Adjoint Appell-Euler And First Kind Appell-Bernoulli Polynomials, Pierpaolo Natalini, Paolo E. Ricci
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
The adjunction property, recently introduced for Sheffer polynomial sets, is considered in the case of Appell polynomials. The particular case of adjoint Appell-Euler and Appell-Bernoulli polynomials of the first kind is analyzed.

Radial Basis Function Generated Finite Differences For The Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation, Justin Ng
Theses and Dissertations
Solutions to the one-dimensional and two-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation are obtained numerically using methods based on radial basis functions (RBFs). Periodic boundary conditions are enforced with a non-periodic initial condition over varying domain sizes. The spatial structure of the solutions is represented using RBFs while several explicit and implicit iterative methods for solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are used in temporal discretization for the approximate solutions to the NLS equation. Splitting schemes, integration factors and hyperviscosity are used to stabilize the time-stepping schemes and are compared with one another in terms of computational efficiency and accuracy.
