In two earlier papers with the same title, we studied connections between Voronoi’s formula in the divisor problem and Atkinson’s formula for the mean square of Riemann’s zeta-function. Now we consider this correspondence in terms of segments of sums appearing in these formulae and show that a certain arithmetic conjecture concerning the divisor function implies best possible bounds for the classical error terms Δ($x$) and$E$($T$).

We present novel algorithms for compressible flows that\n\nare efficient for all Mach numbers. The approach is based on several\n\ningredients: semi-implicit schemes, the gauge decomposition\n\nof the velocity field and a second order formulation of the density\n\nequation (in the isentropic case) and of the energy equation (in\n\nthe full Navier-Stokes case). Additionally, we show that our approach\n\ncorresponds to a micro-macro decomposition of the model,\n\nwhere the macro field corresponds to the incompressible component\n\nsatisfying a perturbed low Mach number limit equation and\n\nthe micro field is the potential component of the velocity. Finally,\n\nwe also use the conservative variables in order to obtain a proper\n\nconservative formulation of the equations when the Mach number\n\nis order unity. We successively consider the isentropic case, the\n\nfull Navier-Stokes case, and the isentropic Navier-Stokes-Poisson\n\ncase. In this work, we only concentrate on the question of the\n\ntime discretization and show that the proposed method leads to\n\nAsymptotic Preserving schemes for compressible flows in the low\n\nMach number limit.

This paper analyzes the random fluctuations obtained by a heterogeneous multi-scale first-order finite element method applied to solve elliptic equations with a random potential. Several multiscale numerical algorithms have been shown to correctly capture the homogenized limit of solutions of elliptic equations with coefficients modeled as stationary and ergodic random fields. Because theoretical results are available in the continuum setting for such equations, we consider here the case of a secondorder elliptic equations with random potential in two dimensions of space. We show that the random fluctuations of such solutions are correctly estimated by the heterogeneous multi-scale algorithm when appropriate fine-scale problems are solved on subsets that cover the whole computational domain. However, when the fine-scale problems are solved over patches that do not cover the entire domain, the random fluctuations may or may not be estimated accurately. In the case of random potentials with short-range interactions, the variance of the random fluctuations is amplified as the inverse of the fraction of the medium covered by the patches. In the case of random potentials with long-range interactions, however, such an amplification does not occur and random fluctuations are correctly captured independent of the (macroscopic) size of the patches. These results are consistent with those obtained in [9] for more general equations in the one-dimensional setting and provide indications on the loss in accuracy that results from using coarser, and hence computationally less intensive, algorithms.
