Tldr We develop a unified framework combining discrete gradient methods with the Scalar Auxiliary Variable approach to construct integrators for dissipative and conservative systems. This novel framework yields three structure-preserving schemes: first-order semi-implicit Forward Euler, second-order self-adjoint Midpoint, and second-order Predictive scheme, all derived by lifting dynamics to an extended state space on which modified energy has a discrete-gradient identity.
