High-order energy-conserving Line Integral Methods for charged particle dynamics

L. Brugnano, J. I. Montijano, L. Rández

In this paper we study arbitrarily high-order energy-conserving methods for simulating the dynamics of a charged particle. They are derived and studied within the framework of Line Integral Methods (LIMs), previously used for defining Hamiltonian Boundary Value Methods (HBVMs), a class of energy-conserving Runge-Kutta methods for Hamiltonian problems. A complete analysis of the new methods is provided, which is confirmed by a few numerical tests.

Efficient implementation of Radau collocation methods

L. Brugnano, F. Iavernaro, C. Magherini

In this paper we define an efficient implementation of Runge-Kutta methods of Radau IIA type, which are commonly used when solving stiff ODE-IVPs problems. The proposed implementation relies on an alternative low-rank formulation of the methods, for which a splitting procedure is easily defined. The linear convergence analysis of this splitting procedure exhibits excellent properties, which are confirmed by its performance on a few numerical tests.
