Abstract: The stability and accuracy of numerical methods for reaction-diffusion equations still need improvements, which prompts the development of high-order and stable time-stepping methods. This is particularly true in the context of cardiac electrophysiology, where reaction-diffusion equations are coupled with stiff systems of ordinary differential equations. So as to address these issues, much research on implicit-explicit methods and exponential integrators has been carried out during the past 15 years. In 2009, Perego and Veneziani [Electron. Trans. Numer. Anal., 35 (2009), pp. 234–256] proposed an innovative time-stepping scheme of order 2. In this paper we present an extension of this scheme to the orders 3 and 4, which we call Rush-Larsen schemes of order k. These new schemes are explicit multistep methods, which belong to the classical class of exponential integrators. Their general formulation is simple and easy to implement. We prove that they are stable under perturbation and convergent of order k. We analyze their Dahlquist stability and show that they have a very large stability domain provided that the stabilizer associated with the method captures well enough the stiff modes of the problem. We study their application to a system of equations that models the action potential in cardiac electrophysiology. Keywords: stiff equations, explicit high-order multistep methods, exponential integrators, stability and convergence, Dahlquist stability Published Online: 2020/06/29 07:39:01 Object Identifier: 0xc1aa5576 0x003ba13a Rights: . Electronic Transactions on Numerical Analysis (ETNA) is an electronic journal for the publication of significant new developments in numerical analysis and scientific computing. Papers of the highest quality that deal with the analysis of algorithms for the solution of continuous models and numerical linear algebra are appropriate for ETNA, as are papers of similar quality that discuss implementation and performance of such algorithms. New algorithms for current or new computer architectures are appropriate provided that they are numerically sound. However, the focus of the publication should be on the algorithm rather than on the architecture. The journal is published by the Kent State University Library in conjunction with the Institute of Computational Mathematics at Kent State University, and in cooperation with the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (RICAM). Reviews of all ETNA papers appear in Mathematical Reviews and Zentralblatt für Mathematik. Reference information for ETNA papers also appears in the expanded Science Citation Index. ETNA is registered with the Library of Congress and has ISSN 1068-9613. …
