  2. Power series solution of differential equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_series_solution_of...

    The power series method will give solutions only to initial value problems (opposed to boundary value problems), this is not an issue when dealing with linear equations since the solution may turn up multiple linearly independent solutions which may be combined (by superposition) to solve boundary value problems as well. A further restriction ...

  3. Frobenius method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frobenius_method

    Some solutions of a differential equation having a regular singular point with indicial roots = and .. In mathematics, the method of Frobenius, named after Ferdinand Georg Frobenius, is a way to find an infinite series solution for a linear second-order ordinary differential equation of the form ″ + ′ + = with ′ and ″.

    Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations — the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) Euler method — the most basic method for solving an ODE; Explicit and implicit methods — implicit methods need to solve an equation at every step; Backward Euler method — implicit variant of the Euler method

  5. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_methods_for...

    Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations are methods used to find numerical approximations to the solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Their use is also known as "numerical integration", although this term can also refer to the computation of integrals. Many differential equations cannot be solved exactly.

  6. Explicit and implicit methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explicit_and_implicit_methods

    In the vast majority of cases, the equation to be solved when using an implicit scheme is much more complicated than a quadratic equation, and no analytical solution exists. Then one uses root-finding algorithms, such as Newton's method, to find the numerical solution. Crank-Nicolson method. With the Crank-Nicolson method

  7. Frobenius solution to the hypergeometric equation - Wikipedia

    In the following we solve the second-order differential equation called the hypergeometric differential equation using Frobenius method, named after Ferdinand Georg Frobenius. This is a method that uses the series solution for a differential equation, where we assume the solution takes the form of a series. This is usually the method we use for ...

  8. Spectral method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_method

    Spectral methods are a class of techniques used in applied mathematics and scientific computing to numerically solve certain differential equations. The idea is to write the solution of the differential equation as a sum of certain "basis functions" (for example, as a Fourier series which is a sum of sinusoids) and then to choose the ...
