Spherical radial basis functions are used to define approximate solutions to strongly elliptic pseudodifferential equations on the unit sphere. These equations arise from geodesy. The approximate solutions are found by the Galerkin and collocation methods. A salient feature of the paper is a {em unified theory} for error analysis of both approximation methods.

Finite-time coherent sets inhibit mixing over finite times. The most expensive part of the transfer operator approach to detecting coherent sets is the construction of the operator itself. We present a numerical method based on radial basis function collocation and apply it to a recent transfer operator construction that has been designed specifically for purely advective dynamics. The construction is based on a dynamic Laplacian operator and minimises the boundary size of the coherent sets relative to their volume. The main advantage of our new approach is a substantial reduction in the number of Lagrangian trajectories that need to be computed, leading to large speedups in the transfer operator analysis when this computation is costly.
We propose and test the first Reduced Radial Basis Function Method (R$^2$BFM) for solving parametric partial differential equations on irregular domains. The two major ingredients are a stable Radial Basis Function (RBF) solver that has an optimized set of centers chosen through a reduced-basis-type greedy algorithm, and a collocation-based model reduction approach that systematically generates a reduced-order approximation whose dimension is orders of magnitude smaller than the total number of RBF centers. The resulting algorithm is efficient and accurate as demonstrated through two- and three-dimensional test problems.
In this paper we consider two sources of enhancement for the meshfree Lagrangian particle method smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) by improving the accuracy of the particle approximation. Namely, we will consider shape functions constructed using: moving least-squares approximation (MLS); radial basis functions (RBF). Using MLS approximation is appealing because polynomial consistency of the particle approximation can be enforced. RBFs further appeal as they allow one to dispense with the smoothing-length -- the parameter in the SPH method which governs the number of particles within the support of the shape function. Currently, only ad hoc methods for choosing the smoothing-length exist. We ensure that any enhancement retains the conservative and meshfree nature of SPH. In doing so, we derive a new set of variationally-consistent hydrodynamic equations. Finally, we demonstrate the performance of the new equations on the Sod shock tube problem.
In this paper, we introduce a multiscale framework based on adaptive edge basis functions to solve second-order linear elliptic PDEs with rough coefficients. One of the main results is that we prove the proposed multiscale method achieves nearly exponential convergence in the approximation error with respect to the computational degrees of freedom. Our strategy is to perform an energy orthogonal decomposition of the solution space into a coarse scale component comprising $a$-harmonic functions in each element of the mesh, and a fine scale component named the bubble part that can be computed locally and efficiently. The coarse scale component depends entirely on function values on edges. Our approximation on each edge is made in the Lions-Magenes space $H_{00}^{1/2}(e)$, which we will demonstrate to be a natural and powerful choice. We construct edge basis functions using local oversampling and singular value decomposition. When local information of the right-hand side is adaptively incorporated into the edge basis functions, we prove a nearly exponential convergence rate of the approximation error. Numerical experiments validate and extend our theoretical analysis; in particular, we observe no obvious degradation in accuracy for high-contrast media problems.
We study a system of pseudodifferential equations that is elliptic in the sense of Petrovskii on a closed compact smooth manifold. We prove that the operator generated by the system is Fredholm one on a refined two-sided scale of the functional Hilbert spaces. Elements of this scale are the special isotropic spaces of H{o}rmander--Volevich--Paneah.
