Abstract: (arXiv)
High performance computations are presented for the Higgs Boson Equation in the de Sitter Space- time using explicit fourth order Runge-Kutta scheme on the temporal discretization and fourth order finite difference discretization in space. In addition to the fully three space dimensional equation its one space dimensional radial solutions are also examined. The numerical code for the three space di- mensional equation has been programmed in CUDA Fortran and was performed on NVIDIA Tesla K40c GPU Accelerator. The radial form of the equation was simulated in MATLAB. The numerical results demonstrate the existing theoretical result that under certain conditions bubbles form in the scalar field. We also demonstrate the known blow-up phenomena for the solutions of the semilinear Klein-Gordon equation with imaginary mass. Our numerical studies suggest several previously not known properties of the solution for which theoretical proofs do not exist yet: 1. smooth solution exists for all time if the initial conditions are compactly supported and smooth; 2. under some conditions no bubbles form; 3. solutions converge to step functions related to unforced, damped Duffing equations.References(30)
