Implicit-Explicit Linear Multistep Methods for Stiff Kinetic Equations

Stability of implicit - explicit linear multistep methods

In many applications, large systems of ordinary di erential equations (ODEs) have to be solved numerically that have both sti and nonsti parts. A popular approach in such cases is to integrate the sti parts implicitly and the nonsti parts explicitly. In this paper we study a class of implicit-explicit (IMEX) linear multistep methods intended for such applications. The paper focuses on the linea...

Implicit-explicit multistep methods for quasilinear parabolic equations

Efficient combinations of implicit and explicit multistep methods for nonlinear parabolic equations were recently studied in [1]. In this note we present a refined analysis to allow more general nonlinearities. The abstract theory is applied to a quasilinear parabolic equation.

Implicit-explicit multistep methods for nonlinear parabolic equations

Implicit–explicit multistep methods for nonlinear parabolic equations were recently analyzed in [2, 3, 1]. In these papers the linear operator of the equation is assumed time-independent, self-adjoint and positive definite; then, the linear part is discretized implicitly and the remaining part explicitly. Here we slightly relax the hypotheses on the linear operator by allowing part of it to be ...

Variable Step-size Implicit-explicit Linear Multistep Methods for Time-dependent Partial Differential Equations

Implicit-explicit (IMEX) linear multistep methods are popular techniques for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) with terms of different types. While fixed timestep versions of such schemes have been developed and studied, implicit-explicit schemes also naturally arise in general situations where the temporal smoothness of the solution changes. In this paper we consider easily impleme...
