| contents | We present a lifting-based interface reduction framework for nonlinear transmission and eigenvalue problems. The method represents the solution as a sum of a bulk component and a lifting component that carries the interface jump, thereby reducing the original problem to a nonlinear system posed on the interface.
A low-dimensional approximation is obtained by restricting the interface unknown to a finite-dimensional subspace. The corresponding lifting modes are precomputed and reused, leading to a formulation in which the bulk operator remains fixed and the essential behavior is governed by a small number of interface degrees of freedom.
For eigenvalue problems, the same framework yields a reduced system in which eigenvalues are identified through the near-singularity of a parameter-dependent interface matrix. The associated eigenvectors reveal dominant interface modes, providing a direct interpretation of the spectral structure.
Numerical experiments show that both approximation accuracy and spectral behavior are determined primarily by the interface representation rather than by the bulk discretization. In particular, enriching the interface space rapidly improves accuracy and reveals additional eigenmodes, while mesh refinement alone has limited effect.
These results indicate that transmission and eigenvalue problems are effectively governed by a small number of interface modes, offering a simple and computationally efficient perspective on model reduction. |
