Abstract In this paper, we introduce a new framework for deriving partitioned implicit-exponential integrators for stiff systems of ordinary differential equations and construct several time integrators of this type. The new approach is suited for solving systems of equations where the forcing term is comprised of several additive nonlinear terms. We analyze the stability, convergence, and efficiency of the new integrators and compare their performance with existing schemes for such systems using several numerical examples. We also propose a novel approach to visualizing the linear stability of the partitioned schemes, which provides a more intuitive way to understand and compare the stability properties of various schemes. Our new integrators are A-stable, second-order methods that require only one call to the linear system solver and one exponential-like matrix function evaluation per time step.more » « less

Ong, B.; Schroder, J.; Shipton, J.; Friedhoff, S (Ed.)Parareal is a widely studied parallel-in-time method that can achieve meaningful speedup on certain problems. However, it is well known that the method typically performs poorly on non-diffusive equations. This paper analyzes linear stability and convergence for IMEX Runge-Kutta Parareal methods on non-diffusive equations. By combining standard linear stability analysis with a simple convergence analysis, we find that certain Parareal configurations can achieve parallel speedup on non-diffusive equations. These stable configurations possess low iteration counts, large block sizes, and a large number of processors. Numerical examples using the nonlinear Schrödinger equation demonstrate the analytical conclusions.more » « less
