Abstract:
In this work a systematic procedure is implemented in order to minimise the computational cost of the Runge--Kutta--Munthe-Kaas (RKMK) class of Lie-group solvers. The process consists of the application of a linear transformation to the stages of the method and the analysis of a graded free Lie algebra to reduce the number of commutators involved. We consider here RKMK integration methods up to order seven based on some of the most popular Runge--Kutta schemes.
