报告简介：Many complex nonlinear systems have intrinsic structures such as energy dissipation or conservation, and/or positivity/maximum principle preserving. It is desirable, sometimes necessary, to preserve these structures in a numerical scheme.

I will present some recent advances on using the scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) approach and Lagrange multiplier approach to develop highly efficient and accurate structure preserving schemes for a large class of complex nonlinear systems. These schemes can preserve energy dissipation/conservation as well as other global constraints and/or are positivity/bound preserving, only require solving decoupled linear equations with constant coefficients at each time step, and can achieve higher-order accuracy.

However, a direct application of the SAV approach will not preserve positivity or maximum principle. In the second lecture,I will then present two strategies, one based on convex splitting and the other based on SAV with transformation,to construct efficient energy stable and positivity preserving schemes for certain nonlinear evolution systems, such as the Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) equation and Keller-Segel equation, whose solutions remain to be positive.

报告简介：In certain applications,2nd-order elliptic problems lack divergent forms due to regularity restrictions, necessitating the direct discretization of the2nd-order derivatives. In this work, we develop a new Petrov-Galerkin method that employs a C1-conforming finite element for the trial space and an L2-discontinuous element for the test space. We demonstrate that the numerical solution obtained through this new method converges to the exact solution with an order of 2k-2(where k > 2 is the polynomial degree) at the nodal points for both function value and the gradient, assuming a rectangular mesh.
