A sparse spectral method on a class of domains bounded by planar algebraic curves

Jiajie Yao, Marco Fasondini, Sheehan Olver

We develop a sparse spectral method for solving partial differential equations on a class of two-dimensional geometries bounded by algebraic curves. The numerical method uses gener…

The QR factorization of a banded-plus-semiseparable matrix is computable in linear complexity with Householder reflections

Tao Chen, Sheehan Olver

We show that the QR factorization of a banded-plus-semiseparable (BPS) matrix is computable in optimal linear complexity with respect to the discretization size by showing that the…

Orthogonal polynomials for the de Rham complex on the disk and cylinder

Sheehan Olver

This paper constructs polynomial bases that capture the structure of the de Rham complex with boundary conditions in disks and cylinders (both periodic and finite) in a way that re…

Newtonian potentials of Legendre polynomials on rectangles have displacement structure

Sheehan Olver

Particular solutions of the Poisson equation can be constructed via Newtonian potentials, integrals involving the corresponding Green's function which in two-dimensions has a logar…

A sparse -finite element method for piecewise-smooth differential equations with periodic boundary conditions

Daniel VandenHeuvel, Sheehan Olver

We develop an efficient -finite element method for piecewise-smooth differential equations with periodic boundary conditions, using orthogonal polynomials defined on circular a…

Parallelisation of partial differential equations via representation theory

Sheehan Olver

Incorporating symmetries into the numerical solution of differential equations has been a mainstay of research over the last 40 years, however, one aspect is less known and under-u…
