We develop new numerical schemes for Vlasov--Poisson equations with high-order accuracy. Our methods are based on a spatially monotonicity-preserving (MP) scheme and are modified suitably so that positivity of the distribution function is also preserved. We adopt an efficient semi-Lagrangian time integration scheme that is more accurate and computationally less expensive than the three-stage TVD Runge-Kutta integration. We apply our spatially fifth- and seventh-order schemes to a suite of simulations of collisionless self-gravitating systems and electrostatic plasma simulations, including linear and nonlinear Landau damping in one dimension and Vlasov--Poisson simulations in a six-dimensional phase space. The high-order schemes achieve a significantly improved accuracy in comparison with the third-order positive-flux-conserved scheme adopted in our previous study. With the semi-Lagrangian time integration, the computational cost of our high-order schemes does not significantly increase, but remains roughly the same as that of the third-order scheme. Vlasov--Poisson simulations on $128^3 times 128^3$ mesh grids have been successfully performed on a massively parallel computer.

Recently, a 4th-order asymptotic preserving multiderivative implicit-explicit (IMEX) scheme was developed (Schutz and Seal 2020, arXiv:2001.08268). This scheme is based on a 4th-order Hermite interpolation in time, and uses an approach based on opera
tor splitting that converges to the underlying quadrature if iterated sufficiently. Hermite schemes have been used in astrophysics for decades, particularly for N-body calculations, but not in a form suitable for solving stiff equations. In this work, we extend the scheme presented in Schutz and Seal 2020 to higher orders. Such high-order schemes offer advantages when one aims to find high-precision solutions to systems of differential equations containing stiff terms, which occur throughout the physical sciences. We begin by deriving Hermite schemes of arbitrary order and discussing the stability of these formulas. Afterwards, we demonstrate how the method of Schutz and Seal 2020 generalises in a straightforward manner to any of these schemes, and prove convergence properties of the resulting IMEX schemes. We then present results for methods ranging from 6th to 12th order and explore a selection of test problems, including both linear and nonlinear ordinary differential equations and Burgers equation. To our knowledge this is also the first time that Hermite time-stepping methods have been applied to partial differential equations. We then discuss some benefits of these schemes, such as their potential for parallelism and low memory usage, as well as limitations and potential drawbacks.
This paper presents a class of novel high-order accurate discontinuous Galerkin (DG) schemes for the compressible Euler equations under gravitational fields. A notable feature of these schemes is that they are well-balanced for a general hydrostatic
equilibrium state, and at the same time, provably preserve the positivity of density and pressure. In order to achieve the well-balanced and positivity-preserving properties simultaneously, a novel DG spatial discretization is carefully designed with suitable source term reformulation and a properly modified Harten-Lax-van Leer contact (HLLC) flux. Based on some technical decompositions as well as several key properties of the admissible states and HLLC flux, rigorous positivity-preserving analyses are carried out. It is proven that the resulting well-balanced DG schemes, coupled with strong stability preserving time discretizations, satisfy a weak positivity property, which implies that one can apply a simple existing limiter to effectively enforce the positivity-preserving property, without losing high-order accuracy and conservation. The proposed methods and analyses are applicable to the Euler system with general equation of state. Extensive one- and two-dimensional numerical tests demonstrate the desired properties of these schemes, including the exact preservation of the equilibrium state, the ability to capture small perturbation of such state, the robustness for solving problems involving low density and/or low pressure, and good resolution for smooth and discontinuous solutions.
In this paper, we design and analyze third order positivity-preserving discontinuous Galerkin (DG) schemes for solving the time-dependent system of Poisson--Nernst--Planck (PNP) equations, which has found much use in diverse applications. Our DG meth
od with Euler forward time discretization is shown to preserve the positivity of cell averages at all time steps. The positivity of numerical solutions is then restored by a scaling limiter in reference to positive weighted cell averages. The method is also shown to preserve steady states. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the third order accuracy and illustrate the positivity-preserving property in both one and two dimensions.
In most of mesh-free methods, the calculation of interactions between sample points or particles is the most time consuming. When we use mesh-free methods with high spatial orders, the order of the time integration should also be high. If we use usua
l Runge-Kutta schemes, we need to perform the interaction calculation multiple times per one time step. One way to reduce the number of interaction calculations is to use Hermite schemes, which use the time derivatives of the right hand side of differential equations, since Hermite schemes require smaller number of interaction calculations than RK schemes do to achieve the same order. In this paper, we construct a Hermite scheme for a mesh-free method with high spatial orders. We performed several numerical tests with fourth-order Hermite schemes and Runge-Kutta schemes. We found that, for both of Hermite and Runge-Kutta schemes, the overall error is determined by the error of spatial derivatives, for timesteps smaller than the stability limit. The calculation cost at the timestep size of the stability limit is smaller for Hermite schemes. Therefore, we conclude that Hermite schemes are more efficient than Runge-Kutta schemes and thus useful for high-order mesh-free methods for Lagrangian Hydrodynamics.
We design, analyze and numerically validate a novel discontinuous Galerkin method for solving the coagulation-fragmentation equations. The DG discretization is applied to the conservative form of the model, with flux terms evaluated by Gaussian quadr
ature with $Q=k+1$ quadrature points for polynomials of degree $k$. The positivity of the numerical solution is enforced through a simple scaling limiter based on positive cell averages. The positivity of cell averages is propagated by the time discretization provided a proper time step restriction is imposed.
