In current work, non-familiar shifted Lucas polynomials are introduced. We have constructed a computational wavelet technique for solution of initial/boundary value second order differential equations. For this numerical scheme, we have developed weight function and Rodrigues formula for Lucas polynomials. Further, Lucas polynomials and their properties are used to propose shifted Lucas polynomials and then utilization of shifted Lucas polynomials provides us shifted Lucas wavelet. We furnished the operational matrix of differentiation and the product operational matrix of the shifted Lucas wavelets. Moreover, convergence and error analysis ensure accuracy of the proposed method. Illustrative examples show that the present method is numerically fruitful, effective and convenient for solving differential equations
We propose a signal analysis tool based on the sign (or the phase) of complex wavelet coefficients, which we call a signature. The signature is defined as the fine-scale limit of the signs of a signals complex wavelet coefficients. We show that the signature equals zero at sufficiently regular points of a signal whereas at salient features, such as jumps or cusps, it is non-zero. At such feature points, the orientation of the signature in the complex plane can be interpreted as an indicator of local symmetry and antisymmetry. We establish that the signature rotates in the complex plane under fractional Hilbert transforms. We show that certain random signals, such as white Gaussian noise and Brownian motions, have a vanishing signature. We derive an appropriate discretization and show the applicability to signal analysis.
Newtons method for polynomial root finding is one of mathematics most well-known algorithms. The method also has its shortcomings: it is undefined at critical points, it could exhibit chaotic behavior and is only guaranteed to converge locally. Based on the {it Geometric Modulus Principle} for a complex polynomial $p(z)$, together with a {it Modulus Reduction Theorem} proved here, we develop the {it Robust Newtons method} (RNM), defined everywhere with a step-size that guarantees an {it a priori} reduction in polynomial modulus in each iteration. Furthermore, we prove RNM iterates converge globally, either to a root or a critical point. Specifically, given $varepsilon $ and any seed $z_0$, in $t=O(1/varepsilon^{2})$ iterations of RNM, independent of degree of $p(z)$, either $|p(z_t)| leq varepsilon$ or $|p(z_t) p(z_t)| leq varepsilon$. By adjusting the iterates at {it near-critical points}, we describe a {it modified} RNM that necessarily convergence to a root. In combination with Smales point estimation, RNM results in a globally convergent Newtons method having a locally quadratic rate. We present sample polynomiographs that demonstrate how in contrast with Newtons method RNM smooths out the fractal boundaries of basins of attraction of roots. RNM also finds potentials in computing all roots of arbitrary degree polynomials. A particular consequence of RNM is a simple algorithm for solving cubic equations.
We introduce a new efficient algorithm for Helmholtz problems in perforated domains with the design of the scheme allowing for possibly large wavenumbers. Our method is based upon the Wavelet-based Edge Multiscale Finite Element Method (WEMsFEM) as proposed recently in [14]. For a regular coarse mesh with mesh size H, we establish O(H) convergence of this algorithm under the resolution assumption, and with the level parameter being sufficiently large. The performance of the algorithm is demonstrated by extensive 2-dimensional numerical tests including those motivated by photonic crystals.
Motivated by the recent work [He-Yuan, Balanced Augmented Lagrangian Method for Convex Programming, arXiv: 2108.08554v1, (2021)], a novel Augmented Lagrangian Method (ALM) has been proposed for solving a family of convex optimization problem subject to equality or inequality constraint. This new method is then extended to solve the multi-block separable convex optimization problem, and two related primal-dual hybrid gradient algorithms are also discussed. Preliminary and some new convergence results are established with the aid of variational analysis for both the saddle point of the problem and the first-order optimality conditions of involved subproblems.
We present a wavelet-based adaptive method for computing 3D multiscale flows in complex, time-dependent geometries, implemented on massively parallel computers. While our focus is on simulations of flapping insects, it can be used for other flow problems, including turbulence, as well. The incompressible fluid is modeled with an artificial compressibility approach in order to avoid solving elliptical problems. No-slip and in/outflow boundary conditions are imposed using volume penalization. The governing equations are discretized on a locally uniform Cartesian grid with centered finite differences, and integrated in time with a Runge--Kutta scheme, both of 4th order. The domain is partitioned into cubic blocks with equidistant grids with different resolution and, for each block, biorthogonal interpolating wavelets are used as refinement indicators and prediction operators. Thresholding the wavelet coefficients allows to generate dynamically evolving grids, and an adaption strategy tracks the solution in both space and scale. Blocks are distributed among MPI processes and the global topology of the grid is encoded using a tree-like data structure. Analyzing the different physical and numerical parameters allows balancing their individual error contributions and thus ensures optimal convergence while minimizing computational effort. Different validation tests score accuracy and performance of our new open source code, WABBIT (Wavelet Adaptive Block-Based solver for Interactions with Turbulence), on massively parallel computers using fully adaptive grids. Flow simulations of flapping insects demonstrate its applicability to complex, bio-inspired problems.
