✦ Synopsis

In this work we construct new Runge-Kutta-Nyström methods especially designed to integrate exactly the test equation y = -w 2 y. We modify two existing methods: the Runge-Kutta-Nyström methods of fifth and sixth order. We apply the new methods to the computation of the eigenvalues of the Schrödinger equation with different potentials such as the harmonic oscillator, the doubly anharmonic oscillator and the exponential potential.

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 othe
