    Explicit representations of biorthogonal polynomials

    Full text link
    Given a parametrised weight function ω(x,μ)\omega(x,\mu) such that the quotients of its consecutive moments are M\"obius maps, it is possible to express the underlying biorthogonal polynomials in a closed form \cite{IN2}. In the present paper we address ourselves to two related issues. Firstly, we demonstrate that, subject to additional assumptions, every such ω\omega obeys (in xx) a linear differential equation whose solution is a generalized hypergeometric function. Secondly, using a generalization of standard divided differences, we present a new explicit representation of the underlying orthogonal polynomials

    Simulation of MEMRISTORS in the presence of a high-frequency forcing function

    Get PDF
    This reported work is concerned with the simulation of MEMRISTORS when they are subject to high-frequency forcing functions. A novel asymptotic-numeric simulation method is applied. For systems involving high-frequency signals or forcing functions, the superiority of the proposed method in terms of accuracy and efficiency when compared to standard simulation techniques shall be illustrated. Relevant dynamical properties in relation to the method shall also be considered

    Asymptotic solvers for second-order differential equation systems with multiple frequencies

    In this paper, an asymptotic expansion is constructed to solve second-order dierential equation systems with highly oscillatory forcing terms involving multiple frequencies. An asymptotic expansion is derived in inverse of powers of the oscillatory parameter and its truncation results in a very eective method of dicretizing the dierential equation system in question. Numerical experiments illustrate the eectiveness of the asymptotic method in contrast to the standard Runge-Kutta method

    Efficient computation of delay differential equations with highly oscillatory terms.

    This paper is concerned with the asymptotic expansion and numerical solution of systems of linear delay differential equations with highly oscillatory forcing terms. The computation of such problems using standard numerical methods is exceedingly slow and inefficient, indeed standard software is practically useless for this purpose. We propose an alternative, consisting of an asymptotic expansion of the solution, where each term can be derived either by recursion or by solving a non-oscillatory problem. This leads to methods which, counter-intuitively to those developed according to standard numerical reasoning, exhibit improved performance with growing frequency of oscillation

    Efficient computation of high index Sturm-Liouville eigenvalues for problems in physics

    Full text link
    Finding the eigenvalues of a Sturm-Liouville problem can be a computationally challenging task, especially when a large set of eigenvalues is computed, or just when particularly large eigenvalues are sought. This is a consequence of the highly oscillatory behaviour of the solutions corresponding to high eigenvalues, which forces a naive integrator to take increasingly smaller steps. We will discuss some techniques that yield uniform approximation over the whole eigenvalue spectrum and can take large steps even for high eigenvalues. In particular, we will focus on methods based on coefficient approximation which replace the coefficient functions of the Sturm-Liouville problem by simpler approximations and then solve the approximating problem. The use of (modified) Magnus or Neumann integrators allows to extend the coefficient approximation idea to higher order methods

    On the singular values and eigenvalues of the Fox–Li and related operators

    Get PDF
    The Fox–Li operator is a convolution operator over a finite interval with a special highly oscillatory kernel. It plays an important role in laser engineering. However, the mathematical analysis of its spectrum is still rather incomplete. In this expository paper we survey part of the state of the art, and our emphasis is on showing how standard Wiener–Hopf theory can be used to obtain insight into the behaviour of the singular values of the Fox–Li operator. In addition, several approximations to the spectrum of the Fox–Li operator are discussed and results on the singular values and eigenvalues of certain related operators are derived

    On systems of differential equations with extrinsic oscillation

    Get PDF
    We present a numerical scheme for an efficient discretization of nonlinear systems of differential equations subjected to highly oscillatory perturbations. This method is superior to standard ODE numerical solvers in the presence of high frequency forcing terms,and is based on asymptotic expansions of the solution in inverse powers of the oscillatory parameter w, featuring modulated Fourier series in the expansion coefficients. Analysis of numerical stability and numerical examples are included
