Two algorithms of evaluation of the continuous wavelet transform with the Morlet wavelet are presented. The first one is the solution of PDE with transformed signal, which plays a role of the initial value. The second allows to explore the influence of central frequency variation via the diffusion smoothing of the data modulated by the harmonic functions. These approaches are illustrated by the analysis of the chaotic oscillations of the coupled Roessler systems.

A dynamic process modeled by ordinary differential equations is considered. If a nonautonomous system of ordinary differential equations has a general solution in a certain area, than the system can be simplified by nonautonomous substitution of variables: right parts turn to zeroes. Right parts of an autonomous system of ordinary differential equations in the neighborhood of nonsingular points can be linearized. A separable system where the right part contains linear combination of autonomous vector fields and factors are functions of independent variable is considered. If the fields commute than they can be linearized by general substitution of variables.

We consider a model of stacked long Josephson junctions (LJJ), which consists of alternating superconducting and dielectric layers. The model takes into account the inductive and capacitive coupling between the neighbor junctions. The model is described by a system of nonlinear partial differential equations with respect to the phase differences and the voltage of LJJ, with appropriate initial and boundary conditions. The numerical solution of this system of equations is based on the use of standard three-point finite-difference formulae for discrete approximations in the space coordinate, and the applying the four-step Runge-Kutta method for solving the Cauchy problem obtained. Designed parallel algorithm is implemented by means of the MPI technology (Message Passing Interface). In the paper, the mathematical formulation of the problem is given, numerical scheme and a method of calculation of the current-voltage characteristics of the LJJ system are described. Two variants of parallel implementation are presented. The influence of inductive and capacitive coupling between junctions on the structure of the current-voltage characteristics is demonstrated. The results of methodical calculations with various parameters of length and number of Josephson junctions in the LJJ stack depending on the number of parallel computing nodes, are presented. The calculations have been performed on multiprocessor clusters HybriLIT and CICC of Multi-Functional Information and Computing Complex (Laboratory of Information Technologies, Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna). The numerical results are discussed from the viewpoint of the effectiveness of presented approaches of the LJJ system numerical simulation in parallel. It has been shown that one of parallel algorithms provides the 9 times speedup of calculations.

In the science development an important role the scientific schools are played. This schools are the associations of researchers connected by the common problem, the ideas and the methods used for problems solution. Usually Scientific schools are formed around the leader and the uniting idea.

The several sciences schools were created around academician A. S. Kholodov during his scientific and pedagogical activity.

This review tries to present the main scientific directions in which the bright science collectives with the common frames of reference and approaches to researches were created. In the review this common base is marked out. First, this is development of the group of numerical methods for hyperbolic type systems of partial derivatives differential equations solution — grid and characteristic methods. Secondly, the description of different numerical methods in the undetermined coefficients spaces. This approach developed for all types of partial equations and for ordinary differential equations.

On the basis of A. S. Kholodov’s numerical approaches the research teams working in different subject domains are formed. The fields of interests are including mathematical modeling of the plasma dynamics, deformable solid body dynamics, some problems of biology, biophysics, medical physics and biomechanics. The new field of interest includes solving problem on graphs (such as processes of the electric power transportation, modeling of the traffic flows on a road network etc).

There is the attempt in the present review analyzed the activity of scientific schools from the moment of their origin so far, to trace the connection of A. S. Kholodov’s works with his colleagues and followers works. The complete overview of all the scientific schools created around A. S. Kholodov is impossible due to the huge amount and a variety of the scientific results.

The attempt to connect scientific schools activity with the advent of scientific and educational school in Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology also becomes.

This work is devoted to development of an algorithm for numerical integration of differential equations potentially-streaming method simulation of non-equilibrium processes. This method was developed by the author in his earlier published works. In this paper, consideration is limited to systems with lumped parameters. Also previously developed method for analyzing the correctness of the author of the approximate solution of the system potentially-streaming equations for systems in lumped parameters. The purpose of this article is to combine this technique with modern numerical methods for integrating systems of ordinary differential equations and the development of methods of numerical integration of systems of equations potentially-streaming method that allows to guarantee the correctness of the approximate solution.

Currently, different nonlinear numerical schemes of the spatial approximation are used in numerical simulation of boundary value problems for hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations (e. g. gas dynamics equations, MHD, deformable rigid body, etc.). This is due to the need to improve the order of accuracy and perform simulation of discontinuous solutions that are often occurring in such systems. The need for non-linear schemes is followed from the barrier theorem of S. K. Godunov that states the impossibility of constructing a linear scheme for monotone approximation of such equations with approximation order two or greater. One of the most accurate non-linear type schemes are ENO (essentially non oscillating) and their modifications, including WENO (weighted, essentially non oscillating) scemes. The last received the most widespread, since the same stencil width has a higher order of approximation than the ENO scheme. The benefit of ENO and WENO schemes is the ability to maintain a high-order approximation to the areas of non-monotonic solutions. The main difficulty of the analysis of such schemes comes from the fact that they themselves are nonlinear and are used to approximate the nonlinear equations. In particular, the linear stability condition was obtained earlier only for WENO5 scheme (fifth-order approximation on smooth solutions) and it is a numerical one. In this paper we consider the problem of construction and stability for WENO5, WENO7, WENO9, WENO11, and WENO13 finite volume schemes for the Hopf equation. In the first part of this article we discuss WENO methods in general, and give the explicit expressions for the coefficients of the polynomial weights and linear combinations required to build these schemes. We prove a series of assertions that can make conclusions about the order of approximation depending on the type of local solutions. Stability analysis is carried out on the basis of the principle of frozen coefficients. The cases of a smooth and discontinuous behavior of solutions in the field of linearization with frozen coefficients on the faces of the final volume and spectra of the schemes are analyzed for these cases. We prove the linear stability conditions for a variety of Runge-Kutta methods applied to WENO schemes. As a result, our research provides guidance on choosing the best possible stability parameter, which has the smallest effect on the nonlinear properties of the schemes. The convergence of the schemes is followed from the analysis.

In the article a theory of the implicit iterative line-by-line recurrence method for solving the systems of finite-difference equations which arise as a result of approximation of the two-dimensional elliptic differential equations on a regular grid is stated. On the one hand, the high effectiveness of the method has confirmed in practice. Some complex test problems, as well as several problems of fluid flow and heat transfer of a viscous incompressible liquid, have solved with its use. On the other hand, the theoretical provisions that explain the high convergence rate of the method and its stability are not yet presented in the literature. This fact is the reason for the present investigation. In the paper, the procedure of equivalent and approximate transformations of the initial system of linear algebraic equations (SLAE) is described in detail. The transformations are presented in a matrix-vector form, as well as in the form of the computational formulas of the method. The key points of the transformations are illustrated by schemes of changing of the difference stencils that correspond to the transformed equations. The canonical form of the method is the goal of the transformation procedure. The correctness of the method follows from the canonical form in the case of the solution convergence. The estimation of norms of the matrix operators is carried out on the basis of analysis of structures and element sets of the corresponding matrices. As a result, the convergence of the method is proved for arbitrary initial vectors of the solution of the problem.

The norm of the transition matrix operator is estimated in the special case of weak restrictions on a desired solution. It is shown, that the value of this norm decreases proportionally to the second power (or third degree, it depends on the version of the method) of the grid step of the problem solution area in the case of transition matrix order increases. The necessary condition of the method stability is obtained by means of simple estimates of the vector of an approximate solution. Also, the estimate in order of magnitude of the optimum iterative compensation parameter is given. Theoretical conclusions are illustrated by using the solutions of the test problems. It is shown, that the number of the iterations required to achieve a given accuracy of the solution decreases if a grid size of the solution area increases. It is also demonstrated that if the weak restrictions on solution are violated in the choice of the initial approximation of the solution, then the rate of convergence of the method decreases essentially in full accordance with the deduced theoretical results.

We study polynomial solutions of gyrostat motion equations under potential and gyroscopic forces applied and of gyrostat motion equations in magnetic field taking into account Barnett–London effect. Mathematically, either of the above mentioned problems is described by a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations whose right hand sides contain fifteen constant parameters. These parameters characterize the gyrostat mass distribution, as well as potential and non-potential forces acting on gyrostat. We consider polynomial solutions of Steklov–Kovalevski–Gorjachev and Doshkevich classes. The structure of invariant relations for polynomial solutions shows that, as a rule, on top of the fifteen parameters mentioned one should add no less than twenty five problem parameters. In the process of solving such a multi-parametric problem in this paper we (in addition to analytic approach) apply numeric methods based on CAS. We break our studies of polynomial solutions existence into two steps. During the first step, we estimate maximal degrees of polynomials considered and obtain a non-linear algebraic system for parameters of differential equations and polynomial solutions. In the second step (using the above CAS software) we study the solvability conditions of the system obtained and investigate the conditions of the constructed solutions to be real.

We construct two new polynomial solutions for Kirchhoff–Poisson. The first one is described by the following property: the projection squares of angular velocity on the non-baracentric axes are the fifth degree polynomials of the angular velocity vector component of the baracentric axis that is represented via hypereliptic function of time. The second solution is characterized by the following: the first component of velocity conditions is a second degree polynomial, the second component is a polynomial of the third degree, and the square of the third component is the sixth degree polynomial of the auxiliary variable that is an inversion of the elliptic Legendre integral.

The third new partial solution we construct for gyrostat motion equations in the magnetic field with Barnett–London effect. Its structure is the following: the first and the second components of the angular velocity vector are the second degree polynomials, and the square of the third component is a fourth degree polynomial of the auxiliary variable which is found via inversion of the elliptic Legendre integral of the third kind.

All the solutions constructed in this paper are new and do not have analogues in the fixed point dynamics of a rigid body.

This paper presents algorithm for modeling set of trajectories of non-stationary time series, based on a numerical scheme for approximating the sample density of the distribution function in a problem with fixed ends, when the initial distribution for a given number of steps transforms into a certain final distribution, so that at each step the semigroup property of solving the Liouville equation is satisfied. The model makes it possible to numerically construct evolving densities of distribution functions during random switching of states of the system generating the original time series.

The main problem is related to the fact that with the numerical implementation of the left-hand differential derivative in time, the solution becomes unstable, but such approach corresponds to the modeling of evolution. An integrative approach is used while choosing implicit stable schemes with “going into the future”, this does not match the semigroup property at each step. If, on the other hand, some real process is being modeled, in which goal-setting presumably takes place, then it is desirable to use schemes that generate a model of the transition process. Such model is used in the future in order to build a predictor of the disorder, which will allow you to determine exactly what state the process under study is going into, before the process really went into it. The model described in the article can be used as a tool for modeling real non-stationary time series.

Steps of the modeling scheme are described further. Fragments corresponding to certain states are selected from a given time series, for example, trends with specified slope angles and variances. Reference distributions of states are compiled from these fragments. Then the empirical distributions of the duration of the system’s stay in the specified states and the duration of the transition time from state to state are determined. In accordance with these empirical distributions, a probabilistic model of the disorder is constructed and the corresponding trajectories of the time series are modeled.
