In this paper, the frequency domain-based numerical methods for simulation of fractional order systems are studied in the sense of stability preservation. First, the stability boundary curve is exactly determined for these methods. Then, this boundary is analyzed and compared with an accurate (ideal) boundary in different frequency ranges. Also, the critical regions in which the stability does not preserve are determined. Finally, the analytical achievements are confirmed via some numerical illustrations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We study two space-time mesh refinement methods as the one introduced in [F. Collino, T. Fouquet, and P. Joly, Numer. Math., 95 (2003), pp. 197--221]. The stability of such methods is guaranteed by construction through the conservation of a discrete energy. In this paper, we show the L2 convergence of these schemes and provide optimal error estimates. The proof is based on energy techniques and bootstrap arguments. Our results are validated with numerical simulations and compared with results from plane wave analysis [F. Collino, T. Fouquet, and P. Joly, Numer. Math., 95 (2003), pp. 223--251].

A numerical radius approach is taken in this paper in order to discuss sufficient stability conditions for a well-known family of finite difference schemes for the initial value problem associated with the Petrowski well-posed, multispace-dimensional parabolic system [This symbol cannot be presented in ASCII format] where Apq, Bp, and C are constant matrices, Apq being Hermitian.
