SimiLie (aka. Simulation in Lie groups) is a performance-portable (CPU & GPU) C++ library aiming to extent the capabilities of DDC to offer a complete toolkit able to address any physical problem from eventually-relativistic classical field theory (in particular: solid & fluid mechanics, electromagnetism and gravitation, or coupling between those).
Absolute WIP, there is no guarantee for proper working. Kokkos backends other than Serial are not yet supported.
- Short term: simulate electromagnetism on manifold.
- Mid term (months): simulate geometrodynamics.
- Long term: generalize to all kinds of classical gauge theories and put Lie groups and Clifford algebra at the center of the construction.
- Extra-long term (years): quantization.
DONE:
- Tensors (any dimension, rank and structure), tensor fields, tensor product, covariant/contravariant character, metric.
- Differential forms: (co)simplices, (co)chains, (co)boundary operator, discrete Hodge star.
TODO:
- Finite elements solver.
- Application to an electromagnetism problem on manifold.
