Abstract of
Antisymmetry, pseudospectral methods, and conservative PDEs
by Robert McLachlan and Nicolas Robidoux

``Dual composition'', a method for numerically discretizing compositions of linear differential operators and variational derivatives, is introduced. The structural factors of dual composition discretizations induce summation by parts formulas which characterize their energy properties. Pseudospectral, Galerkin, antialiasing, and Hamiltonian methods are discussed.
