Explicit high-order energy-preserving methods for general Hamiltonian partial differential equations

A novel class of explicit high-order energy-preserving methods are proposed for general Hamiltonian partial differential equations with non-canonical structure matrix. When the energy is not quadratic, it is firstly done that the original system is reformulated into an equivalent form with a modified quadratic energy conservation law by the energy quadratization approach. Then the resulting system that satisfies the quadratic energy conservation law is discretized in time by combining explicit high-order Runge-Kutta methods with orthogonal projection techniques. The proposed schemes are shown to share the order of explicit Runge-Kutta method and thus can reach the desired high-order accuracy. Moreover, the methods are energy-preserving and explicit because the projection step can be solved explicitly. Numerical results are addressed to demonstrate the remarkable superiority of the proposed schemes in comparison with other structure-preserving methods.
