An overlapping domain decomposition splitting algorithm for stochastic nonlinear Schroedinger equation

A novel overlapping domain decomposition splitting algorithm based on a Crank-Nisolson method is developed for the stochastic nonlinear Schroedinger equation driven by a multiplicative noise with non-periodic boundary conditions. The proposed algorithm can significantly reduce the computational cost while maintaining the similar conservation laws. Numerical experiments are dedicated to illustrating the capability of the algorithm for different spatial dimensions, as well as the various initial conditions. In particular, we compare the performance of the overlapping domain decomposition splitting algorithm with the stochastic multi-symplectic method in [S. Jiang, L. Wang and J. Hong, Commun. Comput. Phys., 2013] and the finite difference splitting scheme in [J. Cui, J. Hong, Z. Liu and W. Zhou, J. Differ. Equ., 2019]. We observe that our proposed algorithm has excellent computational efficiency and is highly competitive. It provides a useful tool for solving stochastic partial differential equations.
