چکیده

We analyse the linear kinetic transport equation with a BGK relaxation operator. We study the large scale hyperbolic limit (t, x) → (t/ε, x/ε). We derive a new type of limiting Hamilton-Jacobi equation, which is analogous to the classical eikonal equation derived from the heat equation with small diffusivity. We prove well-posedness of the phase problem and convergence towards the viscosity solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. This is a preliminary work before analysing the propagation of reaction fronts in kinetic equations. Résumé Une équation eikonale cinétique. Nous analysons une équation cinétique linéaire de transport avec un opérateur de relaxation BGK. Nous étudions la limite hyperbolique de grande échelle (t, x) → (t/ε, x/ε). Nous obtenons à la limite une nouvelle équation de Hamilton-Jacobi, qui est l’analogue de l’équation eikonale classique obtenue à partir de l’équation de la chaleur avec petite diffusion. Nous démontrons le caractère bien posé de l’équation vérifiée par la phase, ainsi que la convergence vers une solution de viscosité de l’équation de Hamilton-Jacobi. Ceci est un travail préliminaire en vue d’analyser la propagation de fronts de réaction pour des équations cinétiques.

Fast sweeping method for the factored eikonal equation

We develop a fast sweeping method for the factored eikonal equation. By decomposing the solution of a general eikonal equation as the product of two factors: the first factor is the solution to a simple eikonal equation (such as distance) or a previously computed solution to an approximate eikonal equation. The second factor is a necessary modification/correction. Appropriate discretization and...

A fast marching algorithm for the factored eikonal equation

The eikonal equation is instrumental in many applications in several fields ranging from computer vision to geoscience. This equation can be efficiently solved using the iterative Fast Sweeping (FS) methods and the direct Fast Marching (FM) methods. However, when used for a point source, the original eikonal equation is known to yield inaccurate numerical solutions, because of a singularity at ...

A Paraxial Formulation for the Viscosity Solution of Quasi-P Eikonal Equations

Stationary quasi-P eikonal equations, stationary Hamilton-Jacobi equations, arise from the asymptotic approximation of anisotropic wave propagation. A paraxial formulation of the quasi-P eikonal equation results in a paraxial quasi-P eikonal equation, an evolution Hamilton-Jacobi equation in a preferred direction, which provides a fast and efficient way for computing viscosity solutions of quas...

A regularizing property of the 2D-eikonal equation

We prove that any 2-dimensional solution ψ ∈ W 1+ 1 3,3 loc of the eikonal equation has locally Lipschitz gradient ∇ψ except at a locally finite number of vortex-points. A related regularizing effect is also obtained for general solutions of the Burgers’ equation.

High-Order Factorization Based High-Order Hybrid Fast Sweeping Methods for Point-Source Eikonal Equations

The solution for the eikonal equation with a point-source condition has an upwind singularity at the source point as the eikonal solution behaves like a distance function at and near the source. As such, the eikonal function is not differentiable at the source so that all formally high-order numerical schemes for the eikonal equation yield first-order convergence and relatively large errors. Th...
