The Method of Lower and Upper Solutions for Some Fourth-order Equations

Iterative scheme to a coupled system of highly nonlinear fractional order differential equations

In this article, we investigate sufficient conditions for existence of maximal and minimal solutions to a coupled system of highly nonlinear differential equations of fractional order with mixed type boundary conditions. To achieve this goal, we apply monotone iterative technique together with the method of upper and lower solutions. Also an error estimation is given to check the accuracy of th...

High Order Compact Finite Difference Schemes for Solving Bratu-Type Equations

In the present study, high order compact finite difference methods is used to solve one-dimensional Bratu-type equations numerically. The convergence analysis of the methods is discussed and it is shown that the theoretical order of the method is consistent with its numerical rate of convergence. The maximum absolute errors in the solution at grid points are calculated and it is shown that the ...

A new optimal method of fourth-order convergence for solving nonlinear equations

In this paper, we present a fourth order method for computing simple roots of nonlinear equations by using suitable Taylor and weight function approximation. The method is based on Weerakoon-Fernando method [S. Weerakoon, G.I. Fernando, A variant of Newton's method with third-order convergence, Appl. Math. Lett. 17 (2000) 87-93]. The method is optimal, as it needs three evaluations per iterate,...

Random differential inequalities and comparison principles for nonlinear hybrid random differential equations

 In this paper, some basic results concerning strict, nonstrict inequalities, local existence theorem and differential inequalities  have been proved for an IVP of first order hybrid  random differential equations with the linear perturbation of second type. A comparison theorem is proved and  applied to prove the uniqueness of random solution for the considered perturbed random differential eq...
