Ujjwal Koley (University of Würzburg) : Operator splitting methods for Korteweg de-Vries (KdV) equation

Dr. Ujjwal Koley from University of Würzburg, is going to talk about Operator splitting methods for Korteweg de-Vries (KdV) equation

Abstract: We consider the KdV equation used for modeling, e.g., water waves in a narrow channel. The time evolution is described by a quadratic
(Burgers’) plus a linear (Airy) term. The aim of this talk is to show different splitting method converge with the expected rate if the initial data is sufficiently smooth. We also present a proof of convergence of a fully discrete finite difference scheme for KdV equation.
