Spectral approach to D-bar problems

Abstract: We present the first numerical approach to D-bar problems having spectral convergence for real analytic rapidly decreasing potentials. The proposed method starts from a formulation of the problem in terms of an integral equation which is solved with Fourier techniques. The singular integrand is regularized analytically. The resulting integral equation is approximated via a discrete system which is solved with Krylov methods. As an example, the D-bar problem for the Davey-Stewartson II equations is solved. The result is used to test direct numerical solutions of the PDE.
