Abstract: | In this article, it is proved that explicit Lawson methods, when projected onto one of the invariants of nonlinear Schrödinger equation (norm) are also automatically projected onto another invariant (momentum) for many solutions. As this procedure is very cheap and geometric because two invariants are conserved, it offers an efficient tool to integrate some solutions of this equation till long times. On the other hand, we show a detailed study on the numerical performance of these methods against splitting ones, with fixed and variable stepsize implementation. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
