Abstract

Abstract: In this paper, we develop a class of explicit energy-preserving Runge-Kutta schemes for solving the nonlinear Schrödinger equation based on the projection technique and the exponential time differencing method. First, we reformulate the equation to an equivalent system that possesses new quadratic energy via introducing an auxiliary variable. Then, we construct a family of fully discrete exponential time differencing schemes which have better stability by using the Runge-Kutta method and the Fourier-pseudo spectral method to approximate the system in time and space, respectively. Subsequently, energy-preserving schemes are derived by combining the proposed explicit schemes and the projection technique, and the stability result is given. Finally, extensive numerical examples are presented to confirm the constructed schemes have high accuracy, energy-preserving and effectiveness in long time simulation. Highlights: A class of explicit high-order exponential integrator energy-preserving methods are proposed for solving the 2D NLS equation. A rigorous proof of the accuracy and the conservative property of the proposed schemes are given. Ample numerical examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the methods. Remarkable performances in the energy preservation and computational efficiency are obtained with the new schemes.
