In this paper, we present a new iterative method for solving nonlinear algebric equations by using modified homotopy perturbation method. We also discuss the convergence criteria of the present method. To assess its validity and accuracy, the method is applied to solve several test problems. 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

although homotopy-based methods, namely homotopy analysis method andhomotopy perturbation method, have largely been used to solve functionalequations, there are still serious questions on the convergence issue of thesemethods. some authors have tried to prove convergence of these methods, butthe researchers in this article indicate that some of those discussions are faulty.here, after criticizi...

A new algorithm is presented for solving Troesch’s problem. The numerical scheme based on the sinc-collocation technique is deduced. The equation is reduced to systems of nonlinear algebraic equations. Some numerical experiments are made. Compared with the modified homotopy perturbation technique (MHP), the variational iteration method and the Adomian decomposition method. It is shown that the ...

In this present paper, we solve a two-dimensional nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm integrodifferential equation by using the following powerful, efficient but simple methods: (i) Modified Adomian decomposition method (MADM), (ii) Variational iteration method (VIM), (iii) Homotopy analysis method (HAM) and (iv) Modified homotopy perturbation method (MHPM). The uniqueness of the solution and the conve...

A generalized Fisher’s equation is solved by using the modified Adomian decomposition method MADM , variational iteration method VIM , homotopy analysis method HAM , and modified homotopy perturbation method MHPM . The approximation solution of this equation is calculated in the form of series whose components are computed easily. The existence, uniqueness, and convergence of the proposed metho...

Based on the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and Padé approximants (PA), approximate and exact solutions are obtained for cubic Boussinesq and modified Boussinesq equations. The obtained solutions contain solitary waves, rational solutions. HPM is used for analytic treatment to those equations and PA for increasing the convergence region of the HPM analytical solution. The results reveal tha...

In this paper, we apply the  homotopy analysis method (HAM) for solving fuzzy  linear systems and present  the necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of series solution obtained via the HAM. Also, we present a new criterion for choosing a proper value of convergence-control parameter $hbar$ when the HAM is applied to linear system of equations. Comparisons are made between the ...
