Essentially non oscillatory subcell-resolution (ENO-SR) is a local technique avoiding oscillations and with a full order of accuracy, but a loss of regularity of the approximant appears. The goal of this paper is to introduce a new approach having both properties of full accuracy and regularity. In order to obtain it, we propose a three-stage algorithm: first, the data is smoothed by subtracting an appropriate non-smooth data sequence; then a chosen high order linear approximation operator is applied to the smoothed data and finally, an approximation with the proper jump or corner (jump in the first order derivative) discontinuity structure is reinstated by correcting the smooth approximation with the non-smooth element used in the first stage. This new procedure can be applied as subdivision scheme to design curves and surfaces both in point-value and in cell-average contexts. Using the proposed algorithm, we are able to construct approximations with high precision, with high piecewise regularity, and without smearing nor oscillations in the presence of discontinuities.

Since the resulting scheme contains many more degrees of freedom than strictly required, strategies are presented to remove almost all redundancy without significant loss of effectiveness of the preconditioner.

More recently, it has been demonstrated that retractions are a useful concept for other computational tasks on manifold as well, including interpolation tasks. In this work, we consider the application of retractions to the numerical integration of differential equations on fixed-rank matrix manifolds. This is closely related to dynamical low-rank approximation (DLRA) techniques. In fact, any retraction leads to a numerical integrator and, vice versa, certain DLRA techniques bear a direct relation with retractions. As an example for the latter, we introduce a new retraction, called KLS retraction, that is derived from the so-called unconventional integrator for DLRA. We also illustrate how retractions can be used to recover known DLRA techniques and to design new ones. In particular, this work introduces two novel numerical integration schemes that apply to differential equations on general manifolds: the accelerated forward Euler (AFE) method and the Projected Ralston-Hermite (PRH) method. Both methods build on retractions by using them as a tool for approximating curves on manifolds. The two methods are proven to have local truncation error of order three.

Classically, such problems are addressed by first extracting the regular part through the staircase form and then applying a standard solver, such as the QZ algorithm, to that regular part. Recently, several novel approaches have been proposed to transform the singular pencil into a regular pencil by relatively simple randomized modifications. In this work, we analyze three such methods by Hochstenbach, Mehl, and Plestenjak that modify, project, or augment the pencil using random matrices. All three methods rely on the normal rank and do not alter the finite eigenvalues of the original pencil. We show that the eigenvalue condition numbers of the transformed pencils are unlikely to be much larger than the <math><mi>δ</mi></math> -weak eigenvalue condition numbers, introduced by Lotz and Noferini, of the original pencil. This not only indicates favorable numerical stability but also reconfirms that these condition numbers are a reliable criterion for detecting simple finite eigenvalues. We also provide evidence that, from a numerical stability perspective, the use of complex instead of real random matrices is preferable even for real singular matrix pencils and real eigenvalues.
