Multistep methods on manifolds

From MaRDI portal





The author discusses the preservation of invariants of an ordinary differential equation in a numerical integration. He considers methods of Taylor type, i.e. methods of order \(p\) where the leading term in the error analysis is given by the \((p+1)\)th derivative of the solution. Many classical numerical schemes are of this type, in particular multistep methods; a notable exception are Runge-Kutta schemes. It is first shown that an invariant can be preserved by a method of Taylor type only, if it satisfies the Bateman equation, then that this implies that the invariant must be linear.
