The solution of multi-scale partial differential equations using wavelets
Stefan Goedecker, Oleg Ivanov
Abstract
Wavelets are a powerful new mathematical tool which offers the possibility to treat in a natural way quantities characterized by several length scales. In this article we will show how wavelets can be used to solve partial differential equations which exhibit widely varying length scales and which are therefore hardly accessible by other numerical methods. As a benchmark calculation we solve Poisson's equation for a 3-dimensional Uranium dimer. The length scales of the charge distribution vary by 4 orders of magnitude in this case. Using lifted interpolating wavelets the number of iterations is independent of the maximal resolution and the computational effort therefore scales strictly linearly with respect to the size of the system.
