Abstract
This paper describes an updated Fourier based split-step method that can be applied to a greater class of partial differential equations, than previous methods would allow. These equations arise in physics and engineering, a notable example being the generalized non-linear Schr\"odinger equation that arises in non-linear optics with self-steepening terms. These differential equations feature terms that were previously inaccessible to model accurately with low computational resources. The new method maintains a 3rd order error even with these additional terms and models the equation in all three spatial dimensions and time. The class of non-linear differential equations that this method applies is shown. The method is fully derived and implementation of the method in the split-step architecture is shown. This paper lays the mathematical ground work for an upcoming paper employing this method in white-light generation simulations in bulk material.
