We study a class of partial differential equations (PDEs) in the family of the so-called Euler-Poincare differential systems, with the aim of developing a foundation for numerical algorithms of their solutions. This requires particular attention to the mathematical properties of this system when the associated class of elliptic operators possesses non-smooth kernels. By casting the system in its Lagrangian (or characteristics) form, we first formulate a particles system algorithm in free space with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions for the evolving fields. We next examine the deformation of the system when non-homogeneous constant stream boundary conditions are assumed. We show how this simple change at the boundary deeply affects the nature of the evolution, from hyperbolic-like to dispersive with a non-trivial dispersion relation, and examine the potentially regularizing properties of singular kernels offered by this deformation. From the particle algorithm viewpoint, kernel singularities affect the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the corresponding ordinary differential equations systems. We illustrate this with the case when the operator kernel assumes a conical shape over the spatial variables, and examine in detail two-particle dynamics under the resulting lack of Lipschitz-continuity. Curiously, we find that for the conically-shaped kernels the motion of the related two-dimensional waves can become completely integrable under appropriate initial data. This reduction projects the two-dimensional system to the one-dimensional completely integrable Shallow-Water equation [Camassa, R. and Holm, D. D., Phys. Rev. Lett., 71, 1961-1964, 1993], while retaining the full dependence on two spatial dimensions for the single channel solutions.

The Euler-Poincare (EP) equations describe the geodesic motion on the diffeomorphism group. For template matching (template deformation), the Euler-Lagrangian equation, arising from minimizing an energy function, falls into the Euler-Poincare theory and can be recast into the EP equations. By casting the EP equations in the Lagrangian (or characteristics) form, we formulate the equations as a finite dimensional particle system. The evolution of this particle system describes the geodesic motion of landmark points on a Riemann manifold. In this paper we present a class of novel algorithms that take advantage of the structure of the particle system to achieve a fast matching process between the reference and the target templates. The strong suit of the proposed algorithms includes (1) the efficient feedback control iteration, which allows one to find the initial velocity field for driving the deformation from the reference template to the target one, (2) the use of the conical kernel in the particle system, which limits the interaction between particles and thus accelerates the convergence, and (3) the availability of the implementation of fast-multipole method for solving the particle system, which could reduce the computational cost from $O(N^2)$ to $O(Nlog N)$, where $N$ is the number of particles. The convergence properties of the proposed algorithms are analyzed. Finally, we present several examples for both exact and inexact matchings, and numerically analyze the iterative process to illustrate the efficiency and the robustness of the proposed algorithms.
This paper is concerned with the study, by computational means, of the generation and stability of solitary-wave solutions of generaliz
We numerically study solitary waves in the coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations. We detect pitchfork bifurcations of the fundamental solitary wave and compute eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the corresponding eigenvalue problems to determine the spectral stability of solitary waves born at the pitchfork bifurcations. Our numerical results demonstrate the theoretical ones which the authors obtained recently. We also compute generalized eigenfunctions associated with the zero eigenvalue for the bifurcated solitary wave exhibiting a saddle-node bifurcation, and show that it does not change its stability type at the saddle-node bifurcation point.
The Green Nagdhi equations are frequently used as a model of the wave-like behaviour of the free surface of a fluid, or the interface between two homogeneous fluids of differing densities. Here we show that their multilayer extension arises naturally from a framework based on the Euler Poincare theory under an ansatz of columnar motion. The framework also extends to the travelling wave solutions of the equations. We present numerical solutions of the travelling wave problem in a number of flow regimes. We find that the free surface and multilayer waves can exhibit intriguing differences compared to the results of single layer or rigid lid models.
In this work we design a new domain decomposition method for the Euler equations in 2 dimensions. The basis is the equivalence via the Smith factorization with a third order scalar equation to whom we can apply an algorithm inspired from the Robin-Robin preconditioner for the convection-diffusion equation. Afterwards we translate it into an algorithm for the initial system and prove that at the continuous level and for a decomposition into 2 sub-domains, it converges in 2 iterations. This property cannot be preserved strictly at discrete level and for arbitrary domain decompositions but we still have numerical results which confirm a very good stability with respect to the various parameters of the problem (mesh size, Mach number, ....).
