Two-derivative Runge-Kutta methods with optimal phase properties

In this work, we consider two-derivative Runge-Kutta methods for the numerical integration of first-order differential equations with oscillatory solution. We construct methods with constant coefficients and special properties as minimum phase-lag and amplification errors with three and four stages. All methods constructed have fifth algebraic order. We also present methods with variable coefficients with zero phase-lag and amplification errors. In order to examine the efficiency of the new methods, we use four well-known oscillatory test problems.
