Improving the accuracy of the AVF method

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: The Average Vector Field (AVF) method is a B-series scheme of the second order. As a discrete gradient method it preserves exactly the energy integral for any canonical Hamiltonian system. We present and discuss two locally exact and energy-preserving modifications of the AVF method: AVF-LEX (of the third order) and AVF-SLEX (of the fourth order). Applications to spherically symmetric potentials are given, including a compact explicit expression for the AVF scheme for the Coulomb-Kepler problem.
