In recent years, some promising approximate analytical solutions are proposed, such as exp-function method [1], homotopy perturbation method [2 – 11], and variational iteration method (VIM) [12 – 17]. The variational iteration method is the most effective and convenient one for both weakly and strongly nonlinear equations. This method has been shown to effectively, easily, and accurately solve ...

In this note, convex Homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is presented for the approximate solution of the linear Fredholm-Volterra integral and integro-differential equation. Convergence and rate of convergence of the HPM are proved for both equations. Five numerical examples are provided to verify the validity and accuracy of the proposed method. Example reveals that HPM is very accurate and si...

This paper successfully applies the Adomian decomposition  and the modified Laplace Adomian decomposition methods to find  the approximate solution of a nonlinear fractional Volterra-Fredholm integro-differential equation. The reliability of the methods and reduction in the size of the computational work give these methods a wider applicability. Also, the behavior of the solution can be formall...

We study two equations of Lotka-Volterra type that describe the Darwinian evolution of a population density. In the first model a Laplace term represents the mutations. In the second one we model the mutations by an integral kernel. In both cases, we use a nonlinear birth-death term that corresponds to the competition between the traits leading to selection. In the limit of rare or small mutati...

This paper presents a comparison between variational iteration method (VIM) and modfied variational iteration method (MVIM) for approximate solution a system of Volterra integral equation of the first kind. We convert a system of Volterra integral equations to a system of Volterra integro-di®erential equations that use VIM and MVIM to approximate solution of this system and hence obtain an appr...

problem (OCP) for systems governed by Volterra integro-differential (VID) equation is considered. The method is developed by means of the Legendre wavelet approximation and collocation method. The properties of Legendre wavelet together with Gaussian integration method are utilized to reduce the problem to the solution of nonlinear programming one. Some numerical examples are given to confirm t...

We study S-asymptotically ω-periodic mild solutions of the semilinear Volterra equation u′(t) = (a ∗ Au)(t) + f(t, u(t)), considered in a Banach space X, where A is the generator of an (exponentially) stable resolvent family. In particular, we extend recent results for semilinear fractional integro-differential equations considered in [4] and for semilinear Cauchy problems of first order given ...
