ExaGRyPE: Numerical General Relativity Solvers Based upon the Hyperbolic PDEs Solver Engine ExaHyPE

ExaGrYPE is an extension to ExaHyPE 2 which in turn is built on top of Peano 4. Peano provides the AMR meshing (as well as all other facilities that we need such as the data management, MPI and multithreading), ExaHyPE 2 provides all the hyperbolic solver tools on top of this, and ExaGRyPE finally tweaks and tailors these generic solvers towards numerical relativity.

The code is introduced in a paper in Computer Physics Communications

@article{Zhang:2025:ExaGRyPE,
title = {ExaGRyPE: Numerical general relativity solvers based upon the hyperbolic PDEs solver engine ExaHyPE},
journal = {Computer Physics Communications},
volume = {307},
pages = {109435},
year = {2025},
issn = {0010-4655},
doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cpc.2024.109435},
}

and the source code is now part of the the standard Peano 4 releases. If you download this code and add ExaHyPE as extension, you can directly reproduce all ExaGRyPE results and build your own ExaGRyPE applications. The code’s documentation holds tutorials and information on this.

  • Enjoyed to serve on the first panel at the DRI retreat in Manchester. Great questions. But also had a hard time: look at the microphone in front of me.
  • It was great to be in Durham Cathedral today and see my PhD student graduate. Once again: Congratulations Dr Noble.
  • Took me and two kids an afternoon to build this fake lego set. But eventually we did succeed. Peano, ExaHyPE, ... all are hosted on LRZ's gitlab and free to download.
  • Congratulations to the compute centre next to my alma mater for Blue Lion.
  • One of my favourite application domains (of which I understand next to nothing but for which I write software tools) combines proper science with fantastic pictures: sites.google.com/view/uknr/home Happy to join this club! https://sites.google.com/view/uknr/home
