The source-free nature of the Lorentz vector field has been investigated. Based on the volume-preserving property of the dynamics, a class of numerical methods for advancing the charged particles in a general electromagnetic field has been constructed by splitting the classical evolution operator. This new class of numerical methods, which includes the Boris algorithm as a special case, can conserve phase space volume, and globally bound the numerical errors in energy, momentum, and some adiabatic invariants up to the order of the method over a very long simulation time. The derived numerical methods can be computed explicitly, and thus are effective for the long-term simulation of the multi-scale dynamics of plasmas.
