Abstract

We propose a fast method for high order approximations of the solution of the Cauchy problem for the linear non-stationary Stokes system in R^3 in the unknown velocity u and kinematic pressure P. The density f(x,t) and the divergence vector-free initial value g(x) are smooth and rapidly decreasing as |x| tends to infinity. We construct the vector u in the form u=u1+u2 where u1 solves a system of homogeneous heat equations and u2 solves a system of non-homogeneous heat equations with right-hand side f-graf P. Moreover, P=-L( div f)) where L denotes the harmonic potential. Fast semi-analytic cubature formulas for computing the harmonic potential and the solution of the heat equation based on the approximation of the data by functions with analitically known potentials are considered. In addition, the gradient of P can be approximated by the gradient of the cubature of P, which is a semi-analytic formula too. We derive fast and accurate high order formulas for the approximation of u1, u2, P and grad P. The accuracy of the method and the convergence order 2,4,6 and 8 are confirmed by numerical experiments.
