The extended Pouzet-Runge-Kutta methods for nonlinear neutral delay-integro-differential equations (Q708826): Difference between revisions

The authors investigate stability properties for numerical methods of the class noted in the title, for the equations \[ \frac{d}{dt}\left[y\left(t\right) - Ny\left( {t - \tau} \right)\right] = f\left(t,y\left( {t} \right),y\left( {t - \tau} \right),\int_{t - \tau} ^{t} {g\left( {t,\xi ,y\left( {\xi} \right)} \right)d\xi}\right),\;t \geq t_{0}, \] with a function \(y(t)\) given on the interval \([t_{0} - \tau,t_{0}]\), in a \(d\)-dimensional complex space. These compound methods are created on the base of the classical Runge-Kutta (RK) methods for nonlinear ordinary differential equations, and a Pouzet quadrature formula for integrals in the right-hand side of the equation to be solved. The ``nonlinear stability'' of the extended Pouzet-Runge-Kutta methods means global and asymptotical stability in the Lyapunov sense. The obtained nonlinear stability results are based on the concept of ``algebraic stability'' of RK-methods by \textit{K. Burrage} and \textit{J. C. Butcher} [BIT, Nord. Tidskr. Inf.-behandl. 20, 185--203 (1980; Zbl 0431.65051 )]. Numerical examples illustrate the theoretical results.
