In this paper we report on the parallelization of a split-step algorithm for the Schrödinger equation. The problem is represented in spherical coordinates in physical space and transformed to Fourier space for operation by the Laplacian operator, and Legendre space for operation by the Angular momentum operator and the Potential operator. Timing results are reported and analyzed for 3 different...

We construct a wavelet basis on the unit interval with respect to which both the (infinite) mass and stiffness matrix corresponding to the one-dimensional Laplacian are (truly) sparse and boundedly invertible. As a consequence, the (infinite) stiffness matrix corresponding to the Laplacian on the n-dimensional unit box with respect to the n-fold tensor product wavelet basis is also sparse and b...

Reiner and Webb (preprint, 2002) compute the Sn-module structure for the complex of injective words. This paper refines their formula by providing a Hodge type decomposition. Along the way, this paper proves that the simplicial boundary map interacts in a nice fashion with the Eulerian idempotents. The Laplacian acting on the top chain group in the complex of injective words is also shown to eq...

We consider Γ = (X, E) a dual polar graph and we give a tight frame on each eigenspace of the Laplacian operator associated to Γ. We compute the constants associated to each tight frame and as an application we give a formula for the product in the Norton algebra attached to the eigenspace corresponding to the second largest eigenvalue of the Laplacian.

A scale of Sobolev spaces is introduced to measure the global hypoellipticity of the twisted Laplacian. The essential self-adjointness of the twisted Laplacian is established and the domain of the unique self-adjoint extension is determined in terms of the Sobolev spaces. The global hypoellipticity of the twisted Laplacian in the Gelfand–Shilov spaces is also proved. 1. The twisted Laplacian Le...

The Schrödinger operators on the Newtonian space-time are defined in a way which make them independent on the class of inertial observers. In this picture the Schrödinger operators act not on functions on the space-time but on sections of certain one-dimensional complex vector bundle – the Schrödinger line bundle. This line bundle has trivializations indexed by inertial observers and is associa...

The graph Laplacian operator is widely studied in spectral graph theory largely due to its importance in modern data analysis. Recently, the Fourier transform and other time-frequency operators have been defined on graphs using Laplacian eigenvalues and eigenvectors. We extend these results and prove that the translation operator to the i’th node is invertible if and only if all eigenvectors ar...

Different approximating expressions for the surface Laplacian operator on a triangulated surface are derived. They are evaluated on a triangulated spherical surface for which the analytical expression of the surface Laplacian is known. It is shown that in order to obtain accurate results, due care has to be taken of irregularities present in the triangulation grid. If this?s done, the approxima...

The 1D discrete fractional Laplacian operator on a cyclically closed (periodic) linear chain with finite number N of identical particles is introduced. We suggest a ”fractional elastic harmonic potential”, and obtain the N -periodic fractional Laplacian operator in the form of a power law matrix function for the finite chain (N arbitrary not necessarily large) in explicit form. In the limiting ...

Series expansions are obtained for a rich subset of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of an operator that arises in the study of rectangular membranes: the operator is the 2-D Laplacian with restorative force term and Dirichlet boundary conditions. Expansions are extracted by considering the restorative force term as a linear perturbation of the Laplacian; errors of truncation for these expansions...
