β¦ Synopsis
Several recently developed multisymplectic schemes for Hamiltonian PDEs have been shown to preserve associated local conservation laws and constraints very well in long time numerical simulations. Backward error analysis for PDEs, or the method of modified equations, is a useful technique for studying the qualitative behavior of a discretization and provides insight into the preservation properties of the scheme. In this paper we initiate a backward error analysis for PDE discretizations, in particular of multisymplectic box schemes for the nonlinear SchrΓΆdinger equation. We show that the associated modified differential equations are also multisymplectic and derive the modified conservation laws which are satisfied to higher order by the numerical solution. Higher order preservation of the modified local conservation laws is verified numerically.

In this paper, the multisymplectic integrator for a class of Hamiltonian PDEs depending explicitly on time and spatial variables (nonautonomous Hamiltonian PDEs) is defined, and the multisymplecticity of the centred box scheme for this kind of Hamiltonian PDEs is proven. We give an application of th
A numerical method for reaction-di usion equations with analytic nonlinearity is presented, for which a rigorous backward error analysis is possible. We construct a modiΓΏed equation, which describes the behavior of the full discretization scheme up to exponentially small errors in the step size. In
## Abstract The paper is devoted to a __posteriori__ quantitative analysis for errors caused by linearization of nonβlinear elliptic boundary value problems and their finite element realizations. We employ duality theory in convex analysis to derive computable bounds on the difference between the s
