“…In the last few decades, various structure-preserving methods have been developed for solving the NKGE (2.1), including symplectic methods ( e.g., see [9,22,24]), multisymplectic methods (e.g., see [17,26,30,37]) and energy-preserving methods (e.g., see [1,6,12,31]), local momentum-preserving methods (e.g., see [19,32]), etc. However, there has been no reference considering a linearly implicit structure-preserving exponential scheme for the NKGE (2.1) to our knowledge.…”
