Schwarz waveform relaxation method for one-dimensional Schrödinger equation with general potential (Q509635)

The authors apply the Schwarz waveform relaxation method to the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation with a general linear or nonlinear potential (see [\textit{L. Halpern} and \textit{J. Szeftel}, Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci. 20, No. 12, 2167--2199 (2010; Zbl 1213.35192)]). New algorithms for the Schrödinger equation with time-independent linear-potential and a preconditioned algorithm for general potentials are presented. The algorithms for both cases are scalable and reduce significantly the computation time. Some newly constructed absorbing boundary conditions [\textit{X. Antoine} et al., J. Sci. Comput. 64, No. 3, 620--646 (2015; Zbl 1332.78026)] are used as the transmission condition and compared numerically in the framework of the proposed algorithms. The authors adopt the codes developed for Cpus to Gpus, which accelerate the computation.
