Long term analysis of a geometric low-regularity integrator for nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation (2312.14062v3)

Abstract: In this paper, we formulate and analyse a geometric low-regularity integrator for solving the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation in the $d$-dimensional space with $d=1,2,3$. The integrator is constructed based on the two-step trigonometric method and thus it has a simple form. Error estimates are rigorously presented to show that the integrator can achieve second-order time accuracy in the energy space under the regularity requirement in $H^{1+\frac{d}{4}}\times H^{\frac{d}{4}}$. Moreover, the time symmetry of the scheme ensures its good long-time energy conservation which is rigorously proved by the technique of modulated Fourier expansions. A numerical test is presented and the numerical results demonstrate the superiorities of the new integrator over some existing methods.
