A nonlocal perfectly matched layer (PML) is formulated for the nonlocal wave
equation in the whole real axis, and numerical discretization is designed for solving
the reduced PML problem on a bounded domain. The nonlocal PML poses challenges
not faced in PDEs. For example, there is no derivative in nonlocal models, which
makes it impossible to replace derivatives with complex ones. Here we provide a way
of constructing the PML for nonlocal models, which decays the waves exponentially
impinging in the layer and makes reflections at the truncated boundary
very tiny. To numerically solve the nonlocal PML problem, we design the
asymptotically compatible (AC) scheme for a spatially nonlocal operator by
combining Talbot’s contour and a Verlet-type scheme for time evolution. The
accuracy and effectiveness of our approach are illustrated by various numerical
examples.
