Imex Method Convergence for a Parabolic Equation
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract. Although implicit-explicit (IMEX) methods for approximating solutions to semilinear parabolic equations are relatively standard, most recent works examine the case of a fully discretized model. We show that by discretizing time only, one can obtain an elementary convergence result for an implicit-explicit method. This convergence result is strong enough to imply existence and uniqueness of solutions to a class of semilinear parabolic equations.

A shortcut for IMEX methods: integrate the residual explicitly
In numerical time-integration with implicit-explicit (IMEX) methods, a within-step adaptable decomposition called residual balanced decomposition is introduced. This decomposition allows any residual occurring in the implicit equation of the implicit-step to be moved into the explicit part of the decomposition. By balancing the residual, the accuracy of the local truncation error of the time-st...
متن کاملParameter determination in a parabolic inverse problem in general dimensions
It is well known that the parabolic partial differential equations in two or more space dimensions with overspecified boundary data, feature in the mathematical modeling of many phenomena. In this article, an inverse problem of determining an unknown time-dependent source term of a parabolic equation in general dimensions is considered. Employing some transformations, we change the inverse prob...
متن کاملImex Runge-kutta Schemes for Hyperbolic Systems with Diffusive Relaxation
The purpose of the talk is to give a review on effective methods for the numerical solution of hyperbolic systems with parabolic relaxation. We consider mathematical models described by a set of hyperbolic equations with relaxation. As the relaxation parameter vanishes, the characteristic speeds of the system diverge, and the system reduces to a parabolic-type equation (typically a convection-d...
متن کاملImplicit-Explicit Runge-Kutta Schemes for Hyperbolic Systems and Kinetic Equations in the Diffusion Limit
We consider the development of Implicit-Explicit (IMEX) RungeKutta schemes for hyperbolic and kinetic equations in the diffusion limit. In such regime the system relaxes towards a parabolic diffusion equation and it is desirable to have a method that is able to capture the asymptotic behavior with an implicit treatment of limiting diffusive terms. To this goal we reformulate the problem by prop...
متن کاملConvergence of the implicit-explicit Euler scheme applied to perturbed dissipative evolution equations
We present a convergence analysis for the implicit-explicit (IMEX) Euler discretization of nonlinear evolution equations. The governing vector field of such an equation is assumed to be the sum of an unbounded dissipative operator and a Lipschitz continuous perturbation. By employing the theory of dissipative operators on Banach spaces, we prove that the IMEX Euler and the implicit Euler scheme...
