Abstract

In this paper, an implicit finite difference scheme for the nonlinear time-space-fractional Schrödinger equation is presented. It is shown that the implicit scheme is unconditionally stable with experimental convergence order of O(τ2−α+h2), where τ and h are time and space stepsizes, respectively, and α (0<α<1) is the fractional-order in time. In order to reduce the computational cost, the explicit–implicit scheme is proposed such that the nonlinear term is easily treated. Meanwhile, the implicit finite difference scheme for the coupled time-space-fractional Schrödinger system is also presented, which is unconditionally stable too. Numerical examples are given to support the theoretical analysis.
