Error analysis of high-order splitting methods for nonlinear evolutionary Schrödinger equations and application to the MCTDHF equations in electron dynamics

Othmar Koch, Christof Neuhauser, Mechthild Thalhammer (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

In this work, the error behaviour of high-order exponential operator splitting methods for the time integration of nonlinear evolutionary Schrödinger equations is investigated. The theoretical analysis utilises the framework of abstract evolution equations on Banach spaces and the formal calculus of Lie derivatives. The general approach is substantiated on the basis of a convergence result for exponential operator splitting methods of (nonstiff) order applied to the multi-configuration...

The continuous Coupled Cluster formulation for the electronic Schrödinger equation

Thorsten Rohwedder (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

Nowadays, the Coupled Cluster (CC) method is the probably most widely used high precision method for the solution of the main equation of electronic structure calculation, the . Traditionally, the equations of CC are formulated as a nonlinear approximation of a Galerkin solution of the electronic Schrödinger equation, within a given discrete subspace. Unfortunately, this concept prohibits the direct application of concepts of nonlinear numerical analysis to obtain existence and uniqueness...

error analysis for the Crank-Nicolson method for linear Schrödinger equations

Irene Kyza (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We prove error estimates of optimal order for linear Schrödinger-type equations in the ( )- and the ( )-norm. We discretize only in time by the Crank-Nicolson method. The direct use of the reconstruction technique, as it has been proposed by Akrivis in [ (2006) 511–531], leads to upper bounds that are of optimal order in the ( )-norm, but of suboptimal order in the ...

Multi-bump solutions for nonlinear Schrödinger equations with electromagnetic fields

Huirong Pi, Chunhua Wang (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this paper, we are concerned with the existence of multi-bump solutions for a nonlinear Schrödinger equations with electromagnetic fields. We prove under some suitable conditions that for any positive integer , there exists () > 0 such that, for 0 <  < (), the problem has an -bump complex-valued solution. As a result, when  → 0, the equation has more and more multi-bump complex-valued solutions.

Optimal convergence rates of mortar finite element methods for second-order elliptic problems

Faker Ben Belgacem, Padmanabhan Seshaiyer, Manil Suri (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We present an improved, near-optimal error estimate for a non-conforming finite element method, called the mortar method (M0). We also present a new mortaring technique, called the mortar method (MP), and derive , and error estimates for it, in the presence of quasiuniform and non-quasiuniform meshes. Our theoretical results, augmented by the computational evidence we present, show that like (M0), (MP) is also a viable mortaring technique for the method.

Controllability of Schrödinger equation with a nonlocal term

Mariano De Leo, Constanza Sánchez Fernández de la Vega, Diego Rial (2014)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

This paper is concerned with the internal distributed control problem for the 1D Schrödinger equation,   () = − +() +() , that arises in quantum semiconductor models. Here () is a non local Hartree–type nonlinearity stemming from the coupling with the 1D Poisson equation, and () is a regular function with linear growth at infinity, including constant electric fields. By means of both the Hilbert Uniqueness Method and the contraction mapping theorem it is...

Analysis of an Asymptotic Preserving Scheme for Relaxation Systems

Francis Filbet, Amélie Rambaud (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

We consider an asymptotic preserving numerical scheme initially proposed by F. Filbet and S. Jin [229 (2010)] and G. Dimarco and L. Pareschi [49 (2011) 2057–2077] in the context of nonlinear and stiff kinetic equations. Here, we propose a convergence analysis of such a scheme for the approximation of a system of transport equations with a nonlinear source term, for which the asymptotic limit is given by a conservation law. We investigate the convergence of the approximate solution ( ...
