Asymptotic-Preserving Exponential Integrators applied to the Hyperbolic Korteweg-de Vries System
Abstract
We study the application of exponential time integration methods, coupled with Fourier pseudospectral space discretization, to the hyperbolic Korteweg-de Vries (KdVH) system. We investigate the asymptotic preserving (AP) properties of such discretizations, showing that, in general, Lawson methods are not asymptotic preserving, because the auxiliary (derivative-approximating) variables do not satisfy the limit equilibrium manifold, whereas exponential time differencing (ETD) methods are AP for all components, including both the solution variable and the auxiliary variables. We also present an efficient numerical implementation based on an exact formula for the matrix exponential of this system, and compare it with previously-proposed ImEx Runge-Kutta time integration, showing that exponential methods can be competitive in this context.
