Exponentially fitted symmetric and symplectic DIRK methods for oscillatory Hamiltonian systems

Abstract

The order conditions for modified Runge–Kutta methods are derived via the rooted trees. Symmetry and symplecticity conditions and exponential fitting conditions for modified diagonally implicit Runge–Kutta (DIRK) are considered. Three new exponentially fitted symmetric and symplectic diagonally implicit Runge–Kutta (EFSSDIRK) methods of respective second order and fourth order are constructed. Phase properties of the new methods are analyzed. The new EFSSDIRK methods are applied to several Hamiltonian problems and compared to the results obtained by the existing symplectic DIRK methods in the literature.
