New conservative difference schemes for a coupled nonlinear Schrödinger system

In this paper, two conservative difference schemes for solving a coupled nonlinear Schrödinger (CNLS) system are numerically analyzed. Firstly, a nonlinear implicit two-level finite difference scheme for CNLS system is studied, then a linear three-level difference scheme for CNLS system is presented. An induction argument and the discrete energy method are used to prove the second-order convergence and unconditional stability of the linear scheme. Numerical examples show the efficiency of the new scheme.

On the perturbation algorithm for the semidiscrete scheme for the evolution equation and estimation of the approximate solution error using semigroups

In a Banach space, for the approximate solution of the Cauchy problem for the evolution equation with an operator generating an analytic semigroup, a purely implicit three-level semidiscrete scheme that can be reduced to two-level schemes is considered. Using these schemes, an approximate solution to the original problem is constructed. Explicit bounds on the approximate solution error are proved using properties of semigroups under minimal assumptions about the smoothness of the data of the problem. An intermediate step in this proof is the derivation of an explicit estimate for the semidiscrete Crank–Nicolson scheme. To demonstrate the generality of the perturbation algorithm as applied to difference schemes, a four-level scheme that is also reduced to two-level schemes is considered.

The stability and convergence of two linearized finite difference schemes for the nonlinear epitaxial growth model

The numerical simulation of the dynamics of the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth is considered in this article. The governing equation is a nonlinear evolutionary equation that is of linear fourth order derivative term and nonlinear second order derivative term in space. The main purpose of this work is to construct and analyze two linearized finite difference schemes for solving the MBE model. The linearized backward Euler difference scheme and the linearized Crank‐Nicolson difference scheme are derived. The unique solvability, unconditional stability and convergence are proved. The linearized Euler scheme is convergent with the convergence order of O(τ + h²) and linearized Crank‐Nicolson scheme is convergent with the convergence order of O(τ² + h²) in discrete L²‐norm, respectively. Numerical stability with respect to the initial conditions is also obtained for both schemes. Numerical experiments are carried out to demonstrate the theoretical analysis. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2011     

The numerical analysis of two linearized difference schemes for the Benjamin–Bona–Mahony–Burgers equation

In the article, two linearized finite difference schemes are proposed and analyzed for the Benjamin–Bona–Mahony–Burgers (BBMB) equation. For the construction of the two-level scheme, the nonlinear term is linearized via averaging k and k + 1 floor, we prove unique solvability and convergence of numerical solutions in detail with the convergence order O(τ² + h²) . For the three-level linearized scheme, the extrapolation technique is utilized to linearize the nonlinear term based on ψ function. We obtain the conservation, boundedness, unique solvability and convergence of numerical solutions with the convergence order O(τ² + h²) at length. Furthermore, extending our work to the BBMB equation with the nonlinear source term is considered and a Newton linearized method is inserted to deal with it. The applicability and accuracy of both schemes are demonstrated by numerical experiments.     

Conservative schemes for the symmetric Regularized Long Wave equations

In this paper, we study the Symmetric Regularized Long Wave (SRLW) equations by finite difference method. We design some numerical schemes which preserve the original conservative properties for the equations. The first scheme is two-level and nonlinear-implicit. Existence of its difference solutions are proved by Brouwer fixed point theorem. It is proved by the discrete energy method that the scheme is uniquely solvable, unconditionally stable and second-order convergent for U in L_∞ norm, and for N in L₂ norm on the basis of the priori estimates. The second scheme is three-level and linear-implicit. Its stability and second-order convergence are proved. Both of the two schemes are conservative so can be used for long time computation. However, they are coupled in computing so need more CPU time. Thus we propose another three-level linear scheme which is not only conservative but also uncoupled in computation, and give the numerical analysis on it. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the schemes are accurate and efficient.

Nonlinear scheme with high accuracy for nonlinear coupled parabolic-hyperbolic system

A nonlinear finite difference scheme with high accuracy is studied for a class of two-dimensional nonlinear coupled parabolic-hyperbolic system. Rigorous theoretical analysis is made for the stability and convergence properties of the scheme, which shows it is unconditionally stable and convergent with second order rate for both spatial and temporal variables. In the argument of theoretical results, difficulties arising from the nonlinearity and coupling between parabolic and hyperbolic equations are overcome, by an ingenious use of the method of energy estimation and inductive hypothesis reasoning. The reasoning method here differs from those used for linear implicit schemes, and can be widely applied to the studies of stability and convergence for a variety of nonlinear schemes for nonlinear PDE problems. Numerical tests verify the results of the theoretical analysis. Particularly it is shown that the scheme is more accurate and faster than a previous two-level nonlinear scheme with first order temporal accuracy.

The Camassa–Holm (CH) system is a strong nonlinear third‐order evolution equation. So far, the numerical methods for solving this problem are only a few.

Several numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

On the numerical approach of the enthalpy method for the Stefan problem

In this article an error bound is derived for a piecewise linear finite element approximation of an enthalpy formulation of the Stefan problem; we have analyzed a semidiscrete Galerkin approximation and completely discrete scheme based on the backward Euler method and a linearized scheme is given and its convergence is also proved. A second‐order error estimates are derived for the Crank‐Nicolson Galerkin method. In the second part, a new class of finite difference schemes is proposed. Our approach is to introduce a new variable and transform the given equation into an equivalent system of equations. Then, we prove that the difference scheme is second order convergent. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2004     

Maximum norm error analysis of an unconditionally stable semi‐implicit scheme for multi‐dimensional Allen–Cahn equations

In this paper, a linearized finite difference scheme is proposed for solving the multi‐dimensional Allen–Cahn equation. In the scheme, a modified leap‐frog scheme is used for the time discretization, the nonlinear term is treated in a semi‐implicit way, and the central difference scheme is used for the discretization in space. The proposed method satisfies the discrete energy decay property and is unconditionally stable. Moreover, a maximum norm error analysis is carried out in a rigorous way to show that the method is second‐order accurate both in time and space variables. Finally, numerical tests for both two‐ and three‐dimensional problems are provided to confirm our theoretical findings.

Numerical approximations for the nonlinear time fractional reaction–diffusion equation

In this article, we propose an implicit pseudospectral scheme for nonlinear time fractional reaction–diffusion equations with Neumann boundary conditions, which is based upon Gauss–Lobatto–Legendre–Birkhoff pseudospectral method in space and finite difference method in time. A priori estimate of numerical solution is given firstly. Then the existence of numerical solution is proved by Brouwer fixed point theorem and the uniqueness is obtained. It is proved rigorously that the fully discrete scheme is unconditionally stable and convergent. Furthermore, we develop a modified scheme by adding correction terms for the problem with nonsmooth solutions. Numerical examples are given to verify the theoretical analysis.     

An unconditionally stable linearized difference scheme for the fractional Ginzburg-Landau equation

In this paper, we propose a linearized implicit finite difference scheme for solving the fractional Ginzburg-Landau equation. The scheme, which involves three time levels, is unconditionally stable and second-order accurate in both time and space variables. Moreover, the unique solvability, the unconditional stability, and the convergence of the method in the \(L^{\infty }\)-norm are proved by the energy method and mathematical induction. Compared with the implicit midpoint difference scheme (Wang and Huang J. Comput. Phys. 312, 31–49, 2016), current linearized method generally reduces the computational cost. Finally, numerical results are presented to confirm the theoretical results.
