چکیده

We study the Strang splitting scheme for quasilinear Schrödinger equations. We establish the convergence of the scheme for solutions with small initial data. We analyze the linear instability of the numerical scheme, which explains the numerical blow-up of large data solutions and connects to analytical breakdown of regularity of solutions to quasilinear Schrödinger equations. Numerical tests are performed for a modified version of the superfluid thin film equation.

Strang Splitting Methods Applied to a Quasilinear Schrödinger Equation - Convergence and Dynamics

We study numerically a class of quasilinear Schrödinger equations using the Strang splitting method. For these particular models, we can prove convergence of our approximation by adapting the work of Lubich [30] for a Lie theoretic approach to the continuous time approximation and Sobolev-based well-posedness results of the second author with J. Metcalfe and D. Tataru in order to model small in...

A predictor-corrector algorithm for the coupling of stiff ODEs to a particle population balance

In this paper a novel predictor–corrector algorithm is presented for the solution of coupled gas-phase – particulate systems. The emphasis of this work is the study of soot formation, but the concepts can be applied to other systems. This algorithm couples a stiff ODE solver to a Monte Carlo population balance solver. Such coupling has been achieved previously for similar systems using a Strang...

Splitting methods for the Schrödinger equation

The following text is a summary of the same-titled talk given within the frame of the seminar ’AKNUM: Seminar aus Numerik’ at the Vienna University of Technology. We address time splitting methods for the Schrödinger equation. In particular, we concentrate on the Strang splitting and prove second order convergence in the case of a bounded potential and given bounds on the (iterated) commutators...

Strang Splitting for the Time-Dependent Schrödinger Equation on Sparse Grids

The time-dependent Schrödinger equation is discretized in space by a sparse grid pseudo-spectral method. The Strang splitting for the resulting evolutionary problem features first or second order convergence in time, depending on the smoothness of the potential and of the initial data. In contrast to the full grid case, where the frequency domain is the working place, the proof of the sufficien...

Improved error estimates for splitting methods applied to highly-oscillatory nonlinear Schrödinger equations

In this work, the error behavior of operator splitting methods is analyzed for highly-oscillatory differential equations. The scope of applications includes time-dependent nonlinear Schrödinger equations, where the evolution operator associated with the principal linear part is highly-oscillatory and periodic in time. In a first step, a known convergence result for the second-order Strang split...
