Method Of The Quasilinearization For Nonlinear Impulsive Differential Equations With Linear Boundary Conditions, Paul W. Eloe, S. G. Hristova Jan 2002

Method Of The Quasilinearization For Nonlinear Impulsive Differential Equations With Linear Boundary Conditions, Paul W. Eloe, S. G. Hristova

Mathematics Faculty Publications

The method of quasilinearization for nonlinear impulsive differential equations with linear boundary conditions is studied. The boundary conditions include periodic boundary conditions. It is proved that the convergence is quadratic.

The Method Of Quasilinearization And A Three-Point Boundary Value Problem, Paul W. Eloe, Yang Gao

The method of quasilinearization generates a monotone iteration scheme whose iterates converge quadratically to a unique solution of the problem at hand. In this paper, we apply the method to two families of three-point boundary value problems for second order ordinary differential equations: Linear boundary conditions and nonlinear boundary conditions are addressed independently. For linear boundary conditions, an appropriate Green's function is constructed. For nonlinear boundary conditions, we show that these nonlinearities can be addressed similarly to the nonlinearities in the differential equation.

How To Keep Up With Mathematics (Abstract), Paul Campbell

Kenneth C. Schraut Memorial Lectures

You are a mathematics major perhaps because you are good at it and it’s useful, but more likely mainly because you enjoy it.

Most undergraduate mathematics is decades or even centuries old, in part because of the hierarchical nature of the subject. Meanwhile, your fellow students in biology and other sciences use textbooks that feature crucial work of the last five or ten years.

Recall, though, what you were told in orientation to college and often since: Much learning in college has to take place outside the classroom, at your own initiative. After your formal education ends, all mathematics learning …

Generalized Quasilinearization Method For A Second Order Three Point Boundary-Value Problem With Nonlinear Boundary Conditions, Bashir Ahmad, Rahmat Ali Khan, Paul W. Eloe

Mathematics Faculty Publications

The generalized quasilinearization technique is applied to obtain a monotone sequence of iterates converging uniformly and quadratically to a solution of three point boundary value problem for second order di_erential equations with nonlinear boundary conditions. Also, we improve the convergence of the sequence of iterates by establishing a convergence of order k.
