Abstract

AbstractWe carry out the convergence analysis of the scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) method applied to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which preserves a modified Hamiltonian on the discrete level. We derive a weak and strong convergence result, establish second-order global error bounds and present longtime error estimates on the modified Hamiltonian. In addition, we illustrate the favorable energy conservation of the SAV method compared to classical splitting schemes in certain applications.
