We present a new hyperviscosity formulation for stabilizing radial basis function-finite difference (RBF-FD) discretizations of advection-diffusion-reaction equations on manifolds M subset of R-3 of codimension 1. Our technique involves automatic addition of artificial hyperviscosity to damp out spurious modes in the differentiation matrices corresponding to surface gradients, in the process overcoming a technical limitation of a recently developed Euclidean formulation. Like the Euclidean formulation, the manifold formulation relies on von Neumann stability analysis performed on auxiliary differential operators that mimic the spurious solution growth induced by RBF-FD differentiation matrices. We demonstrate high-order convergence rates on problems involving surface advection and surface advection-diffusion. Finally, we demonstrate the applicability of our formulation to advectiondiffusion-reaction equations on manifolds described purely as point clouds. Our surface discretizations use the recently developed RBF-least orthogonal interpolation method and, with the addition of hyperviscosity, are now empirically high-order accurate, stable, and free of stagnation errors.
