Numerical Treatment Of A Nonlinear Hyperbolic Equation

In this work we consider a nonlinear elliptic partial differential equation, which is derived from an application of a nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Using a variational approach on this problem leads to an optimization problem with a nonlinear constraint. A numerical solution based on finite-element method is used. We propose a new iterative algorithm to relax this problem to a quadratic version
