Energy preserving methods for nonlinear Schrödinger equations
Résumé
This paper is concerned with the numerical integration in time of nonlinear Schrödinger equations using different methods preserving the energy or a discrete analog of it. The Crank-Nicolson method is a well known method of order 2 but is fully implicit and one may prefer a linearly implicit method like the relaxation method introduced in [10] for the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. This method is also an energy preserving method and numerical simulations have shown that its order is 2. In this paper we give a rigorous proof of the order of this relaxation method and propose a generalized version that allows to deal with general power law nonlinearites. Numerical simulations for different physical models show the efficiency of these methods.
