A space-time collocation method (STCM) using asymptotically-constant basis functions is proposed and applied to the quantum Hamiltonian constraint for a loop-quantized treatment of the Schwarzschild interior. Canonically, these descriptions take the form of a partial-difference equation (PDE). The space-time collocation approach presents a computationally efficient, convergent, and easily parallelizable method for solving this class of equations, which is the main novelty of this study. Results of the numerical simulations will demonstrate the benefit from a parallel computing approach; and show general flexibility of the framework to handle arbitrarily-sized domains. Computed solutions will be compared, when applicable, to a solution computed in the conventional method via iteratively stepping through a predefined grid of discrete values, computing the solution via a recursive relationship.

We numerically solve two-dimensional heat diffusion problems by using a simple variant of the meshfree local radial-basis function (RBF) collocation method. The main idea is to include an additional set of sample nodes outside the problem domain, similarly to the method of images in electrostatics, to perform collocation on the domain boundaries. We can thereby take into account the temperature profile as well as its gradients specified by boundary conditions at the same time, which holds true even for a node where two or more boundaries meet with different boundary conditions. We argue that the image method is computationally efficient when combined with the local RBF collocation method, whereas the addition of image nodes becomes very costly in case of the global collocation. We apply our modified method to a benchmark test of a boundary value problem, and find that this simple modification reduces the maximum error from the analytic solution significantly. The reduction is small for an initial value problem with simpler boundary conditions. We observe increased numerical instability, which has to be compensated for by a sufficient number of sample nodes and/or more careful parameter choices for time integration.
We propose and study numerically the implicit approximation in time of the Navier-Stokes equations by a Galerkin-collocation method in time combined with inf-sup stable finite element methods in space. The conceptual basis of the Galerkin-collocation approach is the establishment of a direct connection between the Galerkin method and the classical collocation methods, with the perspective of achieving the accuracy of the former with reduced computational costs in terms of less complex algebraic systems of the latter. Regularity of higher order in time of the discrete solution is ensured further. As an additional ingredient, we employ Nitsches method to impose all boundary conditions in weak form with the perspective that evolving domains become feasible in the future. We carefully compare the performance poroperties of the Galerkin-collocation approach with a standard continuous Galerkin-Petrov method using piecewise linear polynomials in time, that is algebraically equivalent to the popular Crank-Nicholson scheme. The condition number of the arising linear systems after Newton linearization as well as the reliable approximation of the drag and lift coefficient for laminar flow around a cylinder (DFG flow benchmark with $Re=100$) are investigated. The superiority of the Galerkin-collocation approach over the linear in time, continuous Galerkin-Petrov method is demonstrated therein.
Conversion of vacuum fluctuations into real particles was first predicted by L. Parker considering an expanding universe, followed in S. Hawkings work on black hole radiation. Since their experimental observation is challenging, analogue systems have gained attention in the verification of this concept. Here we propose an experimental set-up consisting of two adjacent piezoelectric semiconducting layers, one of them carrying dynamic quantum dots (DQDs), and the other being p-doped with an attached gate on top, which introduces a space-dependent layer conductivity. The propagation of surface acoustic waves (SAWs) on the latter layer is governed by a wave equation with an effective metric. In the frame of the DQDs, this space- and time-dependent metric possesses a sonic horizon for SAWs and resembles that of a two dimensional non-rotating and uncharged black hole to some extent. The non-thermal steady state of the DQD spin indicates particle creation in form of piezophonons.
This paper presents a novel semi-analytical collocation method to solve multi-term variable-order time fractional partial differential equations (VOTFPDEs). In the proposed method it employs the Fourier series expansion for spatial discretization, which transforms the original multi-term VOTFPDEs into a sequence of multi-term variable-order time fractional ordinary differential equations (VOTFODEs). Then these VOTFODEs can be solved by using the recent-developed backward substitution method. Several numerical examples verify the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed numerical approach in the solution of multi-term VOTFPDEs.
There are plenty of applications and analysis for time-independent elliptic partial differential equations in the literature hinting at the benefits of overtesting by using more collocation conditions than the number of basis functions. Overtesting not only reduces the problem size, but is also known to be necessary for stability and convergence of widely used unsymmetric Kansa-type strong-form collocation methods. We consider kernel-based meshfree methods, which is a method of lines with collocation and overtesting spatially, for solving parabolic partial differential equations on surfaces without parametrization. In this paper, we extend the time-independent convergence theories for overtesting techniques to the parabolic equations on smooth and closed surfaces.
