Abstract

The discretisation of noncompact operators leading to continuous spectra and resonant absorption is discussed from a physical point of view. Relations between discrete “continua” and validity limits in evolution codes are revealed. In particular, it is demonstrated that spectral pollution might be an unpleasant problem in multidimensional evolution codes. Several open questions concerning present-day computational models are put forward.
