Host: Mathematical Modelling Centre at the University of Leicester
Homepage: http://www.maths.warwick.ac.uk/~mark/symposium/
Description:
Geometric (symplectic, reversible) integrators, multiple time-scale integrators (multiple
timestepping mollified methods, reversible averaging), methods for treating close
approaches in Coulombic systems, symplectic correction methods, adaptive geometric
integrators, individual timestep methods, backward error analysis of geometric
integrators, and switching methods.
Several speakers will discuss recent variational approaches, in particular as concerns
their practical implementation and application.
Connections to other related topics, such as Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics, which
often includes a gravitational component, will also be discussed.
