Comparison of numerical integrators for nonlinear dispersive equations


In this lecture we will compare various numerical methods (e.g., Splitting methods, exponential integrators, Fourier integrators) for nonlinear dispersive equations. We will in particular study their error behavior with respect to the regularity of the solution, the conservation of geometric structures and long time behavior. Our model problems thereby include fundamental models such as the nonlinear Schrödinger and Korteweg-de Vries equation.

Prerequisites: lecture on theoretical and numerical analysis of partial differential equations
