A direct Numerov sixth order numerical scheme to accurately solve the unidimensional Poisson equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions

arXiv:0712.1706

Abstract

In this article, we present an analytical direct method, based on a Numerov three-point scheme, which is sixth order accurate and has a linear execution time on the grid dimension, to solve the discrete one-dimensional Poisson equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Our results should improve numerical codes used mainly in self-consistent calculations in solid state physics.
