection…

In this paper we study a gradient flow generated by the Landau-de Gennes free energy that describes nematic liquid crystal configurations in the space of $Q$-tensors. This free energy density functional is composed of three quadratic terms…

A framework of variational principles for stochastic fluid dynamics was presented by Holm (2015), and these stochastic equations were also derived by Cotter et al. (2017). We present a conforming finite element discretisation for the…

We introduce an algorithmic framework based on tensor networks for computing fluid flows around immersed objects in curvilinear coordinates. We show that the tensor network simulations can be carried out solely using highly compressed…

A space-discretization for the elastic flow of inextensible curves is devised and quasi-optimal convergence of the corresponding semi-discrete problem is proved for a suitable discretization of the nonlinear inextensibility constraint.…

We study differentiable strongly quasiconvex functions for providing new properties for algorithmic and monotonicity purposes. Furthemore, we provide insights into the decreasing behaviour of strongly quasiconvex functions, applying this…

We present convergence analysis towards a numerical scheme designed for Q-tensor flows of nematic liquid crystals. This scheme is based on the Invariant Energy Quadratization method, which introduces an auxiliary variable to replace the…

An improved understanding of the divergence-free constraint for the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations leads to the observation that a semi-norm and corresponding equivalence classes of forces are fundamental for their nonlinear…

In this paper, C1-conforming element methods are analyzed for the stream function formulation of a single layer non-stationary quasi-geostrophic equation in the ocean circulation model. In its first part, some new regularity results are…

Studying the dynamics of open quantum systems can enable breakthroughs both in fundamental physics and applications to quantum engineering and quantum computation. Since the density matrix $\rho$, which is the fundamental description for…

In this paper we establish a rigorous gradient flow structure for one-dimensional Kimura equations with respect to some Wasserstein-Shahshahani optimal transport geometry. This is achieved by first conditioning the underlying stochastic…

We study the dynamics of a droplet moving on an inclined rough surface in the absence of inertial and viscous stress effects. In this case, the dynamics of the droplet is a purely geometric motion in terms of the wetting domain and the…

In this paper, we conduct an in-depth investigation of the structural intricacies inherent to the Invariant Energy Quadratization (IEQ) method as applied to gradient flows, and we dissect the mechanisms that enable this method to uphold…
