The Gauss Center research in multiscale scientific computation
Achi Brandt
Abstract
The recent research of the author and his collaborators on multiscale computational methods is reported, emphasizing main ideas and inter-relations between various fields, and listing the relevant bibliography. The reported areas include: top-efficiency multigrid methods in fluid dynamics; atmospheric data assimilation; PDE solvers on unbounded domains; wave/ray methods for highly indefinite equations; many-eigenfunction problems and ab-initio quantum chemistry; fast evaluation of integral transforms on adaptive grids; multigrid Dirac solvers; fast inverse-matrix and determinant updates; multiscale Monte-Carlo methods in statistical physics; molecular mechanics (including fast force summation, fast macromolecular energy minimization, Monte-Carlo methods at equilibrium and the combination of small-scale equilibrium with large-scale dynamics); image processing (edge detection and segmentation); and tomography.
