چکیده
Solving the Vlasov equation with a high accuracy and a minimum computational cost represents a great challenge. Adaptive methods based on a sparse mesh are a classical answer. In this paper, we propose a new adaptive method with a minimum overhead due to sparse mesh management.

A Block-Based Parallel Adaptive Scheme for Solving the 4D Vlasov Equation
We present a parallel algorithm for solving the 4D Vlasov equation. Our algorithm is designed for distributed memory architectures. It uses an adaptive numerical method which reduces computational cost. This adaptive method is a semi-Lagrangian scheme based on hierarchical finite elements. It involves a local interpolation operator. Our algorithm handles both irregular data dependencies and the...
متن کاملComparison of two Eulerian solvers for the four-dimensional Vlasov equation: Part II
In this second part, we carry out a numerical comparison between two Vlasov solvers, which solve directly the Vlasov equation on a grid of the phase space. The two methods are based on the semi-Lagrangian method as presented in Part I: the first one (LOSS) uses a uniform mesh of the phase space whereas the second one (OBI) is an adaptive method. The numerical comparisons are performed by solvin...
متن کاملA Direct and Accurate Adaptive Semi-Lagrangian Scheme for the Vlasov-Poisson Equation
This article aims at giving a simplified presentation of a new adaptive semi-Lagrangian scheme for solving the (1 + 1)dimensional Vlasov-Poisson system, which was developed in 2005 with Michel Mehrenberger and first described in (Campos Pinto and Mehrenberger, 2007). The main steps of the analysis are also given, which yield the first error estimate for an adaptive scheme in the context of the ...
متن کاملComparison of two Eulerian solvers for the four-dimensional Vlasov equation: Part I
This paper presents two methods for solving the four-dimensional Vlasov equation on a grid of the phase space. The two methods are based on the semi-Lagrangian method which consists in computing the distribution function at each grid point by following the characteristic curve ending there. The first method reconstructs the distribution function using local splines which are well suited for a p...
متن کاملNumerical resolution of the Vlasov equation for the Hamiltonian Mean-Field model
We present in this paper detailed numerical Vlasov simulations of the Hamiltonian Mean-Field model. This model is used as a representative of the class of systems under long-range interactions. We check existing results on the stability of the homogeneous situation and analyze numerical properties of the semi-Lagrangian time-split algorithm for solving the Vlasov equation. We also detail limita...
