Two numerical methods one continuous and the other discrete are proposed for solving inverse singular value problems The rst method consists of solving an ordinary di erential equation obtained from an explicit calculation of the projected gradient of a certain objective function The second method generalizes an iterative process proposed originally by Friedland et al for solving inverse eigenv...

This paper is concerned with the numerical solution of a system of ordinary di erential equations ODEs y Sy t f t y p on an inter val b subject to boundary conditions g y y b p The ODEs have a coe cient that is singular at t but it is assumed that the boundary value problem BVP has a smooth solution Some popular methods for BVPs evaluate the ODEs at t This paper deals with the practical issues ...

We study the existence of solutions to a class of problems u + f(t, u) = 0, u(0) = u(1) = 0, where f(t, ·) is allowed to be singular at t = 0, t = 1.

We study singular discrete nth order boundary value problems with mixed boundary conditions. We prove the existence of a positive solution by means of the lower and upper solutions method and the Brouwer fixed point theorem in conjunction with perturbation methods to approximate regular problems. AMS subject classification: 39A10, 34B16.

We consider nonlinear boundary value problems with multiple solutions. A method is proposed for the computation of such solutions which depends crucially on known a priori qualitative information about the behavior of the solutions. The method is a two-stage method where the second stage is a shooting method and initial values of the shooting parameters are found in a first stage which approxim...

A classical problem in matrix computations is the efficient and reliable approximation of a given matrix by a matrix of lower rank. The truncated singular value decomposition (SVD) is known to provide the best such approximation for any given fixed rank. However, the SVD is also known to be very costly to compute. Among the different approaches in the literature for computing low-rank approxima...

In this Letter, we apply the homotopy-perturbation method (HPM) to obtain approximate analytical solutions of the time-dependent Emden– Fowler type equations. We also present a reliable new algorithm based on HPM to overcome the difficulty of the singular point at x = 0. The analysis is accompanied by some linear and nonlinear time-dependent singular initial value problems. The results prove th...

In this paper, modication of the optimal homotopy asymptotic method (MOHAM) is appliedupon singular initial value Lane-Emden type equations and results are compared with the available exactsolutions. The modied algorithm give the exact solution for dierential equations by using one iterationonly.
