We show how methods from nonlinear spectral theory can be used to analyse the time behaviour of dynamical discrete event systems. RÉSUMÉ. Nous montrons comment analyser le comportement temporel des systèmes à événements discrets à l’aide de résultats de théorie spectrale non-linéaire.

This study is concerned with the solution of the time domain Maxwell’s equations in a dispersive propagation media by a Discontinuous Galerkin Time Domain (DGTD) method. The Debye model is used to describe the dispersive behaviour of the media. The resulting system of equations is solved using a centered flux discontinuous Galerkin formulation for the discretization in space and a second order ...
