We expand Taylor series to derive a higher-order approximation for U<sub>t</sub>. We begin with the simplest model problem, for heat conduction in a uniform medium. For this model problem, an explicit difference method is very straightforward in use, and the analysis of its error is easily accomplished by the use of a maximum principle. As we shall show, however, the numerical solution becomes unstable unless the time step is severely restricted, so we shall go on to consider other, more elaborate, numerical methods which can avoid such a restriction. The additional complication in the numerical calculation is more than offset by the smaller number of time steps needed. We then extend the methods to problems with more general boundary conditions, then to more general linear parabolic equations. Finally, we shall discuss the more difficult problem of the solution of nonlinear equations.展开更多

The effect of noncanonical strength, off-axis distance and vortex sign on spatial correlation singularities in far field is stressed. Furthermore, far-field OAM spectra and densities are also investigated, and the OAM detection and crosstalk probabilities are discussed. The results show that the number of dislocations of SCS always equals the sum of absolute values of topological charges for canonical or noncanonical vortex pairs. Although the sum of the product of each OAM mode and its power weight equals the algebraic sum of topological charges for canonical vortex pairs, the relationship no longer holds in the noncanonical case except for opposite-charge vortex pairs. The changes of off-axis distance, noncanonical strength or coherence length can lead to a more dominant power in adjacent mode than that in center detection mode, which also indicates that crosstalk probabilities of adjacent modes exceed the center detection probability. This work may provide potential applications in OAM-based optical communication, imaging, sensing and computing.展开更多
