Abstract

In this article, a decoupled and linearized compact finite difference scheme is proposed for solving the coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. The new scheme is proved to preserve the total mass and energy which are defined by using a recursion relationship. Besides the standard energy method, an induction argument together with an H1 technique are introduced to establish the optimal point‐wise error estimate of the proposed scheme. Without imposing any constraints on the grid ratios, the convergence order of the numerical solution is proved to be of with mesh size h and time step τ. Numerical results are reported to verify the theoretical analysis, and collision of two solitary waves are also simulated. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
