It is well known that for the heat equation on a rectangle, the finite difference alternating direction implicit (ADI) method converges with order two. For the first time in the literature, we bound errors of the finite difference ADI method for the heat equation on a convex set for which it is possible to construct a partition consistent with the boundary. Numerical results indicate that the ADI method may also work for some nonconvex sets for which it is possible to construct a partition consistent with the boundary.

Building on techniques recently introduced by the second author, and further developed by the first author, we show that a positive integer $N$ may be rigorously and deterministically factored into primes in at most [ Oleft( frac{N^{1/5} log^{16/5} N}{(loglog N)^{3/5}}right) ] bit operations. This improves on the previous best known result by a factor of $(log log N)^{3/5}$.

This paper is concerned with the recovery of (approximate) solutions to parabolic problems from incomplete and possibly inconsistent observational data, given on a time-space cylinder that is a strict subset of the computational domain under consideration. Unlike previous approaches to this and related problems our starting point is a regularized least squares formulation in a continuous infinite-dimensional setting that is based on stable variational time-space formulations of the parabolic PDE. This allows us to derive a priori as well as a posteriori error bounds for the recovered states with respect to a certain reference solution. In these bounds the regularization parameter is disentangled from the underlying discretization. An important ingredient for the derivation of a posteriori bounds is the construction of suitable Fortin operators which allow us to control oscillation errors stemming from the discretization of dual norms. Moreover, the variational framework allows us to contrive preconditioners for the discrete problems whose application can be performed in linear time, and for which the condition numbers of the preconditioned systems are uniformly proportional to that of the regularized continuous problem. In particular, we provide suitable stopping criteria for the iterative solvers based on the a posteriori error bounds. The presented numerical experiments quantify the theoretical findings and demonstrate the performance of the numerical scheme in relation with the underlying discretization and regularization.

We introduce a novel class of time integrators for dispersive equations which allow us to reproduce the dynamics of the solution from the classical $ varepsilon = 1$ up to long wave limit regime $ varepsilon ll 1 $ on the natural time scale of the PDE $t= mathcal{O}(frac{1}{varepsilon})$. Most notably our new schemes converge with rates at order $tau varepsilon$ over long times $t= frac{1}{varepsilon}$.

We enumerate the 15768 perfect groups of order up to 2·10, up to isomorphism, thus also completing the missing cases in [HP89]. The work supplements the by now wellunderstood computer classifications of solvable groups, illustrating scope and feasibility of the enumeration process for nonsolvable groups. The algorithmic setup for constructing finite groups of a given order, up to isomorphism, has been well-established, both in theory and in practice, for the construction of groups [BEO02, EHH17]. It proceeds inductively, by constructing extensions of known groups of smaller orders and eliminating isomorphic candidates when they arise. Due to limitations in implementations of underlying routines, this however had been done so far mostly for solvable groups. The aim of this paper is to show the feasibility of generalizing this approach to the case of nonsolvable groups. Instrumental in this has been the calculation of 2-cohomology through confluent rewriting systems, generalizing the method [HEO05, §8.7.2] for solvable groups that uses a PC presentation. The construction process is illustrated by revisiting the enumeration of perfect groups that was started in [HP89] and to extend it to order 2 ·10. In total we find 15768 perfect groups, seeded from the 66 nonabelian simple groups of order up to 2 · 10. Compared with [HP89], this newly provides explicit lists of the groups of orders 61440, 86016, 122880, 172032, 245760, 344064, 368640, 491520, 688128, 737280, 983040 that were omitted in their classification of groups of order up to 10. In this range, the calculations also found five groups (in addition to two groups found already in 2005 by Jack Schmidt) that had been overlooked in [HP89]. Besides serving as examples for testing conjectures, such lists of groups are used as seed in algorithms for the calculation of subgroups of a given finite group [Neu60, CCH01, Hul13], or indeed for the construction of all groups of a given order. All calculations were done using the system GAP [GAP20], which also serves as repository of the resulting group data. The program that performed the classification is available at https://github.com/hulpke/perfect and should allow for easy generalization or extension. In addition to the actual classification result, this work also serves as a prototype of enumeration of nonsolvable groups, extending the work of [BEO02] to the nonsolvable case.

In 2007, Grytczuk conjecture that for any sequence (li)i≥1 of alphabets of size 3 there exists a square-free infinite word w such that for all i, the ith letter of w belongs to li. The result of Thue of 1906 implies that there is an infinite square-free word if all the li are identical. On the other, hand Grytczuk, Przyby lo and Zhu showed in 2011 that it also holds if the li are of size 4 instead of 3. In this article, we first show that if the lists are of size 4, the number of square-free words is at least 2.45 (the previous similar bound was 2). We then show our main result: we can construct such a square-free word if the lists are subsets of size 3 of the same alphabet of size 4. Our proof also implies that there are at least 1.25 square-free words of length n for any such list assignment. This proof relies on the existence of a set of coefficients verified with a computer. We suspect that the full conjecture could be resolved by this method with a much more powerful computer (but we might need to wait a few decades for such a computer to be available).

Subdivision schemes are widely used in numerical mathematics such as signal/image approximation, analysis and control of data or numerical analysis. However, to develop their full power, subdivision schemes should be incorporated into a multiresolution analysis that, mimicking wavelet analyses, provides a multi-scale decomposition of a function, a curve, or a surface. The ingredients needed to define a multiresolution analysis associated to a subdivision scheme are a decimation scheme and detail operators. Their construction is not straightforward as soon as the subdivision scheme is non-interpolatory. This paper is devoted to the construction of decimation schemes and detail operators compatible with general subdivision schemes, including non-linear ones. Analysis of the performances of the constructed analyses is carried out. Some numerical applications are presented in the framework of image approximation.
