Using analytical and numerical Evans-function techniques, we examine the spectral stability of strong-detonation-wave solutions of Majda's scalar model for a reacting gas mixture with an Arrhenius-type ignition function. We introduce an…
The Hilbert-Chapman-Enskog expansion of the kinetic equations in mean flight times is believed to be asymptotic rather than convergent. It is therefore inadvisable to use lower order results to simplify the current approximation as is done…
In this paper, we complement recent results of Bronski and Johnson and of Johnson and Zumbrun concerning the modulational stability of spatially periodic traveling wave solutions of the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation. In this…
The Evans function is a powerful tool for the stability analysis of viscous shock profiles; zeros of this function carry stability information. In the one-dimensional case, it is typical to compute the Evans function using Goodman's…
The nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation with a linear periodic potential and a nonlinearity coefficient $\Gamma$ with a discontinuity supports stationary localized solitary waves with frequencies inside spectral gaps, so called surface gap…
In Evans function computations of the spectra of asymptotically constant-coefficient linear operators, a basic issue is the efficient and numerically stable computation of subspaces evolving according to the associated eigenvalue ODE. For…
We examine the spectral stability of travelling waves of the haptotaxis model studied in Harley et al (2014a). In the process we apply Li\'enard coordinates to the linearised stability problem and use a Riccati-transform/Grassmanian…
It is well known that for gradient systems in Euclidean space or on a Riemannian manifold, the energy decreases monotonically along solutions. In this letter we derive and analyse functionally fitted energy-diminishing methods to preserve…
We carry out a systematic analytical and numerical study of spectral stability of discontinuous roll wave solutions of the inviscid Saint Venant equations, based on a periodic Evans-Lopatinski determinant analogous to the periodic Evans…
We study the problem of numerical differentiation of functions from weighted Wiener classes. We construct and analyze a truncation Legendre method to recover arbitrary order derivatives. The main focus is on obtaining error estimates in…
As second-order methods, Gauss--Newton-type methods can be more effective than first-order methods for the solution of nonsmooth optimization problems with expensive-to-evaluate smooth components. Such methods, however, often do not…
This paper presents an Euler--Lagrange system for a continuous-time model of the accelerated gradient methods in smooth convex optimization and proposes an associated Lyapunov-function-based convergence analysis framework. Recently,…
We introduce an arbitrary order, stabilized finite element method for solving a unique continuation problem subject to the time-harmonic elastic wave equation with variable coefficients. Based on conditional stability estimates we prove…
Here we develop an option pricing method based on Legendre series expansion of the density function. The key insight, relying on the close relation of the characteristic function with the series coefficients, allows to recover the density…
This work presents a technique for statistically modeling errors introduced by reduced-order models. The method employs Gaussian-process regression to construct a mapping from a small number of computationally inexpensive `error indicators'…
Using the relation established by Johnson--Zumbrun between Hill's method of aproximating spectra of periodic-coefficient ordinary differential operators and a generalized periodic Evans function given by the $2$-modified characteristic…
We present a new numerical method for computing the pure-point spectrum associated with the linear stability of coherent structures. In the context of the Evans function shooting and matching approach, all the relevant information is…
Current spectral simulations of Einstein's equations require writing the equations in first-order form, potentially introducing instabilities and inefficiencies. We present a new penalty method for pseudo-spectral evolutions of second order…
The numerical evaluation of statistics plays a crucial role in statistical physics and its applied fields. It is possible to evaluate the statistics for a stochastic differential equation with Gaussian white noise via the corresponding…
We study the stability/instability of the subsonic travelling waves of the Nonlinear Schr\"odinger Equation in dimension one. Our aim is to propose several methods for showing instability (use of the Grillakis-Shatah-Strauss theory, proof…
