Yang-Baxter Equations, Computational Methods and Applications
Computational methods are an important tool for solving the Yang-Baxter
equations(in small dimensions), for classifying (unifying) structures, and for
solving related problems. This paper is an account of some of the latest
developments on the Yang-Baxter equation, its set-theoretical version, and its
applications. We construct new set-theoretical solutions for the Yang-Baxter
equation. Unification theories and other results are proposed or proved.Comment: 12 page
High order direct Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian schemes on moving Voronoi meshes with topology changes
We present a new family of very high order accurate direct
Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) Finite Volume (FV) and Discontinuous
Galerkin (DG) schemes for the solution of nonlinear hyperbolic PDE systems on
moving 2D Voronoi meshes that are regenerated at each time step and which
explicitly allow topology changes in time.
The Voronoi tessellations are obtained from a set of generator points that
move with the local fluid velocity. We employ an AREPO-type approach, which
rapidly rebuilds a new high quality mesh rearranging the element shapes and
neighbors in order to guarantee a robust mesh evolution even for vortex flows
and very long simulation times. The old and new Voronoi elements associated to
the same generator are connected to construct closed space--time control
volumes, whose bottom and top faces may be polygons with a different number of
sides. We also incorporate degenerate space--time sliver elements, needed to
fill the space--time holes that arise because of topology changes. The final
ALE FV-DG scheme is obtained by a redesign of the fully discrete direct ALE
schemes of Boscheri and Dumbser, extended here to moving Voronoi meshes and
space--time sliver elements. Our new numerical scheme is based on the
integration over arbitrary shaped closed space--time control volumes combined
with a fully-discrete space--time conservation formulation of the governing PDE
system. In this way the discrete solution is conservative and satisfies the GCL
by construction.
Numerical convergence studies as well as a large set of benchmarks for
hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) demonstrate the accuracy and
robustness of the proposed method. Our numerical results clearly show that the
new combination of very high order schemes with regenerated meshes with
topology changes lead to substantial improvements compared to direct ALE
methods on conforming meshes
