Gradient stability of high-order BDF methods and some applications

Abstract: It is well-known that the backward differentation formulae (BDF) of order 1, 2 and 3 are gradient stable. This means that when such a method is used for the time discretization of a gradient flow, the associated discrete dynamical system exhibit properties similar to the continuous case, such as the existence of a Lyapunov functional. By means of a Lojasiewicz-Simon inequality, we prove convergence to equilibrium for the 3-step BDF scheme applied to the Allen-Cahn equation with an analytic nonlinearity. By int… Show more

“…This situation can be observed when the distancing measures has been applied differently with respect to various regions. However, this generalized model is much more complicated problem and cannot be solved directly by our algorithm, for that in the future work we intend to analyse mathematically this model and also solve numerically this problem by using our algorithm combined with the BDF scheme developed recently in (Bouchriti et al 2020).…”

“…They are much more sharper than the recent results in [4, Theorems 3.2 and 3.6] with the eigenvalue estimates σ L4 = 41/72 ≈ 0.5694 and σ L5 = 0.1 for the BDF-4 and BDF-5 formulas, respectively. The present treatment gives the explicit expressions of the Lyapunov functionals G k and is quite different from the recent techniques in [4,24].…”

“…The discrete energy dissipation law and the concise L 2 norm error estimate were established under a practical step-ratio constraint. This lower order scheme would be well suited for the fast varying solutions especially in the early coarsening process [29]; while highorder stable methods should be more preferable for slowly varying solutions during the long-time process approaching the steady state [4,14,15,24]. Nonetheless, due to the lack of proper discrete energy techniques, the stability and convergence of the non-A-stable BDF-k (k = 3, 4, 5, 6) schemes for nonlinear phase field models have not been well studied in the literatures.…”

“…Finite element methods [43,53,60], finite difference methods [23,24,28,30,55], spectral-Galerkin approaches [127] and discontinuous Galerkin methods [9,139] with such properties are available. Regarding the time semidiscretization, we refer the reader to the reviews [126,127,133] and to the paper [21].…”
