A bi-fidelity method for multi-scale kinetic models with uncertain parameters

Solving kinetic or related models with high-dimensional random parameters has been a challenging problem. In this talk, we will discuss how to employ the bi-fidelity stochastic collocation and choose efficient low-fidelity models in order to solve a class of multi-scale kinetic equations with uncertainties, including the Boltzmann equation, linear transport and the Vlasov-Poisson equation. In addition, some error analysis for the bi-fidelity method based on these PDEs will be presented. Finally, several numerical examples are shown to validate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.
