Discretizations of Nonlinear and Multiscale Wave-Type Problems

Organizers of this minisymposium are

This minisymposium is about theoretical and computational aspects of numerical methods for partial differential equations that model wave propagation in complex media. Examples are classical wave equations, Schrödinger equations, Maxwell- and Helmholtz-type equations involving possibly highly heterogeneous coefficients and/or nonlinearities. These problems require special treatment in order to obtain reliable and efficient approximations of the respective solutions. In this minisymposium, we aim to bring together experts that work on different aspects of these research questions.
