Abstract

This paper presents a coherent analysis of the finite difference method to nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations in one spatial dimension. We use the discrete H1 framework to establish well-posedness and error estimates in the L norm. The nonlinearity f(u) of a NLS equation is assumed to satisfy only a growth condition. We apply our results to computation of blow-up solutions for a NLS equation with the nonlinearity f(u) = -
