Line Integral solution of Hamiltonian PDEs

In this paper, we report about recent findings in the numerical solution of Hamiltonian Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), by using energy-conserving line integral methods in the Hamiltonian Boundary Value Methods (HBVMs) class. In particular, we consider the semilinear wave equation, the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation, and the Korteweg-de Vries equation, to illustrate the main features of this novel approach.
