چکیده

In this first part of our two-part article, we present some theoretical background along with descriptions of some numerical techniques for solving a particular semilinear elliptic eigenproblem of Lane-Emden type on a triangular domain without any lines of symmetry. For solving the principal (1st) eigenproblem, we describe an operator splitting method applied to the corresponding time-dependent problem. For solving higher eigenproblems, we describe an arclength continuation method applied to a particular perturbation of the original problem, which admits solution branches bifurcating from the trivial solution branch at eigenvalues of its linearization. We then solve the original eigenproblem by “jumping” to a point on the unperturbed solution branch from a ”nearby” point on the corresponding continued perturbed branch, then normalizing the result. Finally, for comparison, we describe a particular implementation of Newton’s method applied directly to the original constrained nonlinear eigenproblem.

In this paper, the ultraspherical operational matrices of derivatives are constructed. Based on these operational matrices, two numerical algorithms are presented and analyzed for obtaining new approximate spectral solutions of a class of linear and nonlinear Lane-Emden type singular initial value problems. The basic idea behind the suggested algorithms is basically built on transforming the eq...

In this paper, we use a numerical method involving collocation method with third B-splines as basis functions for solving a class of singular initial value problems (IVPs) of Lane--Emden type equation. The original differential equation is modified at the point of singularity. The modified problem is then treated by using B-spline approximation. In the case of non-linear problems, we first line...
