Unconditional optimal convergence of a relaxation Crank-Nicolson difference scheme for 2D space-fractional NLS

Abstract

In this paper, we develop a linearly implicit relaxation Crank-Nicolson difference scheme for the two-dimensional space-fractional nonlinear Schrödinger (SFNS) equation, where the fractional Laplacian is approximated by a simple fractional central difference scheme. The proposed scheme is uniquely solvable and conserves discrete mass for general real-valued nonlinear coefficients, and a modified discrete energy in the cubic case. By introducing a modified error system employing a cut-off technique, we establish the optimal-order error estimates without mesh-ratio restriction. Specifically, the primary variable achieves second-order temporal and spatial convergence in the discrete Hhα/2-norm, and the relaxation variable satisfies the same convergence in the discrete L2-norm. Some numerical experiments confirm the relevant theoretical results.
