  1. Curl-Free and Div-Free Radial Basis Functions March 2, 2018

  2. Physical situations when solving a PDE for Div-Free, Curl-Free fields

  3. Why do we care?

  4. Step back: why are RBFs so nice? Any scattered data in any number of dimensions can be handled the same Interpolation matrices can be proved to be invertible There exist convergence results that imply use of RBF is theoretically sound

  5. An Example: Question: Can we find a unique interpolant that fits the data and is divergence free?

  6. An Example:

  7. An Example:

  8. Narcowich and Wards matrix valued RBF

  9. General Curl-Free and Div-Free formulations

  10. Theoretical convergence properties

  11. Using Div-Free RBFs to calculate M

  12. Using Div-Free RBFs to calculate M
