In this paper we define higher-order Stieltjes derivatives, and using Schaefer's fixed point theorem we investigate the existence of solutions for a class of differential equations involving second-order Stieltjes derivatives with two-point boundary conditions. The equations include ordinary and impulsive differential equations, and difference equations.

In this paper, a generalized discretization scheme is proposed that can derive general-order finite difference equations representing the joint probability density function of dynamic response of stochastic systems. The various order of finite difference equations are applied to solutions of the Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov (FPK) equation. The finite difference equations derived by the proposed method can greatly increase accuracy even at the tail parts of the probability density function, giving accurate reliability estimations. Compared with exact solutions and finite element solutions, the generalized finite difference method showed increasing accuracy as the order increases. With the proposed method, it is allowed to use different orders and types (i.e. forward, central or backward) of discretization in the finite difference method to solve FPK and other partial differential equations in various engineering fields having requirements of accuracy or specific boundary conditions.

We study existence of polynomial integrating factors and solutions F(x, y)=c of first order nonlinear differential equations. We characterize the homogeneous case, and give algorithms for finding existence of and a basis for polynomial solutions of linear difference and differential equations and rational solutions or linear differential equations with polynomial coefficients. We relate singularities to nature of the solution. Solution of differential equations in closed form to some degree might be called more an art than a science: The investigator can try a number of methods and for a number of classes of equations these methods always work. In particular integrating factors are tricky to find. An analogous but simpler situation exists for integrating inclosed form, where for instance there exists a criterion for when an exponential integral can be found in closed form. In this paper we make a beginning in several directions on these problems, for 2 variable ordinary differential equations. The case of exact differentials reduces immediately to quadrature. The next step is perhaps that of a polynomial integrating factor, our main study. Here we are able to provide necessary conditions based on related homogeneous equations which probably suffice to decide existence in most cases. As part of our investigations we provide complete algorithms for existence of and finding a basis for polynomial solutions of linear differential and difference equations with polynomial coefficients, also rational solutions for such differential equations. Our goal would be a method for decidability of whether any differential equation Mdx+Mdy=0 with polynomial M, N has algebraic solutions(or an undecidability proof). We reduce the question of all solutions algebraic to singularities but have not yet found a definite procedure to find their type. We begin with general results on the set of all polynomial solutions and integrating factors. Consider a differential equation Mdx+Ndy where M, N are nonreal polynomials in x, y with no common factor. When does there exist an integrating factor u which is (i) polynomial (ii) rational? In case (i) the solution F(x, y)=c will be a polynomial. We assume all functions here are complex analytic polynomial in some open set.

In this paper we consider a class of singularly perturbed system of delay differential equations of convection diffusion type with integral boundary conditions. A finite difference scheme on an appropriate piecewise Shishkin type mesh is suggested to solve the problem. We prove that the method is of almost first order convergent. An error estimate is derived in the discrete maximum norm. Numerical experiments support our theoretical results.

In this paper, we study the non-existence of finite order entire solutions of nonlinear differential-difference of the form $$f^n+Q(z,f)=h$$, where $n{\geq}2$ is an integer, $Q(z,f)$ is a differential-difference polynomial in $f$ with polynomial coefficients, and $h$ is a meromorphic function of order ${\leq}1$.

A parameter uniform numerical scheme is proposed for solving singularly perturbed parabolic partial differential-difference convection-diffusion equations with a small delay and advance parameters in reaction terms and spatial variable. Taylor's series expansion is applied to approximate problems with the delay and advance terms. The resulting singularly perturbed parabolic convection-diffusion equation is solved by utilizing the implicit Euler method for the temporal discretization and finite difference method for the spatial discretization on a uniform mesh. The proposed numerical scheme is shown to be an ε-uniformly convergent accurate of the first order in time and second-order in space directions. The efficiency of the scheme is proved by some numerical experiments and by comparing the results with other results. It has been found that the proposed numerical scheme gives a more accurate approximate solution than some available numerical methods in the literature.

In this paper an asymptotic numerical method named as Initial Value Method (IVM) is suggested to solve the singularly perturbed weakly coupled system of reaction-diffusion type second order ordinary differential equations with negative shift (delay) terms. In this method, the original problem of solving the second order system of equations is reduced to solving eight first order singularly perturbed differential equations without delay and one system of difference equations. These singularly perturbed problems are solved by the second order hybrid finite difference scheme. An error estimate for this method is derived by using supremum norm and it is of almost second order. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the theoretical results.

In this paper, we will study the relationship between the controlling factor of the solution to a difference equation and the solution of the corresponding differential equation. Many times the controlling factors are the same. But even the controlling factor of the two solutions may be different, we will discover a way to compute, for first order non-linear equations, the controlling factor of the solution to the difference equation using the solution of the differential equation.

A class of systems of Caputo fractional differential equations with integral boundary conditions is considered. A numerical method based on a finite difference scheme on a uniform mesh is proposed. Supremum norm is used to derive an error estimate which is of order κ − 1, 1 < κ < 2. Numerical examples are given which validate our theoretical results.
