Title: Grassmann extrapolation of density matrices as a tool to accelerate Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics, Speaker(s): Federica Pes, Università di Pisa, Date and time: 19 May 2023, 15:00 (Europe/Rome), Lecture series: Seminar on Numerical Analysis, Venue: Dipartimento di Matematica (Aula Riunioni). You can access the full event here: https://events.dm.unipi.it/e/192 Abstract -------- Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BOMD) is a powerful but expensive technique. The main bottleneck in a density functional theory (DFT) BOMD calculation is the solution to the DFT nonlinear equations that requires an iterative procedure that starts from a guess for the density matrix. To speed up such calculations, various extrapolation strategies have been developed to use densities available at previous simulation steps as a guess for the iterative procedure. However, density matrices belong in a Grassmann manifold, which is not a vector space. Therefore the linear extrapolation is performed in a tangent space of the manifold, thanks to a locally bijective map between the manifold and its tangent space.In this contribution, we introduce an approximately time reversible approach to extrapolate density matrices. Some numerical experiments show optimal performance, compared to the state of the art. -- Indico :: Email Notifier https://events.dm.unipi.it/e/192

Title: Perfect Shifted QR for Rank Structured Pencils, Speaker(s): Prof. Vandebril Raf, KU Leuven, Date and time: 13 Apr 2023, 11:00 (Europe/Rome), Lecture series: Seminar on Numerical Analysis, Venue: Dipartimento di Matematica (Aula Riunioni). You can access the full event here: https://events.dm.unipi.it/e/182 Abstract -------- It is known that executing a perfect shifted QR step via the implicit QR algorithm performs poor in terms of stability, and accuracy. Typically several steps are required before deflation actually takes place. This behavior can be remedied by determining the similarity transformation via the associated eigenvector. Similar techniques can be deduced for the QZ algorithm and the rational QZ algorithm. In this talk we generalize this even further and present an approach for executing a perfect shifted QR step for general rank structured pencils. We prove that the rank structures of the matrices involved in the pencil are preserved, and moreover we examine the preservation of spectral properties of subblocks in the pencil.Authors: Nicola Mastronardi, Marc Van Barel, Raf Vandebril, and Paul Van Dooren -- Indico :: Email Notifier https://events.dm.unipi.it/e/182

Title: Model order reduction of parametric Hamiltonian systems on matrix manifolds, Speaker(s): Cecilia Pagliantini, University of Pisa, Date and time: 28 Mar 2023, 16:00 (Europe/Rome), Lecture series: Seminar on Numerical Analysis, Venue: Dipartimento di Matematica (Aula Seminari). You can access the full event here: https://events.dm.unipi.it/e/176 Abstract -------- Model order reduction of parametric differential equations aims at constructing low-complexity high-fidelity surrogate models that allow rapid and accurate solutions under parameter variation. The development of reduced order models for Hamiltonian systems is challenged by several factors: (i) failing to preserve the geometric structure encoding the physical properties of the dynamics, such as invariants of motion or symmetries, might lead to instabilities and unphysical behaviors of the resulting approximate solutions; (ii) the slowly decaying Kolmogorov n-width of transport-dominated and non-dissipative phenomena demands large reduced spaces to achieve sufficiently accurate approximations; and (iii) nonlinear operators require hyper-reduction techniques that preserve the gradient structure of the flow velocity.We will discuss how to address these aspects via a structure-preserving nonlinear reduced basis approach based on dynamical low-rank approximation. The gist of the proposed method is to adapt in time an approximate low-dimensional phase space endowed with the geometric structure of the full model and to ensure that the reduced flow is still Hamiltonian. -- Indico :: Email Notifier https://events.dm.unipi.it/e/176

Colloquio De Giorgi - Volker Mehrmann, Dirac and Lagrange structures in energy-based mathematical modeling 24/02/23, 16:00

We apologize in advance for cross-posting. ******************************************************************************** CENTRO DI RICERCA MATEMATICA "ENNIO DE GIORGI" ******************************************************************************** COLLOQUIO DE GIORGI Centro De Giorgi, Pisa, 24th February 2023 Aula Dini: 4.00 pm The event will take place in person. Volker Mehrmann Technische Universität Berlin Title:“Dirac and Lagrange structures in energy-based mathematical modeling” Abstract: Most real world dynamical systems consist of subsystems from different physical domains, modelled by partial-differential equations, ordinary differential equations, and algebraic equations, combined with input and output connections. To deal with such complex system, in recent years the class of dissipative port-Hamiltonian (pH) descriptor systems has emerged as a very successful modeling methodology. The main reasons are that the network based interconnection of pH systems is again pH, Galerkin projection in PDE discretization and model reduction preserve the pH structure and the physical properties are encoded in the geometric properties of the flow as well as the algebraic properties of the equations. Furthermore, dissipative pH system form a very robust representation under structured perturbations and directly indicate Lyapunov functions for stability analysis. Using global geometric and algebraic points of view, via Dirac and Lagrange spaces or manifolds, translations between different representations are presented. Characterizations are also derived when a general differential-algebraic system can be transformed into one of these structured representations. Numerical approaches for computing the structural information and the described transformations are derived and the results are demonstrated with some real world examples.

[Indico] Dr Gianluca Ceruti, Robust numerical integrators for dynamical low-rank approximation, 15/12/2022, 11:00 Europe/Rome

Title: Robust numerical integrators for dynamical low-rank approximation, Speaker(s): Dr Gianluca Ceruti, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Date and time: 15 Dec 2022, 11:00 (Europe/Rome), Lecture series: Seminar on Numerical Analysis, Venue: room Aula Magna (Dipartimento di Matematica). You can access the full event here: https://events.dm.unipi.it/e/138 Abstract -------- The discretization of time-dependent high-dimensional PDEs suffers from an undesired effect, the so-called curse of dimensionality: The amount of data to be stored and treated grows exponentially and exceeds standard capacity of common computational devices. In this setting, time dependent model order reductions techniques are desirable. In the present seminar, we present a broad overview on dynamical low-rank approximation together with recent developments on robust numerical integrators for it. Dynamical low-rank approximation for matrices is firstly presented, and a numerical integrator with two remarkable properties is introduced: the matrix projector splitting integrator. Based upon this numerical integrator, we construct two equivalent extensions for tensors, multi-dimensional arrays, in Tucker format - a high-order generalization of the SVD decomposition for matrices. These extensions are proven to preserve the excellent qualities of the matrix integrator. Then, via a novel compact formulation of the Tucker integrator, we further extend the matrix and Tucker projector splitting integrators to the most general class of Tree Tensor Networks. Important examples belonging to this class and of interest for applications are given by (but not only restricted to) Tensor Trains.The present seminar is based upon joint works with Ch. Lubich, H. Walach, J. Kusch, and D. Sulz. -- Indico :: Email Notifier https://events.dm.unipi.it/e/138
