Fully Conservative Difference Schemes for the Rotation-Two-Component Camassa-Holm System with Smooth/Nonsmooth Initial Data
share
The rotation-two-component Camassa–Holm system, which possesses strongly nonlinear coupled terms and high-order differential terms, tends to have continuous nonsmooth solitary wave solutions, such as peakons, stumpons, composite waves and even chaotic waves. In this paper an accurate semi-discrete conservative difference scheme for the system is derived by taking advantage of its Hamiltonian invariants. We show that the semi-discrete numerical scheme preserves at least three discrete conservative laws: mass, momentum and energy. Furthermore, a fully discrete finite difference scheme is proposed without destroying anyone of the conservative laws. Combining a nonlinear iteration process and an efficient threshold strategy, the accuracy of the numerical scheme can be guaranteed. Meanwhile, the difference scheme can capture the formation and propagation of solitary wave solutions with satisfying long time behavior under the smooth/nonsmooth initial data. The numerical results reveal a new type of asymmetric wave breaking phenomenon under the nonzero rotational parameter.
