Adaptive methods for plasma simulation

In order to be able to simulate more complex problems in plasma physics or in beam physics, one needs to improve the efficiency of the numerical methods. One approach in this direction is to use multiresolution methods and adaptive mesh refinement techniques. In this talk we shall describe adaptive grid based solvers for the Vlasov equation and point out some issues that need to be addressed when going from a uniform to an adaptive grid. We shall also briefly discuss the Particle-In-Cell (PIC) method on an adaptive grid for the field solver.
