Mass- and energy-conserved numerical schemes for nonlinear Schr\'odinger equations

In this paper, we propose a family of time-stepping schemes for approximating general nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. The proposed schemes all satisfy both mass conservation and energy conservation. Truncation and dispersion error analyses are provided for each proposed scheme. Efficient fixed-point iterative solvers are also constructed to solve the resulting nonlinear discrete problems. As a byproduct, an efficient one-step implementation of the BDF schemes is obtained as well. Extensive numerical experiments are presented to demonstrate the convergence and the capability of capturing the blow-up phenomenon of the proposed schemes.
