Computing singular and near-singular integrals over curved boundary elements: The strongly singular case

We present algorithms for computing strongly singular and near-singular surface integrals over curved triangular patches, based on singularity subtraction, the continuation approach, and transplanted Gauss quadrature. We demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of our method for quadratic basis functions and quadratic triangles by integrating it into a boundary element code and solving several scattering problems in 3D. We also give numerical evidence that the utilization of curved boundary elements enhances computational efficiency compared to conventional planar elements.

Nonlocal Optimized Schwarz Methods for time-harmonic electromagnetics

We introduce a new domain decomposition strategy for time harmonic Maxwell's equations that is valid in the case of automatically generated subdomain partitions with possible presence of cross-points. The convergence of the algorithm is guaranteed and we present a complete analysis of the matrix form of the method. The method involves transmission matrices responsible for imposing coupling between subdomains. We discuss the choice of such matrices, their construction and the impact of this choice on the convergence of the domain decomposition algorithm. Numerical results and algorithms are provided.

Monotone and Consistent discretization of the Monge-Ampere operator

We introduce a novel discretization of the Monge-Ampere operator, simultaneously consistent and degenerate elliptic, hence accurate and robust in applications. These properties are achieved by exploiting the arithmetic structure of the discrete domain, assumed to be a two dimensional cartesian grid. The construction of our scheme is simple, but its analysis relies on original tools seldom encountered in numerical analysis, such as the geometry of two dimensional lattices, and an arithmetic structure called the Stern-Brocot tree. Numerical experiments illustrate the method's efficiency.
