High order explicit symplectic integrators for the Discrete Non Linear Schrödinger equation

We propose a family of reliable symplectic integrators adapted to the Discrete Non-Linear Schrödinger equation; based on an idea of Yoshida (H. Yoshida, Construction of higher order symplectic integrators, Physics Letters A, 150, 5,6,7, (1990), pp. 262.) we can construct high order numerical schemes, that result to be explicit methods and thus very fast. The performances of the integrators are discussed, studied as functions of the integration time step and compared with some non symplectic methods.
