✦ Synopsis


We present an algorithm for numerically integrating non-autonomous Hamiltonian differential equations. Special attention is paid to the separable case and, in particular, a new fourth-order splitting method is presented which in a certain measure is optimal. In combination with a new way of handling non-autonomous problems, the schemes we present are based on Magnus expansions and they show very promising results when applied to Hamiltonian ODEs and PDEs.

Exact boundary controllability for non-a

## Abstract In this paper, we first show that quite different from the autonomous case, the exact boundary controllability for non‐autonomous wave equations possesses various possibilities. Then we adopt a constructive method to establish the exact boundary controllability for one‐dimensional non‐a

We apply the method of operator splitting on the generalized Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation u t + f (u) x + εu xxx = 0, by solving the nonlinear conservation law u t + f (u) x = 0 and the linear dispersive equation u t + εu xxx = 0 sequentially. We prove that if the approximation obtained by opera

A number of conservative PDEs, like various wave equations, allow for a multisymplectic formulation which can be viewed as a generalization of the symplectic structure of Hamiltonian ODEs. We show that Gauss-Legendre collocation in space and time leads to multi-symplectic integrators, i.e., to numer
