The Generalized Scalar Auxiliary Variable Method for the Time-Dependent Ginzburg-Landau Equations

Speaker:Zhiyong Si, Professor

Event Time:9:30 AM, November 1st

Location:Conference Room C-105, Science Building

Lecture Content:

In this talk, we present a generalized scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) method for the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations. The backward Euler method is employed to discretize the temporal derivative of the equations. This method decouples and linearizes the system to avoid solving nonlinear equations at each step. Theoretical analysis demonstrates that the generalized SAV method can preserve the maximum bound principle and energy stability, which is confirmed by numerical results. It also shows that the numerical algorithm is stable.
