Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods provide a means to obtain high-order accurate solutions in regions of smooth fluid flow while, with the aid of limiters, still resolving strong shocks. These and other properties make DG methods attractive for solving problems involving hydrodynamics; e.g., the core-collapse supernova problem. With that in mind we are developing a DG solver for the general relativistic, ideal hydrodynamics equations under a 3+1 decomposition of spacetime, assuming a conformally-flat approximation to general relativity. With the aid of limiters we verify the accuracy and robustness of our code with several difficult test-problems: a special relativistic Kelvin--Helmholtz instability problem, a two-dimensional special relativistic Riemann problem, and a one- and two-dimensional general relativistic standing accretion shock (SAS) problem. We find good agreement with published results, where available. We also establish sufficient resolution for the 1D SAS problem and find encouraging results regarding the standing accretion shock instability (SASI) in 2D.

This paper describes algorithms for non-relativistic hydrodynamics in the toolkit for high-order neutrino radiation hydrodynamics (thornado), which is being developed for multiphysics simulations of core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) and related proble ms with Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) methods. More specifically, thornado employs a spectral type nodal collocation approximation, and we have extended limiters - a slope limiter to prevent non-physical oscillations and a bound-enforcing limiter to prevent non-physical states - from the standard RKDG framework to be able to accommodate a tabulated nuclear equation of state (EoS). To demonstrate the efficacy of the algorithms with a nuclear EoS, we first present numerical results from basic test problems in idealized settings in one and two spatial dimensions, employing Cartesian, spherical-polar, and cylindrical coordinates. Then, we apply the RKDG method to the problem of adiabatic collapse, shock formation, and shock propagation in spherical symmetry, initiated with a 15 solar mass progenitor. We find that the extended limiters improve the fidelity and robustness of the RKDG method in idealized settings. The bound-enforcing limiter improves robustness of the RKDG method in the adiabatic collapse application, while we find that slope limiting in characteristic fields is vulnerable to structures in the EoS - more specifically, in the phase transition from nuclei and nucleons to bulk nuclear matter. The success of these applications marks an important step toward applying RKDG methods to more realistic CCSN simulations with thornado in the future.
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 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.
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.
The numerical solution of relativistic hydrodynamics equations in conservative form requires root-finding algorithms that invert the conservative-to-primitive variables map. These algorithms employ the equation of state of the fluid and can be comput ationally demanding for applications involving sophisticated microphysics models. This work explores the use of machine learning methods to speed up the recovery of primitives in relativistic hydrodynamics. Artificial neural networks are trained to replace either the interpolations of a tabulated equation of state or directly the conservative-to-primitive map. The application of these neural networks to simple benchmark problems show that both approaches improve over traditional root finders with tabular equation-of-state and multi-dimensional interpolations. In particular, the neural networks for the conservative-to-primitive map accelerate the variable recovery by more than an order of magnitude over standard methods while maintaining accuracy. Neural networks are thus an interesting option to improve the speed and robustness of relativistic hydrodynamics algorithms.
