Arbitrary high-order linearly implicit energy-preserving algorithms for Hamiltonian PDEs.

In this paper, we present a novel strategy to systematically construct linearly implicit energy-preserving schemes with arbitrary order of accuracy for Hamiltonian PDEs. Such a novel strategy is based on the newly developed exponential scalar auxiliary variable (ESAV) approach that can remove the bounded-from-below restriction of nonlinear terms in the Hamiltonian functional and provides a totally explicit discretization of the auxiliary variable without computing extra inner products. So it is more effective and applicable than the traditional scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) approach. To achieve arbitrary high-order accuracy and energy preservation, we utilize symplectic Runge-Kutta methods for both solution variables and the auxiliary variable, where the values of the internal stages in nonlinear terms are explicitly derived via an extrapolation from numerical solutions already obtained in the preceding calculation. A prediction-correction strategy is proposed to further improve the accuracy. Fourier pseudo-spectral method is then employed to obtain fully discrete schemes. Compared with the SAV schemes, the solution variables and the auxiliary variable in these ESAV schemes are now decoupled. Moreover, when the linear terms have constant coefficients, the solution variables can be explicitly solved by using the fast Fourier transform. Numerical experiments are carried out for three Hamiltonian PDEs to demonstrate the efficiency and conservation of the ESAV schemes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
