Abstract
This paper presents modifications of Krylov Subspace Spectral (KSS) Methods, which build on the work of Gene Golub and others pertaining to moments and Gaussian quadrature to produce high-order accurate approximate solutions to the time-dependent Schrödinger equation in the case where either the potential energy or the initial data is not a smooth function. These modifications consist of using various symmetric perturbations to compute off-diagonal elements of functions of matrices. It is demonstrated through analytical and numerical results that KSS methods, with these modifications, achieve the same high-order accuracy and possess the same stability properties as they do when applied to parabolic problems, even though the solutions to the Schrödinger equation do not possess the same smoothness.
