So, I’m now even more confused.
I’m attempting to solve an equation that looks like this:
u’ = -i(H0 + e(t) D) u
Where H0 is a purely real diagonal matrix, D is an off-diagonal block
matrix, and e(t) is a function of time (The schrödinger equation in the
energy basis).
I’ve rewritten the e(t) function in my code to just return 0.0. So the
new equation is just u’ = -iH0 u. The matrix is time independent and
diagonal (I’ve checked this). H0[0] ~= -.5 (with no imaginary
component). and u(t=0) = [1,0,0,0,..]
This problem SHOULD be incredibly simple: u’ = i (0.5) u.
However, I’m still getting the same blowup with the TS.:
//with e(t) == 0
//TS
t: 0 step: 0 norm-1: 0
t: 0.01 step: 1 norm-1: 0
t: 0.02 step: 2 norm-1: 0.9999953125635765
t: 0.03 step: 3 norm-1: 2.999981250276277
//Hand rolled

t: 0.02 norm-1: 0 ef 0
t: 0.03 norm-1: -1.110223024625157e-16 ef 0
——————————————————————————————
//with e(t) != 0
//TS
t: 0 step: 0 norm-1: 0
t: 0.01 step: 1 norm-1: 0
t: 0.02 step: 2 norm-1: 0.9999953125635765
t: 0.03 step: 3 norm-1: 2.999981250276277

t: 0.03 norm-1: -1.110223024625157e-16 ef 2.558187954267552e-09
I’ve updated the gist.

Andrew,
I'm afraid Emil will have to take a look at this and explain it. The
-ts_type beuler and -ts_type theta -ts_theta_theta .5 are stable but
the -ts_type cn is not stable. It turns out that -ts_type cn is
equivalent to -ts_type theta -ts_theta_theta .5 -ts_theta_endpoint
and somehow this endpoint business (which I don't understand) is
causing a problem. Meanwhile if I add -ts_theta_adapt to the
endpoint one it becomes stable ? Anyways all cases are displayed below.
Emil,
What's up with this? Does the endpoint business have a bug or can it
not be used for this problem (the matrix A is a function of t.)

thought that the RHSJacobian function was only meant to create A,
since dG/du = A(t) (for this special case).

responsibility — to create the jacobian — correct? In my case this

nonlinear problems (A(t) also depends on U(t)). In my case, I don’t
even look at the solution vector (because my A(t) doesn’t depend on

The third step for petsc has a norm of ~4, while the directly
