Implicit Extensions of an Explicit Multirate Runge-Kutta Scheme

Abstract: We propose a new method that extends conservative explicit multirate methods to implicit explicit-multirate methods. We develop extensions of order one and two with different stability properties on the implicit side. The method is suitable for time-stepping adaptive mesh refinement PDE discretizations with different degrees of stiffness. A numerical example with an advection-diffusion problem illustrates the new method's properties.
