✦ Synopsis


A new sixth-order Runge-Kutta type method is developed for the numerical integration of the one-dimensional Schrodinger equation. The formula developed contains certain free parameters which allows it to be fitted automatically to exponential functions. We give a comparative error analysis with other sixth-order exponentially fitted methods. The theoretical and numerical results indicate that the new method is more accurate than the other exponentially fitted methods.

By using the methods of perturbation theory it is possible to construct simple formulae for the numerical integration of the Schrodinger equation, and also to calculate expectation values solely by means of simple eigenvalue calculations. 1. The basic theory may be a multiplicative operator instead
