WepresentatwolevelSchwarzmethodasanalternativetoAlgebraicMultigridmethod(AMG) used as the last level (coarse) solver of the p-multigrid pMG preconditioner for pressure Poission equation resulting from Spectral/Finite element descretization of incompressible Navier-Stokes eqaution. Proposed Schwarz method consits of a local problem in the original pMG coarse space and a global coarse problem. Main contribution of the paper is a novel, structured and a non-nested coarse space for the global coarse problem. Structured nature of the proposed global coarse space enable communication-free interpolation between the original p-multgrid coarse space and the global coarse problem. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method compared to the state of the art AMG solver BoomerAMG by a series of experiments performed using Nek5000/RS, a suite of highly scalable incompressible Navier-Stokes solvers, on Summit/Frontier supercomputers at Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility.

Nonlinear geotechnical analysis often involves complex geometries, staged construction, local failure, and mesh-dependent stress and plastic strain responses. This study develops a polygonal cell-based smoothed finite element method (CS-FEM) for nonlinear geotechnical analysis and implements it in ABAQUS through the user element subroutine. The proposed method combines Wachspress interpolation with cell-based strain smoothing, in which the smoothed strain--displacement matrix is evaluated by boundary integration over polygonal smoothing subcells. This formulation avoids direct calculation of shape-function derivatives inside polygonal elements and enables standard polygonal meshes and hybrid quadtree meshes with hanging nodes to be handled in a unified framework. Nonlinear geomaterial behavior is incorporated through incremental elasto-plastic constitutive updates, including the Mohr--Coulomb model and the Duncan--Chang model. Several benchmark and engineering examples, including a perforated plate, strip footing, core rockfill dam, tunnel excavation, and slope stability problems, are presented for verification. The results show that the proposed method accurately predicts displacement, stress, plastic strain, bearing capacity, and factor of safety, while providing improved mesh flexibility and computational efficiency for nonlinear geotechnical analysis.

In this article, we introduce a novel data-dependent Shepard interpolation method inspired by the adaptive strategies proposed in [2]. In this case, as Shepard interpolation does not produce oscillations, our approach has the core objective of reducing the smearing near jump discontinuities in the data in one and two dimensions. While the original work in [2] focuses in on Radial Basis Function (RBF) interpolation, we extend these ideas to the Shepard framework by incorporating a data-dependent adaptation mechanism. Specifically, we modify the classical Shepard interpolation by adaptively adjusting the influence weights based on local smoothness indicators that modify the shape parameter. These indicators, similar to those used in [2], are designed to detect discontinuities: for grid-based data, we use squared undivided second-order differences, and for scattered data, we employ squared least-squares approximations of the Laplacian scaled by the square of the mean local separation of stencil points. The resulting data-dependent weighting scheme forces the kernels close to a discontinuity to behave like a local delta function, effectively reducing the smearing of the discontinuities introduced by the classical Shepard approach. We establish the theoretical foundation of the method, including the properties of the new interpolation and we theoretically prove that the reduction of the smearing of discontinuities is possible. Numerical experiments in one and two dimensions confirm that the proposed data-dependent Shepard interpolation significantly reduces the smearing of jump discontinuities while maintaining high accuracy in smooth regions.

We propose a conservative adaptive rank method for the 1D1V Wigner-Poisson system. The method targets a central challenge in deterministic quantum kinetic simulations: reducing the cost of phase-space evolution while preserving the macroscopic invariants needed for physical fidelity. The scheme combines a sampling-based adaptive rank Wigner-Poisson update [7] with a conservative macroscopic correction. A conservative density-momentum solve provides local macroscopic updates, a Fermi-Dirac-type reconstruction transfers them to the kinetic solution, and a global quadratic moment correction enforces the discrete total energy constraint at the kinetic level. Unlike Maxwell-Boltzmann-type corrections commonly used in classical kinetic settings, the reconstruction uses a Fermi-Dirac-type form motivated by the model's quantum-statistical structure. The corrected state is incorporated into an ACA SVD representation, allowing the numerical rank to adapt to the phase-space complexity generated by the nonlocal Wigner operator and self-consistent Poisson field. Numerical experiments for the two-stream instability, strong Landau damping, and bump-on tail instability show that the method captures benchmark Wigner-Poisson dynamics for several values of the quantum parameter H, maintains bounded adaptive ranks, and preserves the specified global discrete invariants with conservation errors near machine precision. We also compare this formulation, which uses local density-momentum correction plus global total energy correction, with a related globally conservative formulation for mass, momentum, and energy [8]. The two approaches produce nearly identical phase-space and diagnostic results for the periodic benchmark test considered here, indicating that both correction strategies are compatible with adaptive rank compression for Wigner-Poisson dynamics in the tested 1D1V periodic setting.

A class of pseudo-parabolic partial differential equations is considered. We derive a posteriori error bounds for approximations obtained by FEMs in space and a BDF formula in time. The analysis is based on the $C_0$ semigroup theory and an adaptation of the concept of elliptic reconstruction to pseudo-parabolic problems. The analysis is complemented with numerical experiments.

The matrices arising from large scale $N$-body problems can be efficiently represented using hierarchical matrices, whose key idea is that the admissible off-diagonal sub-matrices can be well approximated by low-rank matrices across a hierarchy of matrix partitions. HODLR (Hierarchical Off-Diagonal Low-Rank) matrices are a subclass of hierarchical matrices in which all off-diagonal submatrices at every level of a recursive binary partition are low-rank. In this article, we present a neural network that learns the inverse operation of HODLR matrices based on the fast direct solver for HODLR matrices developed by Ambikasaran and Darve (2013). We further extend the architecture to learn nonlinear solution operators associated with PDEs by replacing some of the linear layers with deep sub-networks. We demonstrate the performance of the proposed architecture by performing a comprehensive set of experiments that include (i) solving a linear problem such as the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind, (ii) solving PDEs such as the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, Burgers' equation, and the steady-state Darcy's flow equation, (iii) generalization study across varying parameter values, (iv) comparing the inference time of the proposed network with the run time of a classical numerical solver, and (v) comparing the proposed network with some of the existing neural operator learning networks.

The stochastic theta method is proposed to approximate invariant measures of stochastic differential equations (SDEs), both of whose drift and diffusion coefficients may grow super-linearly. For the numerical solution generated by the stochastic theta method, we show the existence and uniqueness of the numerical invariant measure first. Then, we prove that the numerical invariant measure is convergent to the exact invariant measure of the underlying SDE. We also provide some numerical simulations to illustrate our theoretical results. This work could be regarded as an extension of the results in [Y. Jiang et al, Numer. Algorithms 83(4)(2020), pp. 1531-1553] to the case of super-linearly growing diffusion coefficient. As the backward Euler-Maruyama (EM) method is a special case of the stochastic theta method, the results derived in this work could also be regarded as a generalization of the results for the backward EM method in [W. Liu et al. Appl. Numer. Math. 184(2023), pp. 137-150] to the stochastic theta method.

We introduce a second-order approximation to the compressible atmospheric Euler equations with gravity that is invariant domain preserving and well-balanced with respect to rest states. The approximation is built upon discrete auxiliary states derived from a hydrostatic reconstruction of the density. These auxiliary states, together with an affine shift of the numerical state, provide local bounds needed for maintaining well-balancing and invariant domain preserving properties of the method. The numerical method is then verified and validated with analytic solutions, well-balancing tests, and typical benchmark problems for atmospheric flows.

We propose and analyze a structure-preserving numerical method for the $2\tfrac{1}{2}$-dimensional (2.5D) electron magnetohydrodynamics system with fractional dissipation on the periodic torus. The method works directly with the magnetic field components and combines this component formulation with the gradient recovery operator of [T. Chu, H. Guo, and Z. Zhang, SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 63 (2025), pp. 23--53]. We establish discrete energy stability for a semi-implicit structure-preserving formulation and use an explicit-Hall integrating-factor implementation for efficient computation on periodic grids. The fractional dissipation is treated exactly in Fourier space, and the in-plane divergence constraint is enforced by a spectral Hodge projection. Numerical experiments demonstrate second-order spatial convergence and stable Hall-driven dynamics across several benchmark tests.

The derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation is a fundamental model for the propagation of nonlinear dispersive waves in, for example, plasma physics and nonlinear optics. In this work, we consider this model on the one-dimensional torus and study a filtered explicit Fourier integrator for the corresponding periodic problem. After applying a periodic gauge transformation, we consider a frequency-truncated model and its filtered exponential-Euler discretization. The main difficulty comes from the derivative cubic nonlinearity in the periodic setting, since local smoothing is unavailable and resonant interactions are stronger than in the non-periodic case. To address this issue, we develop a discrete Bourgain-space framework adapted to the gauge-transformed equation. For initial data $u_0 \in H^s(\mathbb{T})$ with $1/2 < s \le 5/2$, we prove that the numerical error is of order $\mathcal{O}(τ^{s/2-1/4})$ in $H^{1/2}(\mathbb{T})$, where $τ$ denotes the employed time step size. Numerical experiments confirm the predicted convergence behavior and demonstrate the effectiveness of the filtered scheme for rough solutions.

We introduce a new class of numerical integrators for the time integration of non-autonomous linear ordinary differential equations whose coefficient matrix is sparse and evolves within a quadratic matrix Lie group. In contrast to standard Lie group integrators, the proposed methods avoid the evaluation of matrix exponentials acting on vectors and instead rely on solving a sequence of linear systems with sparse coefficient matrices. Moreover, they are well suited for problems arising from unbounded operators, as they inherently produce bounded solutions. We construct optimised schemes of orders four and six and assess their performance on a representative numerical example, demonstrating clear advantages over existing Lie-group integrators.

We develop and analyze a Bregman-projected mirror iteration for low-order regularizations of stationary mean-field game (MFG) systems in their natural Banach space setting. For separable Hamiltonians of the form \(H(x,p,m)=H_0(x,p)-g(m)\), with quadratic or super-quadratic Hamiltonian growth and linear or super-linear density couplings, we formulate a low-order \(\barγ\)-Laplacian regularization of the stationary MFG system as a variational inequality on \(L^{\barβ}(\mathbb T^d)\times W^{1,\barγ}(\mathbb T^d)\). To approximate solutions of this regularized variational inequality, we introduce a Bregman geometry matched to the mixed Lebesgue--Sobolev exponents of the problem and analyze a constrained two-step mirror method with frozen operator evaluation. For the exact constrained iteration and each fixed regularization parameter \(\epsi>0\), we derive a one-step Bregman inequality and use it to prove that the constrained iteration converges strongly to the unique solution of the regularized variational inequality under natural summability conditions on the step sizes. Numerical experiments on one- and two-dimensional models, validated against exact test solutions, illustrate residual decay under mesh refinement and suggest improved practical performance of the two-step implementation in the tested discretizations.

This paper develops an accurate and effective combination of second order backward differentiation time discretization (BDF2) with modular, 2-step nudging-based data assimilation \begin{align} \text{Forecast step: } \quad &\frac{3\widetilde{v}^{n+2}-4v^{n+1}+v^n}{2Δt}+\widetilde{v}^{n+2} \cdot \nabla \widetilde{v}^{n+2} - νΔ\widetilde{v}^{n+2} + \nabla q^{n+2}=f(x) \notag \\ &\nabla \cdot \widetilde{v}^{n+2} = 0 \notag \\ \text{Analysis step: } \quad &\frac{3v^{n+2}-3\widetilde{v}^{n+2}}{2Δt}-χI_H(u(t^{n+2})-v^{n+2})=0. \notag \end{align} If $I_H=I_H^2$, the analysis step can be made explicit, taking the form \begin{align} v^{n+2}=\widetilde{v}^{n+2}+\frac{2Δtχ}{3+2Δtχ}I_H(u^{n+2}-\widetilde{v}^{n+2}). \notag \end{align} This implies the analysis step has the stability property of an implicit step and lower complexity than an explicit analysis step. Stability and error estimates for the BDF2 scheme are presented along with their proofs. Numerical experiments are conducted to assess the performance of BDF2 modular assimilation algorithm. The results of the experiments support the conclusion that modular data assimilation has comparable accuracy to standard, fully coupled data assimilation while greatly reducing computational complexity and cost.

In this work we investigate the role of neural architectures as implicit functional priors in control problems governed by ordinary differential equations. Rather than focusing on highly complex problems, our objective is to investigate architecture-dependent effects in controlled dynamical systems within the simplest physically interpretable settings possible. In particular, we study a controlled linear RLC electrical circuit and a nonlinear Duffing-type dynamical system. Both systems are analyzed first through classical optimal-control formulations and later through PINN-based approaches. We compare different combinations of multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) and Fourier-based KAN-like architectures, and analyze their influence on the resulting controls. The numerical experiments suggest that different architectural choices systematically generate qualitatively distinct controls, even under identical governing equations, loss functionals, initial and target states, training parameters and physical constraints. Significant differences appear in the spectral structure, smoothness, energy distribution, and phase-space behavior of the learned solutions. A central observation of this work is the emergence of a functional specialization phenomenon when the neural architectures are allowed sufficient freedom to shape the structure of the learned controls. More specifically, in the systems considered here, Fourier-based architectures tend to produce trajectories with richer oscillatory content, whereas smoother low-frequency-biased architectures tend to generate more regular and energetically efficient controls. This suggests that different functional components of the control problem may be handled more efficiently by different neural architectures, leading to an implicit specialization between state representation and control generation.

We develop a structure-oriented randomized neural network framework, termed SO-RaNN, for the Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) system and the Poisson-Nernst-Planck-Navier-Stokes (PNP-NS) system. The decoupled linearized subproblems are solved iteratively by randomized neural networks in a space-time framework. For the concentration variables, a pointwise cut-off is used to enforce positivity at the value level, and discrete mass-scaling factors are computed at selected correction instants and interpolated in time, so as to ensure exact mass matching at those instants and to promote approximate mass preservation between them. To introduce an auxiliary discrete dissipation mechanism, we further employ an SAV-type post-processing correction, which yields monotonicity of the SAV auxiliary variable under the ideal SAV update. For the PNP-NS system, a structure-preserving randomized neural network (SP-RaNN) is used for the velocity field, so that the velocity approximation satisfies the incompressibility constraint pointwise by construction. On the theoretical side, we derive residual-based estimates for the raw, uncorrected RaNN solvers of the linearized subproblems, formulate a conditional local-in-time convergence result for the raw outer Picard iteration of the PNP system, and analyze the value-level positivity correction together with the mass-correction and SAV post-processing steps. For the PNP-NS system, we establish an approximation result for the SP-RaNN space and provide a conditional error statement for the corresponding linearized Oseen-type problem. Numerical experiments demonstrate approximation accuracy in the source-driven manufactured tests and illustrate the intended value-level positivity correction, selected-time mass matching, computed free-energy curves based on the final gauge-fixed potential, and divergence-free approximation in benchmark tests.

Efficient and provably accurate partitioned methods for fluid-poroelastic structure interaction remain challenging because explicit treatment of the Stokes-Biot interface coupling condition can compromise stability. In this work, we develop and analyze a fully discrete, second-order, explicit splitting scheme for the time-dependent Stokes-Biot problem on fixed domains. The method combines BDF2 time stepping with second-order Adams-Bashforth extrapolation of interface data through a Robin reformulation, yielding a partitioned algorithm in which the Stokes and Biot subproblems are solved independently and in parallel at each time step. The main analytical contribution is a rigorous stability and error analysis for this second-order explicit coupling strategy. Using BDF2 energy identities, a sharp decomposition of the extrapolated interface terms, and discrete trace estimates, we prove a closed stability bound under a parabolic CFL condition. We then derive an a priori error estimate through a projection-based framework using a Fortin projection for the fluid variables and Ritz-type projections for the poroelastic variables. The analysis identifies consistency defects from BDF2 time discretization, Adams-Bashforth interface extrapolation, and the projected kinematic relation. It shows that the total errors in fluid velocity, structure velocity, pore pressure, and elastic displacement are bounded by C times the sum of the kth power of the mesh size and the square of the time step, for k from 1 to 3, in bulk energy norms. Numerical experiments with manufactured solutions confirm second-order temporal convergence and optimal-order spatial convergence. We also include a moving-domain example with Navier-Stokes fluid flow, demonstrating applicability beyond the fixed-domain Stokes-Biot setting analyzed.

Density-potential inversion for periodic systems within Moreau-Yosida-regularised density-functional theory is investigated, both theoretically and numerically. We develop the framework in a periodic homogeneous Sobolev space and use it to recover the exchange-correlation potential of Kohn-Sham theory through a limiting procedure. A key analytical ingredient is the proof of lower semicontinuity of the non-interacting kinetic-energy functional in the chosen topology. The proximal mapping, together with its algorithmic evaluation, plays a central role in the resulting inversion scheme. Numerical experiments illustrate the performance and properties of the method for both the Kohn-Sham and Gross-Pitaevskii equations.

Both tensor trains (TTs) and quantum states provide compressed representations of grid-structured data with potentially exponential compression power. We present a unified framework for upsampling data encoded in vector amplitudes, with efficient realizations in both classical TT and quantum settings. Starting from an \(n\)-core TT or an \(n\)-qubit state on a coarse grid with \(2^n\) points, the construction produces an \((n+m)\)-core TT or \((n+m)\)-qubit state on a finer grid with \(2^{n+m}\) points. In the TT setting, it supports interpolation, quasi-interpolation, augmentation, and synthesis through efficient low-rank contractions, with the added \(m\) cores retaining constant rank. For function-value encodings, the resulting interpolation satisfies an \(\ell^2\)-error bound independent of the number of added grid points, achieves exponential compression at fixed accuracy, and has a logarithmic complexity in the number of grid points. In the quantum setting, the refined state is prepared by a \(\mathrm{poly}(n,m)\)-size circuit using \(\log(p+1)\) ancillas, where \(p\) controls the smoothness of the quasi-interpolant; the corresponding error scales quadratically with the initial grid spacing. We validate our framework for tensor networks in one-, two-, and three-dimensional examples, including functions, derivatives, airfoil masks, and synthetic random fields such as three-dimensional turbulence. In particular, fractal fields can be generated directly in TT format with logarithmic memory and runtime. These results open a practical route to multiscale solvers, generative models, and geometry-aware algorithms on tensor-network and quantum platforms, with potential applications in scientific simulation, imaging, and real-time graphics.

Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) solve Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) by embedding physical laws into neural network training. However, their performance suffers from unstable convergence, training plateaus, and strong sensitivity to architectural and optimization hyperparameters due to the highly non-convex and multi-term structure of the physics-informed loss. In this setting, the outer-loop hyperparameter search is a noisy and black-box optimization problem over heterogeneous parameters, where classical local or gradient-based strategies are easily trapped in suboptimal regions. Evolutionary algorithms, with their population-based exploration and ability to handle mixed, non-differentiable search spaces, provide a more robust mechanism for discovering promising configurations. We propose and investigate a two-stage approach based on evolutionary algorithms that combines exploration and exploitation parts of PINNs training to improve solution accuracy and robustness under fixed computational budgets. In the first stage, we perform low-fidelity training runs with truncated epochs to rapidly screen candidate configurations, treating hyperparameter selection as a black-box outer-loop problem. In the second stage, only the most promising candidates are fully trained with standard gradient-based optimizers to refine the solution. Evaluated on three popular problems, namely Advection, Klein-Gordon and Helmholtz equations, our method consistently outperforms standard training and achieves significantly lower mean error within constrained computational resources.

Randomized sketching is a core primitive in randomized numerical linear algebra. On modern hardware architectures, in particular on GPUs, the performance of sparse sketches is limited by memory traffic and atomic accumulation rather than floating-point throughput. This makes sketching a natural target for mixed precision, provided that low-precision accumulation does not degrade the embedding quality. We study mixed-precision GPU implementations of sparse oblivious subspace embeddings, focusing on a SparseStack generalization of the GPU CountSketch kernel of Higgins et al. SparseStack improves embedding quality relative to CountSketch on coherent inputs, but its additional nonzeros per column increase atomic-update contention and reduce throughput. We therefore implement FP16 SparseStack variants using deterministic round-to-nearest, exact stochastic rounding, and dithered rounding, and compare them with FP32 SparseStack, CountSketch, mixed-precision CountSketch, and FlashSketch. Our main empirical finding is that, for the tested regimes, SparseStack embedding quality is insensitive to the FP16 rounding rule. Deterministic, stochastic, and dithered rounding FP16 SparseStack produce nearly identical subspace distortion and sketch-and-solve least-squares accuracy across incoherent, coherent, and adversarial test problems. The dominant accuracy factor is the sketch distribution rather than the quantization rule: SparseStack variants substantially improve distortion on coherent inputs, while all methods behave similarly on incoherent inputs. Since deterministic rounding has the lowest overhead, it provides the best performance--accuracy tradeoff among the FP16 SparseStack variants.

Partial differential equations (PDEs) play a central role in modeling complex physical, biological, and engineering systems. While traditional numerical solvers are robust, they often incur prohibitive computational costs due to mesh dependencies, whereas recent Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) offer a mesh-free alternative but frequently suffer from slow convergence and optimization instability. To bridge this gap, this article proposes the Physics-Informed Broad Learning System (PIBLS), a novel backpropagation-free framework that reformulates PDE solving as a direct least-squares optimization. We improved an algorithm within this framework to handle nonlinear PDEs efficiently and provide a rigorous mathematical proof establishing the universal approximation property of PIBLS for these equations. Experiments on linear and nonlinear PDEs demonstrate that PIBLS is one to three orders of magnitude faster than conventional PINNs while achieving significantly higher solution accuracy. This framework provides a computationally efficient paradigm for scientific machine learning, offering a practical, high-speed alternative for real-time simulation and design optimization tasks.

Identification conditions describe the computability of a target query or parameter of interest as a function of the type and amount of information available. In causal identification, this information is often expressed in the form of a causal graph, and data are observed or collected for some subset of variables in the graph. Target queries may be for a single effect alone or for a class of effects in a given model. The derivation of an identification algorithm then defines mathematically the process by which the desired causal effect(s) can be uniquely determined, theoretically, in expectation. Identifiability in expectation, or 'theoretical identifiability,' generally assumes asymptotic properties, infinite data, or other mathematically idealized conditions. In this paper, we explore a fundamental distinction between this theoretical, idealized notion of identifiability and a proposed alternative that is computation-bound. The framework we propose - 'computational identifiability' - is to instead define a finite computational search procedure for an empirical estimator. If this process finds an estimator empirically, within a desired error tolerance, then identifiability is satisfied, conditional on the specified assumptions of the search (i.e., a prior distribution over the parameters) and conditional on the search procedure itself. Through several experiments, we demonstrate how this framework allows us to answer fine-grained, practical identification questions, such as identification with small finite samples, with ambiguous graphical criteria, with mixed observational-interventional data, and across counterfactual data and estimands. Code is available at https://github.com/lbynum/metadentify.

In this article we revisit regularity results for eigenfunctions in the discrete spectrum of the electronic Schrödinger equation and study their consequences for approximation complexity. In particular, for the convergence to the complete basis set limit, it can be shown that the curse of dimensionality in the leading algebraic exponent can be mitigated. That is, for general sparse grid constructions, the main term of the convergence rate with respect to the number of degrees of freedom is independent of the number of electrons. These insights indicate potential benefits for classical numerical solvers of the electronic Schrödinger equation and also for quantum-computing approaches through new qubit-efficient wavefunction encodings.

Mathematicians understand a PDE solution through mathematical structures rather than tables of computed values. Historically, this has been the product of mathematical analysis, carried out by hand for each problem individually. Neither numerical simulation nor neural networks produce those structures directly. We propose Agentic Symbolic Search (ASYS), a prior-guided framework in which an agent translates PDE theory, public problem constraints, and accumulated search experience into testable differentiable symbolic programs. The mathematical forms are refined under evolutionary search, while their continuous parameters are fit by gradient-based optimization. This makes the search an automated form of inductive-bias injection rather than blind symbolic regression. For problems with known analytical forms, ASYS recovers these forms naturally; for other problems, ASYS constructs analytical approximations which can guide mathematicians toward further analysis. In our experiments, across five problems spanning bounded dynamics, finite-time blow-up, and free-boundary focusing, ASYS produces interpretable representations, including a geometric interface formula for Allen-Cahn 2D dynamics and a nine-parameter contraction law for Keller-Segel chemotactic blow-up, in settings where no closed-form description was previously available. ASYS shows the possibility of a new paradigm for characterizing PDE solutions, beyond handcrafted analytical solutions, mesh-based numerical solutions, and neural network approximations.

Planar 3D models of hydraulic fracturing provide a practical balance between models with restrictive geometric assumptions and fully 3D simulators, capturing fractures with arbitrary planar footprints at moderate computational cost. Nevertheless, applications such as treatment design optimization and mini-frac test interpretation require large ensembles of simulations, for which the cost of planar 3D models remains a significant bottleneck. This work presents acceleration strategies for the planar 3D Implicit Level Set Algorithm (ILSA) to reduce simulation runtime while preserving numerical accuracy. A unified planar 3D ILSA scheme that consolidates the nested loops of the elastohydrodynamic solver and the front tracking algorithm into a single iterative process is introduced. A matrix splitting approach is applied to the linearized elastohydrodynamic system, moving the dense part of the elasticity operator to the right-hand side and yielding a sparse system matrix that can be solved more efficiently. Anderson acceleration is incorporated into the solution of the elastohydrodynamic system to improve convergence under varying fracture geometry. Additionally, a predictor--corrector scheme is examined with the proposed methods to assess their combined effect. Each technique is evaluated individually and in combination on both the reference and unified planar 3D ILSA schemes across five benchmark cases. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the unified scheme alone delivers an average 2.5x speedup, reaching 5.7x for the sandglass geometry. The combined application of all techniques achieves an average 4x speedup and up to 11x for the sandglass case, with the relative discrepancy in fracture aperture below 5% compared with the reference scheme.

We study dynamical orthogonal (DO) approximations of stochastic differential equations and investigate their long-time behaviour. The DO formulation represents the solution by a low-rank decomposition and leads to a coupled system consisting of an evolution equation on the Stiefel manifold and a reduced stochastic process. We establish the well-posedness of the strong DO system and derive quantitative error estimates between the original stochastic differential equation and its low-rank approximation in the Wasserstein distance. Our main contribution is the analysis of invariant probability measures for the DO dynamics. Under suitable dissipativity, Lipschitz continuity, and non-degeneracy assumptions on the coefficients, we prove the existence of an invariant probability measure for the strong DO system. The proof combines uniform moment estimates, a Krylov--Bogoliubov argument for an associated frozen system, and a Kakutani-Fan-Glicksberg fixed-point theorem to recover the self-consistent dynamics. We further show that the induced low-rank process admits an invariant probability measure and discuss the structure of invariant measures through several illustrative examples. These results provide a rigorous foundation for the use of dynamical low-rank approximations in the approximation of long-time statistical properties of stochastic dynamical systems.

In this paper, we introduce a new semi-discrete modulus of smoothness, which generalizes the definition given by Kolomoitsev and Lomako (KL) in 2023 (in the paper published in the J. Approx. Theory), and we establish very general one- and two- sided error estimates under non-restrictive assumptions for pointwise linear operators. The proposed results have been proved exploiting the regularization and approximation properties of certain Steklov integrals introduced by Sendov and Popov in 1983. By the definition of semi-discrete moduli of smoothness here proposed, we derive sharper estimates than those that can be achieved by the classical averaged moduli of smoothness ($τ$-moduli). Furthermore, a Rathore-type theorem is established, and a new notion of K-functional is also introduced showing its equivalence with the semi-discrete modulus of smoothness and its realization. One-sided estimates of approximation can be established for classical operators on bounded domains, such as the Bernstein polynomials. In the case of approximation operators on the whole real line, one-sided estimates can be achieved, e.g., for the Shannon sampling (cardinal) series, as well as for the so-called generalized sampling operators.

We introduce the notion of Karamata regular operators, which is a notion of regularity that is suitable for obtaining concrete convergence rates for common fixed point problems. This provides a broad framework that includes, but goes beyond, Hölderian error bounds and Hölder regular operators. By concrete, we mean that the rates we obtain are explicitly expressed in terms of a function of the iteration number $k$ instead, of say, a function of the iterate $x^k$. While it is well-known that under Hölderian-like assumptions many algorithms converge linearly/sublinearly (depending on the exponent), little it is known when the underlying problem data does not satisfy Hölderian assumptions, which may happen if a problem involves exponentials and logarithms. Our main innovation is the usage of the theory of regularly varying functions which we showcase by obtaining concrete convergence rates for quasi-cylic algorithms in non-Hölderian settings. This includes certain rates that are neither sublinear nor linear but sit somewhere in-between, including a case where the rate is expressed via the Lambert W function. Finally, we connect our discussion to o-minimal geometry and show that, under mild assumptions, definable operators in any o-minimal structure are always Karamata regular.

In this paper, we propose a neural multiscale decomposition method (NeuralMD) for solving the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation (NKGE) with a dimensionless parameter $\varepsilon\in(0,1]$ from the relativistic regime to the nonrelativistic limit regime. The solution of the NKGE propagates waves with wavelength at $O(1)$ and $O(\varepsilon^2)$ in space and time, respectively, which brings the oscillation in time. Existing collocation-based methods for solving this equation lead to spectral bias and propagation failure. To mitigate the spectral bias induced by high-frequency time oscillation, we employ a multiscale time integrator (MTI) to absorb the time oscillation into the phase. This decomposes the NKGE into a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with wave operator (NLSW) with well-prepared initial data and a remainder equation with small initial data. As $\varepsilon \to 0$, the NKGE converges to the NLSW at rate $O(\varepsilon^{2})$, and the contribution of the remainder equation becomes negligible. Furthermore, to alleviate propagation failure caused by medium-frequency time oscillation, we propose a gated gradient correlation correction strategy to enforce temporal coherence in collocation-based methods. As a result, the approximation of the remainder term is no longer affected by propagation failure. Comparative experiments with existing collocation-based methods demonstrate the superior performance of our method for solving the NKGE with various regularities of initial data over the whole regime.

This letter presents a novel approach for \mbox{efficiently} computing time-index powered weighted sums of the form $\sum_{n=0}^{N-1} n^{K} v[n]$ using cascaded accumulators. Traditional direct computation requires $K{\times}N$ general multiplications, which become prohibitive for large $N$, while alternative strategies based on lookup tables or signal reversal require storing entire data blocks. By exploiting accumulator properties, the proposed method eliminates the need for such storage and reduces the multiplicative cost to only $K{+}1$ constant multiplications, enabling efficient real-time implementation. The approach is particularly useful when such sums need to be efficiently computed in sample-by-sample processing systems.
