The relation between local and global truncation errors is slightly different from in the simpler setting of one-step methods. For linear multistep methods, an additional concept called zero-stability is needed to explain the relation between local and global truncation errors.

A map is a local homeomorphism if and only if it is continuous, open, and locally injective. In particular, every local homeomorphism is a continuous and open map. A bijective local homeomorphism is therefore a homeomorphism. Whether or not a function : is a local homeomorphism depends on its codomain.
Lady Windermere's Fan (mathematics) — telescopic identity relating local and global truncation errors Stiff equation — roughly, an ODE for which unstable methods need a very short step size, but stable methods do not
In computer programming, thread-local storage (TLS) is a memory management method that uses static or global memory local to a thread. The concept allows storage of data that appears to be global in a system with separate threads. Many systems impose restrictions on the size of the thread-local memory block, in fact often rather tight limits.
Computing the square root of 2 (which is roughly 1.41421) is a well-posed problem. Many algorithms solve this problem by starting with an initial approximation x 0 to , for instance x 0 = 1.4, and then computing improved guesses x 1, x 2, etc. One such method is the famous Babylonian method, which is given by x k+1 = (x k + 2/x k)/2.
Examples of Galerkin methods are: the Galerkin method of weighted residuals, the most common method of calculating the global stiffness matrix in the finite element method, [3] [4] the boundary element method for solving integral equations, Krylov subspace methods. [5]
In numerical analysis, the Runge–Kutta methods (English: / ˈ r ʊ ŋ ə ˈ k ʊ t ɑː / ⓘ RUUNG-ə-KUUT-tah [1]) are a family of implicit and explicit iterative methods, which include the Euler method, used in temporal discretization for the approximate solutions of simultaneous nonlinear equations. [2]
