Hamiltonian Interpolation of Splitting Approximations for Nonlinear PDEs
We consider a wide class of semi linear Hamiltonian partial differential equations and their approximation by time splitting methods. We assume that the nonlinearity is polynomia...

Compressive Wave Computation
This paper considers large-scale simulations of wave propagation phenomena. We argue that it is possible to accurately compute a wavefield by decomposing it onto a largely incomp...

Persistent Intersection Homology
The theory of intersection homology was developed to study the singularities of a topologically stratified space. This paper incorporates this theory into the already developed f...

Quantifying Transversality by Measuring the Robustness of Intersections
By definition, transverse intersections are stable under infinitesimal perturbations. Using persistent homology, we extend this notion to a measure. Given a space of perturbatio...

Convergence of Fixed-Point Continuation Algorithms for Matrix Rank Minimization
The matrix rank minimization problem has applications in many fields such as system identification, optimal control, low-dimensional embedding etc. As this problem is NP-hard in ...

Finite Resolution Dynamics
We develop a new mathematical model for describing a dynamical system at limited resolution (or finite scale), and we give precise meaning to the notion of a dynamical system havi...

Discrete Lie Advection of Differential Forms
In this paper, we present a numerical technique for performing Lie advection of arbitrary differential forms. Leveraging advances in high-resolution finite volume methods for sca...

Accuracy and Stability of Computing High-order Derivatives of Analytic Functions by Cauchy Integrals
Abstract High-order derivatives of analytic functions are expressible as Cauchy integrals over circular contours, which can very effectively be approximated, e.g., by trapezoidal s...
