In this article, block BS methods are considered for the numerical solution of Volterra integro-differential equations (VIDEs). Convergence and stability properties are analyzed. A new Matlab code for the solution of VIDEs, called VIDEBS, is presented. Numerical results using a variable stepsize implementation show the effectiveness of the proposed code. 2014 Elsevier Inc.

The theory of a class of spectral methods is extended to Volterra integrodifferential equations which contain a weakly singular kernel (t − s)−μ with 0 < μ < 1. In this work, we consider the case when the underlying solutions of weakly singular Volterra integro-differential equations are sufficiently smooth. We provide a rigorous error analysis for the spectral methods, which shows that both th...

Homotopy perturbation method is a well-known method for solving many functional equations such as differential equations, integral equations, integro-differential equations and so on. Applying this method needs some computations which are boring by hand. Therefore, creating a program to do all computations would be useful. In this work, a maple program is prepared to solve the second kind of Vo...

In this paper, we formulate and analyze a new model for solving optimal control problems governed by Volterra integro-differential equations. The control and state variables are approximated by using monic Chebyshev series. The optimal control problem is reduced to a constrained optimization problem. Numerical examples are solved to show good ability and accuracy of the present approach.

In the recent paper [2], the authors obtained new proofs on the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the Volterra linear equation. Applying their results, in this paper we express the exact and approximate solution of the equation in the field of Mikusi´nski operators, F, which corresponds to an integro–differential equation.

The present paper deals with the numerical solution for a general form of system nonlinear Volterra delay integro-differential equations (VDIDEs). main purpose this work is to provide a...

In this paper stability inequalities for the linear nonhomogeneous Volterra delay integro-differential equation (VDIDE) is being established. The particular problems are encountered to show applicability of method and confirm predicted theoretical analysis.

We investigate an h-p version of the continuous Petrov-Galerkin method for the nonlinear Volterra functional integro-differential equations with vanishing delays. We derive h-p version a priori error estimates in the L-, Hand L-norms, which are completely explicit in the local discretization and regularity parameters. Numerical computations supporting the theoretical results are also presented.

A new class of numerical methods for Volterra integro-differential equations with memory is developed. The methods are based on the combination of general linear methods with compound quadrature rules. Sufficient conditions that guarantee global and asymptotic stability of the solution of the differential equation and its numerical approximation are established. Numerical examples illustrate th...
