Exponential operator splitting methods constitute a favourable class
of time integration methods for various kinds of linear and nonlinear evolution
equations. They rely on the presumption that the defining right-hand side comprises
two (or more) operators and that the numerical approximation of the associated
subproblems is significantly simpler compared to the numerical approximation of...

The independence phenomenon is a central theme in set theory and more generally in mathematics. Starting from the Continuum Problem, there are numerous statements in various areas of mathematics that can neither be proven nor disproven in the usual axiomatic framework given by the Zermelo Fraenkel Axioms. The most promising approach to attack this issue is by studying extensions of the usual...
