A conservative spectral collocation method for the nonlinear Schr?dinger equation in two dimensions

摘要

Abstract In this study, we present a conservative Fourier spectral collocation (FSC) method to solve the two-dimensional nonlinear Schr?dinger (NLS) equation. We prove that the proposed method preserves the mass and energy conservation laws in semi-discrete formulations. Using the spectral differentiation matrices, the NLS equation is reduced to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The compact implicit integration factor (cIIF) method is later developed for the nonlinear ODEs. In this approach, the storage and CPU cost are significantly reduced such that the use of cIIF method becomes attractive for two-dimensional NLS equation. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the conservation, accuracy, and efficiency of the method. ]]>
