Abstract:We are concerned about a singular boundary value problem for a second order nonlinear ordinary differential equation. The differential operator of this equation is the radial part of the so-called N-dimensional p-Laplacian (where p > 1), which reduces to the classical Laplacian when p = 2. We introduce a finite difference method to obtain a numerical solution and, in order to improve the accuracy of this method, we use a smoothing variable substitution that takes into account the behavior of the solution in th… Show more
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.
