Abstract

Symplectic integrators have many merits compared with traditional integrators: - the numerical solutions have a property of area preserving, - the discretization error in the energy integral does not have a secular term, which means that the accumulated truncation errors in angle variables increase linearly with the time instead of quadratic growth, - the symplectic integrators can integrate an orbit with high eccentricity without change of step-size.
