Approximated Lax Pairs for the Reduced Order Integration of Nonlinear Evolution Equations
A reduced-order model algorithm, called ALP, is proposed to solve nonlinear
evolution partial differential equations. It is based on approximations of
generalized Lax pairs. Contrary to other reduced-order methods, like Proper
Orthogonal Decomposition, the basis on which the solution is searched for
evolves in time according to a dynamics specific to the problem. It is
therefore well-suited to solving problems with progressive front or wave
propagation. Another difference with other reduced-order methods is that it is
not based on an off-line / on-line strategy. Numerical examples are shown for
the linear advection, KdV and FKPP equations, in one and two dimensions
Numerical algorithms for Schrödinger equation with artificial boundary conditions
We consider a one-dimensional linear Schrödinger problem defined on an infinite domain and approximated by the Crank-Nicolson type finite difference scheme. To solve this problem numerically we restrict the computational domain by introducing the reflective, absorbing or transparent artificial boundary conditions. We investigate the conservativity of the discrete scheme with respect to the mass and energy of the solution. Results of computational experiments are presented and the efficiency of different artificial boundary conditions is discussed
Numerical methods for generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equations
We present and analyze different splitting algorithms for numerical solution of the both classical and generalized nonlinear Schr"odinger equations describing propagation of wave packets with special emphasis on applications to nonlinear fiber-optics. The considered generalizations take into account the higher-order corrections of the linear differential dispersion operator as well as the saturation of nonlinearity and the self-steepening of the field envelope function. For stabilization of the pseudo-spectral splitting schemes for generalized Schr"odinger equations a regularization based on the approximation of the derivatives by the low number of Fourier modes is proposed. To illustrate the theoretically predicted performance of these schemes several numerical experiments have been done
Numerical methods for accurate description of ultrashort pulses in optical fibers
We consider a one-dimensional first-order nonlinear wave equation (the so-called forward Maxwell equation, FME) that applies to a few-cycle optical pulse propagating along a preferred direction in a nonlinear medium, e.g., ultrashort pulses in nonlinear fibers. The model is a good approximation to the standard second-order wave equation under assumption of weak nonlinearity. We compare FME to the commonly accepted generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which quantifies the envelope of a quickly oscillating wave field based on the slowly varying envelope approximation. In our numerical example, we demonstrate that FME, in contrast to the envelope model, reveals new spectral lines when applied to few-cycle pulses. We analyze and compare pseudo-spectral numerical schemes employing symmetric splitting for both models. Finally, we adopt these schemes to a parallel computation and discuss scalability of the parallelization
Reconstructing initial data using observers: error analysis of the semi-discrete and fully discrete approximations
A new iterative algorithm for solving initial data inverse problems from partial observations has been recently proposed in Ramdani et al. (Automatica 46(10), 1616-1625, 2010 ). Based on the concept of observers (also called Luenberger observers), this algorithm covers a large class of abstract evolution PDE's. In this paper, we are concerned with the convergence analysis of this algorithm. More precisely, we provide a complete numerical analysis for semi-discrete (in space) and fully discrete approximations derived using finite elements in space and an implicit Euler method in time. The analysis is carried out for abstract Schrödinger and wave conservative systems with bounded observation (locally distributed)

A Conservative Scheme with Optimal Error Estimates for a Multidimensional Space-Fractional Gross-Pitaevskii Equation
The present work departs from an extended form of the classical multi-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation, which considers fractional derivatives of the Riesz type in space, a generalized potential function and angular momentum rotation. It is well known that the classical system possesses functionals which are preserved throughout time. It is easy to check that the generalized fractional model considered in this work also possesses conserved quantities, whence the development of conservative and efficient numerical schemes is pragmatically justified. Motivated by these facts, we propose a finite-difference method based on weighted-shifted Grünwald differences to approximate the solutions of the generalized Gross-Pitaevskii system. We provide here a discrete extension of the uniform Sobolev inequality to multiple dimensions, and show that the proposed method is capable of preserving discrete forms of the mass and the energy of the model. Moreover, we establish thoroughly the stability and the convergence of the technique, and provide some illustrative simulations to show that the method is capable of preserving the total mass and the total energy of the generalized system. © 2019 Ahmed S.
