In this article, we address both recent advances and open questions in some mathematical and computational issues in geophysical fluid dynamics (GFD) and climate dynamics. The main focus is on 1) the primitive equations (PEs) models and their related mathematical and computational issues, 2) climate variability, predictability and successive bifurcation, and 3) a new dynamical systems theory and its applications to GFD and climate dynamics.

Due to the limited cell resolution in the representation of flow variables, a piecewise continuous initial reconstruction with discontinuous jump at a cell interface is usually used in modern computational fluid dynamics methods. Starting from the di scontinuity, a Riemann problem in the Godunov method is solved for the flux evaluation across the cell interface in a finite volume scheme. With the increasing of Mach number in the CFD simulations, the adaptation of the Riemann solver seems introduce intrinsically a mechanism to develop instabilities in strong shock regions. Theoretically, the Riemann solution of the Euler equations are based on the equilibrium assumption, which may not be valid in the non-equilibrium shock layer. In order to clarify the flow physics from a discontinuity, the unsteady flow behavior of one-dimensional contact and shock wave is studied on a time scale of (0~10000) times of the particle collision time. In the study of the non-equilibrium flow behavior from a discontinuity, the collision-less Boltzmann equation is first used for the time scale within one particle collision time, then the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method will be adapted to get the further evolution solution. The transition from the free particle transport to the dissipative Navier-Stokes (NS) solutions are obtained as an increasing of time. The exact Riemann solution becomes a limiting solution with infinite number of particle collisions. For the high Mach number flow simulations, the points in the shock transition region, even though the region is enlarged numerically to the mesh size, should be considered as the points inside a highly non-equilibrium shock layer.
The climate system is a complex, chaotic system with many degrees of freedom and variability on a vast range of temporal and spatial scales. Attaining a deeper level of understanding of its dynamical processes is a scientific challenge of great urgen cy, especially given the ongoing climate change and the evolving climate crisis. In statistical physics, complex, many-particle systems are studied successfully using the mathematical framework of Large Deviation Theory (LDT). A great potential exists for applying LDT to problems relevant for geophysical fluid dynamics and climate science. In particular, LDT allows for understanding the fundamental properties of persistent deviations of climatic fields from the long-term averages and for associating them to low-frequency, large scale patterns of climatic variability. Additionally, LDT can be used in conjunction with so-called rare events algorithms to explore rarely visited regions of the phase space and thus to study special dynamical configurations of the climate. These applications are of key importance to improve our understanding of high-impact weather and climate events. Furthermore, LDT provides powerful tools for evaluating the probability of noise-induced transitions between competing metastable states of the climate system or of its components. This in turn essential for improving our understanding of the global stability properties of the climate system and of its predictability of the second kind in the sense of Lorenz. The goal of this review is manifold. First, we want to provide an introduction to the derivation of large deviation laws in the context of stochastic processes. We then relate such results to the existing literature showing the current status of applications of LDT in climate science and geophysical fluid dynamics. Finally, we propose some possible lines of future investigations.

Non-linear effects in accelerator physics are important for both successful operation of accelerators and during the design stage. Since both of these aspects are closely related, they will be treated together in this overview. Some of the most impor tant aspects are well described by methods established in other areas of physics and mathematics. The treatment will be focused on the problems in accelerators used for particle physics experiments. Although the main emphasis will be on accelerator physics issues, some of the aspects of more general interest will be discussed. In particular, we demonstrate that in recent years a framework has been built to handle the complex problems in a consistent form, technically superior and conceptually simpler than the traditional techniques. The need to understand the stability of particle beams has substantially contributed to the development of new techniques and is an important source of examples which can be verified experimentally. Unfortunately, the documentation of these developments is often poor or even unpublished, in many cases only available as lectures or conference proceedings.

In this paper, we begin by reviewing a certain number of mathematical challenges posed by the modelling of collective dynamics and self-organization. Then, we focus on two specific problems, first, the derivation of fluid equations from particle dyna mics of collective motion and second, the study of phase transitions and the stability of the associated equilibria.

We derive the leading order radiation through tunneling of an oscillating soliton in a well. We use the hydrodynamic formulation with a rigorous control of the errors for finite times.
