Boundary Value Problems for Second-Order Finite Difference Equations and Systems

This is an indispensable reference for those mathematicians that conduct research activity in applications of fixed-point theory to boundary value problems for nonlinear difference equations. Coverage includes second-order finite difference equations and systems of second-order finite difference equations subject to diverse multi-point boundary conditions, and various methods to study the existence of positive solutions for these problems.

Finite Difference Schemes and Partial Differential Equations

Finite Difference Methods for Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations

This book introduces finite difference methods for both ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations (PDEs) and discusses the similarities and differences between algorithm design and stability analysis for different types of equations. A unified view of stability theory for ODEs and PDEs is presented, and the interplay between ODE and PDE analysis is stressed. The text emphasizes standard classical methods, but several newer approaches also are introduced and are described in the context of simple motivating examples.
