Abstract
In this paper we propose some implicit methods for stiff Volterra integral equations of second kind. The methods are constructed on the integro-differential equation obtained by differentiation of the Volterra equation. The numerical schemes are derived using a class of A-stable and L-stable methods for ordinary differential equations (proposed by Liniger and Willoughby in [3]) associated with the Gregory quadrature formula. Related to the test equation: {Mathematical expression} we give the definition of A-stability and ℒ-stability for the proposed numerical methods how natural extension of the A-stability and L-stability for the schemes for solving ordinary differential equations. We show how we have to choose the parameters of the methods in order to obtain A-stability and ℒ-stability schemes. Because of these properties the proposed schemes are particularly advantageous in the case of stiff Volterra integral equations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
