A fast method for solving second Order boundary value volterra Integro-differential equations

From MaRDI portal





The authors examine an efficient algorithm for finding a discrete solution of the following Volterra integro-differential equation \[ y^{(2)}(x)= f\Biggl(x, y(x),\;\int^x_0 K(x,t,y(t))dt\Biggr),\quad 0\leq x\leq a,\;y(0)= b_0,\;y(a)= b_1. \] The new approach of the authors is that they develop a special fast algorithm for solving tridiagonal systems which appear after using finite difference methods instead of the traditional LU method. This new approach is based on \((2,2)\)-band symmetric matrices introduced by \textit{M. M. Chawla} and \textit{C. P. Katti} [BIT 20, 511-514 (1980; Zbl 0477.65062)]. Numerical examples which demonstrate the advantages of the new method are presented.
