Abstract: The goal of the present work is to solve a linear dispersive equation with variable coefficient advection on an unbounded domain. In this setting, transparent boundary conditions are vital to allow waves to leave (or even re-enter) the, necessarily finite, computational domain. To obtain an efficient numerical scheme we discretize space using a spectral method. This allows us to drastically reduce the number of grid points required for a given accuracy. Applying a fully implicit time integrator, however, would require us to invert full matrices. This is addressed by performing an operator splitting scheme and only treating the third order differential operator, stemming from the dispersive part, implicitly; this approach can also be interpreted as an implicit-explicit scheme. However, the fact that the transparent boundary conditions are non-homogeneous and depend implicitly on the numerical solution presents a significant obstacle for the splitting/pseudo-spectral approach investigated here. We show how to overcome these difficulties and demonstrate the proposed numerical scheme by performing a number of numerical simulations.
