Abstract
The methods of integrating the nonlinear Vlasov equation are reviewed, compared and interrelations are investigated. Another method is given which allows a truncation of the resulting infinite matrix without causing numerical instabilities. Its application to the linear and nonlinear Vlasov equation is discussed. It is shown that the cause for numerical instability is based on approximating a continuous eigenvalue spectrum by a discrete spectrum.
