An eighth order exponentially fitted method is developed for the numerical integration of the Schrödinger equation. The formula considered contains certain free parameters which allow it to be fitted automatically to exponential functions. This is the first eighth order exponentially fitted method in the literature. Numerical results also indicate that the new method is much more accurate than other classical and exponentially fitted methods.

We present here an accurate exponentially fitted explicit four-step method for the numerical integration of the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation. The formula considered contains free parameters which are defined in order to integrate exponential functions. We note that this is the first explicit four-step exponentially fitted method in the literature. Numerical results also indicate that the new method is much more accurate than other well-known methods.

In this paper we present a singularly P-stable exponentially — fitted four-step method for the numerical solution of the radial Schrödinger equation. More specifically we present a method that is singularly P-stable (a concept later introduced in this paper) and also integrates exactly any linear combination of the functions {1, x, x2, x3, x4, x5, exp (±Ivx)}. The numerical experimentation showed that our method is considerably more efficient compared to well-known methods used for the numerical solution of resonance problem of the radial Schrödinger equation.

We present here an accurate method for the numerical integration of the radial Schrödinger equation. The formula considered contains free parameter which are defined in order to integrate exponential functions. Numerical results also indicate that the new methods are much more accurate than other Numerov-type well-known methods.
