Abstract:
Hamiltonian
ODEs satisfy a symplectic conservation law, and there are many advantages to
using numerical integrators that preserves this structure. This talk will
discuss how the canonical Hamiltonian structure, and its preservation by a
numerical method, can be generalized to PDEs. I will also provide a basic
introduction to the finite element method and, time permitting, discuss how
some classic symplectic integrators can be understood from this point of view.
