\(A\)-stable spline-collocation methods of multivalue type (Q1122952)

To approximate solutions of first order initial value problems, \textit{H. N. Mülthei} [Numer. Math. 39, 449-463 (1982; Zbl 0528.65040)] has studied a general class V of spline-collocation methods. This class V contains as a subclass the methods of the so-called multivalue type, in particular the generalized singly-implicit Runge-Kutta methods, treated by \textit{J. C. Butcher} [BIT 21, 175-189 (1981; Zbl 0484.65048)]. For this subclass, there exist only few results regarding \(A\)-stability. In this paper the author constructs one-parameter families of \(A\)-stable multivalue type methods. Examples are given.
