An efficient spectral-Galerkin continuation method for numerical solution of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) in a square-shaped domain are presented. The basic formulas are derived by utilizing certain easily computed eigenvalue problems. The standard potential (parabolic or quadruple-well) is perturbed by sine or cosine functions. The main goal is to investigate the ground and first excited-state solutions of the GPE. A large number of numerical experiments that illustrate the developed methodology are provided and discussed.
