Abstract
In the current paper, we implement high order Bayliss-Turkel ABCs directly - with no auxiliary variables yet no discrete approximation of the constituent high order derivatives either. Instead, we represent the solution at the boundary as an expansion with respect to a continuous basis. For the spherical artificial boundary, the basis consists of eigenfunctions of the Beltrami operator (spherical harmonics), which enable replacing the high order derivatives in the ABCs with powers of the corresponding eigenvalues. The continuous representation at the boundary is coupled to higher order compact finite differences inside the domain by the method of difference potentials (MDP). It maintains high order accuracy even when the boundary is not aligned with the discretization grid.
