Abstract
In this paper, a novel structure-preserving scheme is proposed for numerical solving the Schrödinger-Poisson equation. The scheme is obtained by carefully choosing the intermediate average variable in the leap-frog scheme. It is shown that the scheme is mass- and energy-conserving for the equation. More importantly, the scheme is linearly implicit, while the previous mass- and energy-conserving schemes are generally fully implicit. Numerical experiments are presented to confirm the theoretical results.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of Applied Mathematics Letters is to provide a means of rapid publication for important but brief applied mathematical papers. The brief descriptions of any work involving a novel application or utilization of mathematics, or a development in the methodology of applied mathematics is a potential contribution for this journal. This journal''s focus is on applied mathematics topics based on differential equations and linear algebra. Priority will be given to submissions that are likely to appeal to a wide audience.
