Abstract: We consider the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation describing the dynamics of rotating Bose-Einstein condensates and its discretization with the finite element method. We analyze a mass conserving Crank-Nicolson-type discretization and prove corresponding a priori error estimates with respect to the maximum norm in time and the L2- and energy-norm in space. The estimates show that we obtain optimal convergence rates under the assumption of additional regularity for the solution to the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. We demonstrate the performance of the method in numerical experiments.
