Abstract: Motivated by the paraxial narrow-angle approximation of the Helmholtz equation in domains of variable topography that appears as an important application in Underwater Acoustics, we analyze a general Schr"odinger-type equation posed on two-dimensional variable domains with mixed boundary conditions. The resulting initial- and boundary-value problem is transformed into an equivalent one posed on a rectangular domain and is approximated by fully discrete, L2-stable, finite element, Crank--Nicolson type schemes. We prove a global elliptic regularity theorem for complex elliptic boundary value problems with mixed conditions and derive L2-error estimates of optimal order. Numerical experiments are presented which verify the optimal rate of convergence.
