Abstract

A new finite difference pair is produced in this paper, for the first time in the literature. The characteristics of the new finite diffence pair are: (1) is of symmetric two-step, (2) is four-stages, (3) is of tenth-algebraic order, (4) the production of the pair is based on the following approximations for the layers: first and second layer are approximated on the point \(x_{n-1}\), third layer is approximated on the point \(x_{n}\) and finally fourth layer is approximated on the point \(x_{n+1}\), (5) has vanished the phase-lag and its first and second derivatives, (6) has excellent stability properties for all type of problems, (7) has an interval of periodicity equal to \(\left( 0, \infty \right) \). We present for the new obtained finite difference pair a full theoretical analysis. The effectiveness of the new developed finite difference pair is proved by its application on systems of coupled differential equations arising from the Schrödinger equation.
