It is still an open problem to prove a priori error estimates for finite volume schemes of higher order MUSCL type, including limiters, on unstructured meshes, which show some improvement compared to first order schemes. In this paper we use these higher order schemes for the discretization of convection dominated elliptic problems in a convex bounded domain Ω in IR2 and we can prove such kind ...

We study the local discretization error of Patankar-type Runge-Kutta methods applied to semi-discrete PDEs. For a known two-stage Patankar-type scheme the local error in PDE sense for linear advection or diffusion is shown to be of the maximal order O(Δt3) for sufficiently smooth and positive exact solutions. However, in a test case mimicking a wetting-drying situation as in the context of shal...

Though a Hermite subdivision scheme is non-stationary by nature, its non-stationarity can be of two types, making useful the distinction between Inherently Stationary (I.S.) and Inherently Non-Stationary (I.N.S.) Hermite subdivision schemes. This paper focuses on the class of inherently stationary, dual non-interpolatory Hermite subdivision schemes that can be obtained from known Hermite interp...

Net subdivision schemes recursively refine nets of univariate continuous functions defined on the lines of planar grids, and generate as limits bivariate continuous functions. In this paper a family of interpolatory net subdivision schemes related to the family of Dubuc-Deslauriers interpolatory subdivision schemes is constructed and analyzed. The construction is based on Gordon blending interp...

Lubrication equations are fourth order degenerate diffusion equations of the form ht + ∇ · (f(h)∇∆h) = 0, describing thin films or liquid layers driven by surface tension. Recent studies of singularities in which h → 0 at a point, describing rupture of the fluid layer, show that such equations exhibit complex dynamics which can be difficult to simulate accurately. In particular, one must ensure...

Through a linear analysis, we show how to modify Godunov type schemes applied to the compressible Euler system to make them accurate at any Mach number. This allows to propose all Mach Godunov type schemes. A linear stability result is proposed and a formal asymptotic analysis justifies the construction in the barotropic case when the Godunov type scheme is a Roe scheme. We also underline that ...

Kwok [10] studied the association schemes obtained by the action of the semidirect products of the orthogonal groups over the finite fields and the underlying vector spaces. They are called the assiciation schemes of a‰ne type. In this paper, we define the association schemes of a‰ne type over the finite ring Zq 1⁄4 Z=qZ where q is a prime power in the same manner, and calculate their character...

At PKC 2006, Chevallier-Mames, Paillier, and Pointcheval proposed a very elegant technique over cyclic subgroups of Fp eliminating the need to encode the message as a group element in the ElGamal encryption scheme. Unfortunately, it is unclear how to adapt their scheme over elliptic curves. In a previous attempt, Virat suggested an adaptation of ElGamal to elliptic curves over the ring of dual ...
