Wearing mathematical glasses, we will easily find basic geometrical concepts. On one hand, we will see that dancers, when organized in groups, form circumferences, rectangles and other polygons; on the other hand, we will describe symmetries among dancers’ positions, by means of rotations, translations and reflections. We will also describe other dances making use of deeper and less obvious concepts, such as permutations and combinations from combinatorics and braid theory from topology.

To deal with the fact that the domain of the equation is unbounded, we use Hermite functions as orthogonal basis. Under certain conditions on the coefficients of the equation, we prove the spectral convergence rate of the approximate solutions for regular initial data in a weighted space related to the Hermite functions. Numerical evidence of this convergence is also presented. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 2012

spectral viscosity method in which the orthogonal basis considered is the one of Hermite functions. We prove the convergence of the approximate solution to the unique entropy solution of the problem by using compensated compactness arguments.

We use properties of Hermite polynomials, as well as an asymptotic expression for their largest zeroes to achieve the mentioned
estimate.
