Final Program Final Program The SIAM Conference on the Life Sciences is sponsored by the SIAM Activity Group on Life Sciences (SIAG/LS) The SIAM Activity Group on the Life Sciences was established to foster the application of mathematics to the life sciences and research in mathematics that leads to new methods and techniques useful in the life sciences. The life sciences have become quantitative as new technologies facilitate collection and analysis of vast amounts of data ranging from complete genomic sequences of organisms to satellite imagery of forest landscapes on continental scales. Computers enable the study of complex models of biological processes. The activity group brings together researchers who seek to develop and apply mathematical and computational methods in all areas of the life sciences. It provides a forum that cuts across disciplines to catalyze mathematical research relevant to the life sciences and rapid diffusion of advances in mathematical and computational methods.

  • Conservative High Order Semi-Lagrangian Finite Difference WENO Methods for Advection in Incompressible Flow Jing-Mei Qiu1 and Ch
    Conservative high order semi-Lagrangian finite difference WENO methods for advection in incompressible flow Jing-Mei Qiu1 and Chi-Wang Shu 2 Abstract In this paper, we propose a semi-Lagrangian finite difference formulation for approximat- ing conservative form of advection equations with general variable coefficients. Compared with the traditional semi-Lagrangian finite difference schemes [4, 21], which approximate the advective form of the equation via direct characteristics tracing, the scheme proposed in this paper approximates the conservative form of the equation. This essential difference makes the proposed scheme naturally conservative for equations with general variable coef- ficients. The proposed conservative semi-Lagrangian finite difference framework is coupled with high order essentially non-oscillatory (ENO) or weighted ENO (WENO) reconstructions to achieve high order accuracy in smooth parts of the solution and to capture sharp inter- faces without introducing spurious oscillations. The scheme is extended to high dimensional problems by Strang splitting. The performance of the proposed schemes is demonstrated by linear advection, rigid body rotation and swirling deformation. As the information is propa- gating along characteristics, the proposed scheme does not have CFL time step restriction of the Eulerian method, allowing for a more efficient numerical realization for many application problems. Keywords: advection in incompressible flow; conservative scheme; semi-Lagrangian meth- ods; WENO reconstruction. 1Department of Mathematical and Computer Science, Colorado School of Mines, Golden, 80401.

HARPER LANGSTON, LESLIE GREENGARD AND DENIS ZORIN vol. 6 no. 1 2011 mathematical sciences publishers COMM. APP. MATH. AND COMP. SCI. Vol. 6, No. 1, 2011 msp A FREE-SPACE ADAPTIVE FMM-BASED PDE SOLVER IN THREE DIMENSIONS M. HARPER LANGSTON, LESLIE GREENGARD AND DENIS ZORIN We present a kernel-independent, adaptive fast multipole method (FMM) of arbi- trary order accuracy for solving elliptic PDEs in three dimensions with radiation and periodic boundary conditions. The algorithm requires only the ability to evaluate the Green’s function for the governing equation and a representation of the source distribution (the right-hand side) that can be evaluated at arbitrary points. The performance is accelerated in three ways. First, we construct a piecewise polynomial approximation of the right-hand side and compute far-field expansions in the FMM from the coefficients of this approximation. Second, we precompute tables of quadratures to handle the near-field interactions on adaptive octree data structures, keeping the total storage requirements in check through the exploitation of symmetries. Third, we employ shared-memory parallelization methods and load-balancing techniques to accelerate the major algorithmic loops of the FMM. We present numerical examples for the Laplace, modified Helmholtz and Stokes equations. 1. Introduction Many problems in scientific computing call for the efficient solution to linear partial differential equations with constant coefficients. On regular grids with separable Dirichlet, Neumann or periodic boundary conditions, such equations can be solved using fast, direct methods.

The primary mission of the IMA is to foster research of a truly interdisciplinary nature, establishing links between mathematics of the highest caliber and important scientific and technological problems from other disciplines and industries. To this end, the IMA organizes a wide variety of programs, ranging from short intense workshops in areas of exceptional interest and opportunity to extensive thematic programs lasting a year. IMA Volumes are used to communicate results of these programs that we believe are of particular value to the broader scientific community.
