Abstract: A fast explicit operator splitting (FEOS) method for the molecular beam epitaxy model has been presented in [Cheng, et al., Fast and stable explicit operator splitting methods for phase-field models, J. Comput. Phys., submitted]. The original problem is split into linear and nonlinear subproblems. For the linear part, the pseudo-spectral method is adopted; for the nonlinear part, a 33-point difference scheme is constructed. Here, we give a compact center-difference scheme involving fewer points for the nonlinear subproblem. Besides, we analyze the convergence rate of the algorithm. The global error order $mathcalO(a{u}^2+h^4)$ in discrete $L^2$-norm is proved theoretically and verified numerically. Some numerical experiments show the robustness of the algorithm for small coefficients of the fourth-order term for the one-dimensional case. Besides, coarsening dynamics are simulated in large domains and the $1/3$ power laws are observed for the two-dimensional case.
