Spectral approximations for ODEs in unbounded domains have only received limited attention. In many applicable problems, singular initial value problems arise. In solving these problems, most of numerical methods have difficulties and often could not pass the singular point successfully. In this paper, we apply the sinc-collocation method for solving singular initial value problems. The ability...

In this paper, a numerical scheme for solving singular initial/boundary value problems presented.By applying the reproducing kernel Hilbert space method (RKHSM) for solving these problems,this method obtained to approximated solution. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate theaccuracy of the present method. The result obtained by the method and the exact solution are foundto be in good agr...

In this paper, we study the second-order nonlinear singular Sturm-Liouville boundary value problems with Riemann-Stieltjes integral boundary conditions    −(p(t)u(t)) + q(t)u(t) = f(t, u(t)), 0 < t < 1, α1u(0)− β1u (0) = ∫ 1 0 u(τ)dα(τ), α2u(1) + β2u (1) = ∫ 1 0 u(τ)dβ(τ), where f(t, u) is allowed to be singular at t = 0, 1 and u = 0. Some new results for the existence of positive solu...
