Ok I will investigate implementing it using SLATE, thanks. Miguel

I guess I could embed this calculation inside of the calculation for G = H(p1, p2). However, I am hoping to be able to solve the problem using firedrake-ts so the formulation is all clearly in one place and in variational form. Reading the manual, Section 2.5.2 DAE formulations, the Hessenberg Index-1 DAE case seems to be what I need, although it is not clear to me how one can achieve this with an IMEX scheme. If I have: I am almost certain that you do not want to do this. I am guessing the Firedrake guys will agree. Did they tell you to do this? If you had a large, nonlinear system for p1/p2, then a DAE would make sense. Since it is just element-wise elimination, you should roll it into the easy equation u' = H Then you can use any integrator, as Barry says, in particular a nice symplectic integrator. My understand is that SLATE is for exactly this kind of thing. Thanks, Matt F(U', U, t) = G(t,U) p1 = f(u_x) p2 = g(u_x) u' - H(p1, p2) = 0 where U = (p1, p2, u), F(U’, U, t) = [p1, p2, u’ - H(p1, p2)],] and G(t, U) = [f(u_x), g(u_x), 0], is there a solver strategy that will solve for p1 and p2 first and then use that to solve the last equation? The jacobian for F in this formulation would be dF/dU = [[M, 0, 0], [0, M, 0], [H'(p1), H'(p2), \sigma*M]] where M is a mass matrix, H'(p1) is the jacobian of H(p1, p2) w.r.t. p1 and H'(p2), the jacobian of H(p1, p2) w.r.t. p2. H'(p1) and H'(p2) are unnecessary for the solver strategy I want to implement.

For implicit methods it can automatically compute the Jacobian of G for you or you can provide it directly. Explicit methods will just use the "old" u while implicit methods will use the new.

The equation is more or less of the form (for 1D case): p1 = f(u_x) p2 = g(u_x) u_t = H(p1, p2) where typically one solves for p1 and p2 using the previous time step solution “u” and then plugs them into the third equation to obtain the next step solution. I am wondering if the TS infrastructure could be used to implement this solution scheme. Looking at the manual, I think one could set G(t, U) to the right-hand side in the above equations and F(t, u, u’) = 0 to the left-hand side, although the first two equations would not have time derivative. In that case, how could one take advantage of the operator split scheme I mentioned? Maybe using some block preconditioners? Hi Miguel, I have a simple-minded way of understanding these TS things. My heuristic is that you put things in F that you expect to want at u^{n+1}, and things in G that you expect to want at u^n. It is not that simple, since you could for instance move F and G to the LHS and have Backward Euler, but it is my rule of thumb. So, were you looking for an IMEX scheme? If so, which terms should be lagged? Also, from the equations above, it is hard to see why you need a solve to calculate p1/p2. It looks like just a forward application of an operator. Thanks, Matt I am trying to solve the Hamilton-Jacobi equation u_t – H(u_x) = 0. I welcome any suggestion for better methods. Thanks Miguel Miguel A.
