Dimensional splitting of hyperbolic partial differential equations using the Radon transform

Abstract

We introduce a dimensional splitting method based on the intertwining property of the Radon transform, with a particular focus on its applications related to hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs). This dimensional splitting has remarkable properties that makes it useful in a variety of contexts, including multi-dimensional extension of large time-step (LTS) methods, absorbing boundary conditions, displacement interpolation, and multi-dimensional generalization of transport reversal.
