Level Set Method for Solving Poisson’s Equation with Discontinuous Nonlinearities
نویسنده
چکیده
We study semi-linear elliptic free boundary problems in which the forcing term is discontinuous; i.e., a Poisson’s equation where the forcing term is the Heaviside function applied to the unknown minus a constant. This approach uses level sets to construct a monotonic sequence of iterates which converge to a class of solutions to the free boundary problem. The monotonicity of the construction based on nested sets provides insight into the connectivity of the free boundary sets associated with the solutions.

متن کاملA Novel Fast Solver for Poisson’s Equation with Neumann Boundary Condition
In this paper, we present a novel fast method to solve Poisson’s equation in an arbitrary two dimensional region with Neumann boundary condition, which are frequently encountered in solving electrostatic boundary problems. The basic idea is to solve the original Poisson’s equation by a two-step procedure. In the first stage, we expand the electric field of interest by a set of tree basis functi...

The RKDG conservative level set method yields superior results compared to standard finite di...

متن کاملA High Order Numerical Method for Computing Physical Observables in the Semiclassical Limit of the One-Dimensional Linear Schrödinger Equation with Discontinuous Potentials
We develop a fourth order numerical method for the computation of multivalued physical observables (density, momentum, etc.) in the semiclassical limit of the one dimensional linear Schrödinger equation in the case of discontinuous potentials. We adopt the level set framework developed in [21] which allows one to compute the multivalued physical observables via solving the classical Liouville e...
