Handy formulas
$$
\begin{align*}
[D_t^+ A^n e^{ikq\Delta x}]^n &= A^n e^{ikq\Delta x}\frac{A-1}{\Delta t},\\
[D_t^- A^n e^{ikq\Delta x}]^n &= A^n e^{ikq\Delta x}\frac{1-A^{-1}}{\Delta t},\\
[D_t A^n e^{ikq\Delta x}]^{n+\half} &= A^{n+\half} e^{ikq\Delta x}\frac{A^{\half}-A^{-\half}}{\Delta t} = A^ne^{ikq\Delta x}\frac{A-1}{\Delta t},\\
[D_xD_x A^ne^{ikq\Delta x}]_q &= -A^n \frac{4}{\Delta x^2}\sin^2\left(\frac{k\Delta x}{2}\right)
\end{align*}
