A fourth-order exponential time differencing scheme with dimensional splitting for non-linear reaction-diffusion systems

A fourth-order exponential time differencing (ETD) Runge-Kutta scheme with dimensional splitting is developed to solve multidimensional non-linear systems of reaction-diffusion equations (RDE). By approximating the matrix exponential in the scheme with the A-acceptable Pad\'e (2,2) rational function, the resulting scheme (ETDRK4P22-IF) is verified empirically to be fourth-order accurate for several RDE. The scheme is shown to be more efficient than competing fourth-order ETD and IMEX schemes, achieving up to 20 times speed in CPU time. Inclusion of up to three pre-smoothing steps of a lower order L-stable scheme facilitates efficient damping of spurious oscillations arising from problems with non-smooth initial/boundary conditions.

A second-order exponential time differencing scheme for non-linear reaction-diffusion systems with dimensional splitting

A second-order $L$-stable exponential time-differencing (ETD) method is developed by combining an ETD scheme with approximating the matrix exponentials by rational functions having real distinct poles (RDP), together with a dimensional splitting integrating factor technique. A variety of non-linear reaction-diffusion equations in two and three dimensions with either Dirichlet, Neumann, or periodic boundary conditions are solved with this scheme and shown to outperform a variety of other second-order implicit-explicit schemes. An additional performance boost is gained through further use of basic parallelization techniques.
