A numerical approach for a semilinear parabolic equation with a nonlocal boundary condition (Q2271960)

The authors study a semilinear parabolic equation with a nonlocal Robin boundary condition and propose an easy implementable algorithm for computations, which is based on suitable linearization and on the superposition principle. They derive the stability results and prove the optimal convergence rates, which are confirmed by some numerical examples. The advantage of the authors' scheme is that it is valid for multi-dimensional cases and does not need the monotone iterative procedure.
