We present an energy-conserving discontinuous Galerkin scheme for the full-$f$ electromagnetic gyrokinetic system in the long-wavelength limit. We use the symplectic formulation and solve directly for $partial A_parallel/partial t$, the inductive component of the parallel electric field, using a generalized Ohms law derived directly from the gyrokinetic equation. Linear benchmarks are performed to verify the implementation and show that the scheme avoids the Amp`ere cancellation problem. We perform a nonlinear electromagnetic simulation in a helical open-field-line system as a rough model of the tokamak scrape-off layer using parameters from the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX). This is the first published nonlinear electromagnetic gyrokinetic simulation on open field lines. Comparisons are made to a corresponding electrostatic simulation.

Turbulent dynamics in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of magnetic fusion devices is intermittent with large fluctuations in density and pressure. Therefore, a model is required that allows perturbations of similar or even larger magnitude to the time-aver
aged background value. The fluid-turbulence code GRILLIX is extended to such a global model, which consistently accounts for large variation in plasma parameters. Derived from the drift reduced Braginskii equations, the new GRILLIX model includes electromagnetic and electron-thermal dynamics, retains global parametric dependencies and the Boussinesq approximation is not applied. The penalisation technique is combined with the flux-coordinate independent (FCI) approach [F. Hariri and M. Ottaviani, Comput.Phys.Commun. 184:2419, (2013); A. Stegmeir et al., Comput.Phys.Commun. 198:139, (2016)], which allows to study realistic diverted geometries with X-point(s) and general boundary contours. We characterise results from turbulence simulations and investigate the effect of geometry by comparing simulations in circular geometry with toroidal limiter against realistic diverted geometry at otherwise comparable parameters. Turbulence is found to be intermittent with relative fluctuation levels of up to 40% showing that a global description is indeed important. At the same time via direct comparison, we find that the Boussinesq approximation has only a small quantitative impact in a turbulent environment. In comparison to circular geometry the fluctuations are reduced in diverted geometry, which is related to a different zonal flow structure. Moreover, the fluctuation level has a more complex spatial distribution in diverted geometry. Due to local magnetic shear, which differs fundamentally in circular and diverted geometry, turbulent structures become strongly distorted in the perpendicular direction and are eventually damped away towards the X-point.
We present the recent development of hybridizable and embedded discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods for wave propagation problems in fluids, solids, and electromagnetism. In each of these areas, we describe the methods, discuss their main features, di
splay numerical results to illustrate their performance, and conclude with bibliography notes. The main ingredients in devising these DG methods are (i) a local Galerkin projection of the underlying partial differential equations at the element level onto spaces of polynomials of degree k to parametrize the numerical solution in terms of the numerical trace; (ii) a judicious choice of the numerical flux to provide stability and consistency; and (iii) a global jump condition that enforces the continuity of the numerical flux to obtain a global system in terms of the numerical trace. These DG methods are termed hybridized DG methods, because they are amenable to hybridization (static condensation) and hence to more efficient implementations. They share many common advantages of DG methods and possess some unique features that make them well-suited to wave propagation problems.
In this article, several discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin (DPG) methods with perfectly matched layers (PMLs) are derived along with their quasi-optimal graph test norms. Ultimately, two different complex coordinate stretching strategies are considered i
n these derivations. Unlike with classical formulations used by Bubnov-Galerkin methods, with so-called ultraweak variational formulations, these two strategies in fact deliver different formulations in the PML region. One of the strategies, which is argued to be more physically natural, is employed for numerically solving two- and three-dimensional time-harmonic acoustic, elastic, and electromagnetic wave propagation problems, defined in unbounded domains. Through these numerical experiments, efficacy of the new DPG methods with PMLs is verified.
In this paper, we construct an efficient numerical scheme for full-potential electronic structure calculations of periodic systems. In this scheme, the computational domain is decomposed into a set of atomic spheres and an interstitial region, and di
fferent basis functions are used in different regions: radial basis functions times spherical harmonics in the atomic spheres and plane waves in the interstitial region. These parts are then patched together by discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. Our scheme has the same philosophy as the widely used (L)APW methods in materials science, but possesses systematically spectral convergence rate. We provide a rigorous a priori error analysis of the DG approximations for the linear eigenvalue problems, and present some numerical simulations in electronic structure calculations.
This paper investigates the use of $ell^1$ regularization for solving hyperbolic conservation laws based on high order discontinuous Galerkin (DG) approximations. We first use the polynomial annihilation method to construct a high order edge sensor w
hich enables us to flag troubled elements. The DG approximation is enhanced in these troubled regions by activating $ell^1$ regularization to promote sparsity in the corresponding jump function of the numerical solution. The resulting $ell^1$ optimization problem is efficiently implemented using the alternating direction method of multipliers. By enacting $ell^1$ regularization only in troubled cells, our method remains accurate and efficient, as no additional regularization or expensive iterative procedures are needed in smooth regions. We present results for the inviscid Burgers equation as well as a nonlinear system of conservation laws using a nodal collocation-type DG method as a solver.
