A Stable SBP-SAT FDTD Subgridding Method Without Region Split

Yuhui Wang, Langran Deng, Weibo Wu et al.

A provably stable summation-by-parts simultaneous approximation term (SBP-SAT) finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) subgridding method without region split is proposed. By designing projection SBP operators tailored for embedded topological features and deriving the corresponding SAT boundary conditions, this approach guarantees long-time stability through discrete energy analysis. Unlike conventional SBP-SAT FDTD subgridding techniques that rely on aligned or multi-block configurations, the proposed method enables a direct coupling between an internal refined region and a single surrounding coarse-grid domain without introducing auxiliary blocks or causing domain fragmentation. Numerical results validate the efficiency, accuracy, and topological flexibility of the proposed method. Compared with existing multi-block SBP-SAT methods, this method effectively reduces computational complexity by minimizing SAT boundary conditions and improves calculation accuracy near grid interfaces.

JailbreakLens: Visual Analysis of Jailbreak Attacks Against Large Language Models

Yingchaojie Feng, Zhizhang Chen, Zhining Kang et al.

The proliferation of large language models (LLMs) has underscored concerns regarding their security vulnerabilities, notably against jailbreak attacks, where adversaries design jailbreak prompts to circumvent safety mechanisms for potential misuse. Addressing these concerns necessitates a comprehensive analysis of jailbreak prompts to evaluate LLMs' defensive capabilities and identify potential weaknesses. However, the complexity of evaluating jailbreak performance and understanding prompt characteristics makes this analysis laborious. We collaborate with domain experts to characterize problems and propose an LLM-assisted framework to streamline the analysis process. It provides automatic jailbreak assessment to facilitate performance evaluation and support analysis of components and keywords in prompts. Based on the framework, we design JailbreakLens, a visual analysis system that enables users to explore the jailbreak performance against the target model, conduct multi-level analysis of prompt characteristics, and refine prompt instances to verify findings. Through a case study, technical evaluations, and expert interviews, we demonstrate our system's effectiveness in helping users evaluate model security and identify model weaknesses.
