چکیده

When numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for the electrons in an atom or molecule, the Coulomb singularity poses a challenge. The solution will have limited regularity, and high-order spatial discretisations, which are much favoured in the chemical physics community, are not performing to their full potential. By exploiting knowledge about the jumps in the derivatives of the solution we construct a correction, and show how this improves the convergence rate of Fourier collocation from second to fourth order. This allows for a substantial reduction in the number of grid points. The new method is applied to the higher harmonic generation from atomic hydrogen.

Ergodicity for the Weakly Damped Stochastic Non-linear Schrödinger Equations

We study a damped stochastic non-linear Schrödinger (NLS) equation driven by an additive noise. It is white in time and smooth in space. Using a coupling method, we establish convergence of the Markovian transition semi-group toward a unique invariant probability measure. This kind of method was originally developped to prove exponential mixing for strongly dissipative equations such as the Nav...

Effective Mass Theorems for Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations

We consider time-dependent nonlinear Schrödinger equations subject to smooth, lattice-periodic potentials plus additional confining potentials, slowly varying on the lattice scale. After an appropriate scaling we study the homogenization limit for vanishing lattice spacing. Assuming well prepared initial data, the resulting effective dynamics is governed by a homogenized nonlinear Schrödinger e...

‎Multistep collocation method for nonlinear delay integral equations

‎The main purpose of this paper is to study the numerical solution of nonlinear Volterra integral equations with constant delays, based on the multistep collocation method. These methods for approximating the solution in each subinterval are obtained by fixed number of previous steps and fixed number of collocation points in current and next subintervals. Also, we analyze the convergence of the...
