Popis: The energy dissipation law and the maximum bound principle are two critical physical properties of the Allen--Cahn equations. While many existing time-stepping methods are known to preserve the energy dissipation law, most apply to a modified form of energy. In this work, we demonstrate that, when the nonlinear term of the Allen--Cahn equation is Lipschitz continuous, a class of arbitrarily high-order exponential time differencing Runge--Kutta (ETDRK) schemes preserve the original energy dissipation property, under a mild step-size constraint. Additionally, we guarantee the Lipschitz condition on the nonlinear term by applying a rescaling post-processing technique, which ensures that the numerical solution unconditionally satisfies the maximum bound principle. Consequently, our proposed schemes maintain both the original energy dissipation law and the maximum bound principle and can achieve arbitrarily high-order accuracy. We also establish an optimal error estimate for the proposed schemes. Some numerical experiments are carried out to verify our theoretical results.
