Abstract
Evolution of the alternating field structure in the high-Q multimode cavity excited by the beam of relativistic electron oscillators is described by a self-consistent set of equations. Stationary and pulse injection regimes are investigated. The injection current increasing over the threshold, three consecutive stages take place: a) stationary single-mode generation (or, correspondingly, generation of identical pulses), b) periodic and c) stochastic self-modulation.

Abstract
A computational scheme is developed to integrate a set of self-consistent equations describing the evolution of the field structure in free electron lasers. The proposed scheme is fourth-order accurate in space and third-order accurate in time. The boundedness of solution is provided by a number of integrals in the scheme. Stationary and pulse electron injection regimes are investigated. In both cases the scheme permits effective calculation of the following regimes: (a) stationary single-mode generation (or, correspondingly, generation of identical pulses), (b) periodic self-modulation, (c) stochastic self-modulation.

Pioneer paper on the operator exponential numerical scheme for the nonlinear Schroedinger equation:

Abstract
Various versions of the split-step Fourier method (SSFM) for the nonlinear Schroedinger equation (NLSE) are presented. New versions are introduced, namely: the operator exponential scheme (OES) and the simplified one (SOES). Comparison between these schemes is made. The approach for comparison is to (a) fix the accuracy; (b) leave mesh parameters free and compare the computing time required to attain such accuracy for various choices of the parameters. The results of our study suggest OES and SOES as effective numerical schemes for NLSE.
