• Conservative discontinuous Galerkin schemes for the nonlinear Serre equations. • The well-balanced property of the scheme for the equations with non-flat bottoms. • Hamiltonian conservative scheme based on the equations in non-conservative form. • Arbitrary high order accuracy and capability of the schemes are verified numerically. In this paper, we develop three conservative discontinuous Galerkin (DG) schemes for the one-dimensional nonlinear dispersive Serre equations, including two conserved schemes for the equations in conservative form and a Hamiltonian conserved scheme for the equations in non-conservative form. One of the schemes owns the well-balanced property via constructing a high order approximation to the source term for the Serre equations with a non-flat bottom topography. By virtue of the Hamiltonian structure of the Serre equations, we introduce an Hamiltonian invariant and then develop a DG scheme which can preserve the discrete version of such an invariant. Numerical experiments in different cases are performed to verify the accuracy and capability of these DG schemes for solving the Serre equations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
