Abstract. We consider a general family of two step nonlinear methods for the numerical integration of Ordinary Differential Equations of type y = f (x, y). By applying a collocation technique, linear systems with a Vandermonde-type matrix arise during the construction of the methods. The computation of its determinant reduces to the computation of a recurrence formula depending on the collocation abscissas.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
