Optimizing a Hybrid Two-Step Method for the Numerical Solution of the Schrödinger Equation and Related Problems with Respect to Phase-Lag
Abstract
We use a methodology of optimization of the efficiency of a hybrid two-step method for the numerical solution of the radial Schrödinger equation and related problems with periodic or oscillating solutions. More specifically, we study how the vanishing of the phase-lag and its derivatives optimizes the efficiency of the hybrid two-step method.
