We present several first-order and second-order numerical schemes for the Cahn-Hilliard equation with discrete unconditional energy stability. These schemes stem from the generalized Positive Auxiliary Variable (gPAV) idea, and require only the solution of linear algebraic systems with a constant coefficient matrix. More importantly, the computational complexity (operation count per time step) of these schemes is approximately a half of those of the gPAV and the scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) methods in previous works. We investigate the stability properties of the proposed schemes to establish stability bounds for the field function and the auxiliary variable, and also provide their error analyses. Numerical experiments are presented to verify the theoretical analyses and also demonstrate the stability of the schemes at large time step sizes.

We present and analyze an unconditionally energy stable and convergent finite difference scheme for the Functionalized Cahn-Hilliard equation. One key difficulty associated with the energy stability is based on the fact that one nonlinear energy func tional term in the expansion appears as non-convex, non-concave. To overcome this subtle difficulty, we add two auxiliary terms to make the combined term convex, which in turns yields a convex-concave decomposition of the physical energy. As a result, an application of the convex splitting methodology assures both the unique solvability and the unconditional energy stability of the proposed numerical scheme. To deal with a 4-Laplacian solver in an $H^{-1}$ gradient flow at each time step, we apply an efficient preconditioned steepest descent algorithm to solve the corresponding nonlinear systems. In addition, a global in time $H_{rm per}^2$ stability of the numerical scheme is established at a theoretical level, which in turn ensures the full order convergence analysis of the scheme. A few numerical results are presented, which confirm the stability and accuracy of the proposed numerical scheme.

We propose a novel second order in time numerical scheme for Cahn-Hilliard-Navier- Stokes phase field model with matched density. The scheme is based on second order convex-splitting for the Cahn-Hilliard equation and pressure-projection for the Navi er-Stokes equation. We show that the scheme is mass-conservative, satisfies a modified energy law and is therefore unconditionally stable. Moreover, we prove that the scheme is uncondition- ally uniquely solvable at each time step by exploring the monotonicity associated with the scheme. Thanks to the weak coupling of the scheme, we design an efficient Picard iteration procedure to further decouple the computation of Cahn-Hilliard equation and Navier-Stokes equation. We implement the scheme by the mixed finite element method. Ample numerical experiments are performed to validate the accuracy and efficiency of the numerical scheme.
A time-fractional Allen-Cahn equation with volume constraint is first proposed by introducing a nonlocal time-dependent Lagrange multiplier. Adaptive linear second-order energy stable schemes are developed for the proposed model by combining invarian t energy quadratization and scalar auxiliary variable approaches with the recent L1$^{+}$ formula. The new developed methods are proved to be volume-preserving and unconditionally energy stable on arbitrary nonuniform time meshes. The accelerated algorithm and adaptive time strategy are employed in numerical implement. Numerical results show that the proposed algorithms are computationally efficient in multi-scale simulations, and appropriate for accurately resolving the intrinsically initial singularity of solution and for efficiently capturing the fast dynamics away initial time.
We present a systematical approach to developing arbitrarily high order, unconditionally energy stable numerical schemes for thermodynamically consistent gradient flow models that satisfy energy dissipation laws. Utilizing the energy quadratization ( EQ) method, We formulate the gradient flow model into an equivalent form with a corresponding quadratic free energy functional. Based on the equivalent form with a quadratic energy, we propose two classes of energy stable numerical approximations. In the first approach, we use a prediction-correction strategy to improve the accuracy of linear numerical schemes. In the second approach, we adopt the Gaussian collocation method to discretize the equivalent form with a quadratic energy, arriving at an arbitrarily high-order scheme for gradient flow models. Schemes derived using both approaches are proved rigorously to be unconditionally energy stable. The proposed schemes are then implemented in four gradient flow models numerically to demonstrate their accuracy and effectiveness. Detailed numerical comparisons among these schemes are carried out as well. These numerical strategies are rather general so that they can be readily generalized to solve any thermodynamically consistent PDE models.
In this paper we propose and analyze an energy stable numerical scheme for the Cahn-Hilliard equation, with second order accuracy in time and the fourth order finite difference approximation in space. In particular, the truncation error for the long stencil fourth order finite difference approximation, over a uniform numerical grid with a periodic boundary condition, is analyzed, via the help of discrete Fourier analysis instead of the the standard Taylor expansion. This in turn results in a reduced regularity requirement for the test function. In the temporal approximation, we apply a second order BDF stencil, combined with a second order extrapolation formula applied to the concave diffusion term, as well as a second order artificial Douglas-Dupont regularization term, for the sake of energy stability. As a result, the unique solvability, energy stability are established for the proposed numerical scheme, and an optimal rate convergence analysis is derived in the $ell^infty (0,T; ell^2) cap ell^2 (0,T; H_h^2)$ norm. A few numerical experiments are presented, which confirm the robustness and accuracy of the proposed scheme.
