in this paper, an analytical method called the parametric iteration method (pim) is presented for solving the second-order singular ivps of lane-emden type, and its local convergence is discussed. since it is often useful to have an approximate analytical solution to describe the lane-emden type equa- tions, especially for ones where the closed-form solutions do not exist at all, therefore, an ...

By means of Contractor Iteration Method, we solve and visualize the Lane-Emden(-Fowler) equation Δu+ u = 0, in Ω, u = 0, on ∂Ω. It is shown that the present method converges quadratically as Newton’s method and the computation of Contractor Iteration Method is cheaper than the Newton’s method. Keywords—Positive Solutions; Newton’s Method; Contractor Iteration Method; Eigenpairs.

In this paper we propose, a collocation method for solving nonlinear singular Lane-Emden equation which is a nonlinear ordinary differential equation on semi-infnite interval. This approach is based on a generalized Laguerre polynomial collocation method. This method reduces the solution of this problem to the solution of a system of algebraic equations.We also present the comparison of this wo...

In this paper we propose a Lagrangian method for solving Lane-Emden equation which is a nonlinear ordinary differential equation on semi-infinite interval. This approach is based on a Modified generalized Laguerre functions Lagrangian method. The method reduces the solution of this problem to the solution of a system of algebraic equations. We also present the comparison of this work with some ...

The stability question of the Lane-Emden stationary gaseous star configurations is an interesting problem arising in astrophysics. We establish both linear and nonlinear dynamical instability results for the Lane-Emden solutions in the framework of the Navier-Stokes-Poisson system with adiabatic exponent 6/5 < γ < 4/3.

We present a useful analytic approximation to the solution of the Lane-Emden equation for infinite polytropic index the isothermal sphere. The optimized expression obtained for the density profile can be accurate to within 0.04% within 5 core-radii and to 0.1% within 10 core-radii.

In this article, we tried to get the solution of a class Lane Emden type equations by using Fourier Decomposition Method. This method is obtained transform and Adomian (FADM) together.

In this paper, Singular initial value problems are investigated by using Taylor series method. The solutions are constructed in the form of a convergent series. The method is applied to Emden-Fowler and Lane-Emden equations.

We have derived exact solutions of the isothermal Lane–Emden equation with and without rotation in a cylindrical geometry. The corresponding hydrostatic equilibria are relevant to the dynamics of the solar nebula before and during the stages of planet and satellite formation. The nonrotating solution for the mass density is analytic, nonsingular, monotonically decreasing with radius, and it sat...

A coupled method of Laplace transform and Legendre wavelets is presented to obtain exact solutions of Lane-Emden-type equations. By employing properties of Laplace transform, a new operator is first introduced and then its Legendre wavelets operational matrix is derived to convert the Lane-Emden equations into a system of algebraic equations. Block pulse functions are used to calculate the Lege...
