Abstract

In this paper, a finite difference scheme for a two-point boundary value problem of 2nth-order ordinary differential equations is presented. The convergence and uniqueness of the solution for the scheme are proved by means of theories on matrix eigenvalues and norm. Numerical examples show that our method is very simple and effective, and that this method can be used effectively for other types of boundary value problems.

Keywords
