In applications such as astrophysics and inertial confinement fusion, there are many three-dimensional cylindrical-symmetric multi-material problems which are usually simulated by Lagrangian schemes in the two-dimensional cylindrical coordinates. For this type of simulation, a critical issue for the schemes is to keep spherical symmetry in the cylindrical coordinate system if the original physical problem has this symmetry. In the past decades, several Lagrangian schemes with such symmetry property have been developed, but all of them are only first order accurate. In this paper, we develop a second order cell-centered Lagrangian scheme for solving compressible Euler equations in cylindrical coordinates, based on the control volume discretizations, which is designed to have uniformly second order accuracy and capability to preserve one-dimensional spherical symmetry in a two-dimensional cylindrical geometry when computed on an equal-angle-zoned initial grid. The scheme maintains several good properties such as conservation for mass, momentum and total energy, and the geometric conservation law. Several two-dimensional numerical examples in cylindrical coordinates are presented to demonstrate the good performance of the scheme in terms of accuracy, symmetry, non-oscillation and robustness. The advantage of higher order accuracy is demonstrated in these examples.

We shall be concerned with the indicator$p$of an analytic functional μ on a complex manifold$U$: $$p(\varphi ) = \overline {\mathop {\lim }\limits_{t \to + \infty } } \frac{l}{t}\log \left| {\mu (e^{t\varphi } )} \right|,$$ where ϕ is an arbitrary analytic function on$U$. More specifically, we shall consider the smallest upper semicontinuous majorant$p$^{$J$}of the restriction of$p$to a subspace £ of the analytic functions. An obvious problem is then to characterize the set of functions$p$^{$J$}which can occur as regularizations of indicators. In the case when$U$=$C$^{$n$}and £ is the space of all linear functions on$C$^{$n$}, this set can be described more easily as the set of functions(0.1) $$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\theta \to \zeta } \overline {\mathop {\lim }\limits_{t \to + \infty } } \frac{l}{t}\log \left| {u(t\theta )} \right|$$ of$n$complex variables ζ∈$C$^{$n$}where$u$is an entire function of exponential type in$C$^{$n$}. We hall prove that a function in$C$^{$n$}is of the form (0.1) for some entire function$u$of exponential type if and only if it is plurisubharmonic and positively homogeneous of order one (Theorem 3.4). The proof is based on the characterization given by Fujita and Takeuchi of those open subsets of complex projective$n$-space which are Stein manifolds.
