Abstract

The construction of symmetric and symplectic exponentially-fitted Runge---Kutta methods for the numerical integration of Hamiltonian systems with oscillatory solutions deserves a lot of interest. In previous papers fourth-order and sixth-order symplectic exponentially-fitted integrators of Gauss type, either with fixed or variable nodes, have been derived. In this paper new such integrators of eighth-order are studied and constructed by making use of the six-step procedure of Ixaru and Vanden Berghe (2004). Numerical experiments for some oscillatory problems are presented.
