Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Solving nonlinear equations and systems is a non-trivial task that involves many areas of science and technology. Usually it is not affordable in a direct way and iterative algorithms play a fundamental role in solving nonlinear equations and systems. This is an area of research that has experienced exponential growth in the last years.

The main theme of this Special Issue is the design, analysis of convergence and stability and application to practical problems of new iterative schemes for solving nonlinear problems. This includes methods with and without memory, with derivatives or derivative-free, and the real or complex dynamics associated with them and an analysis of their convergence that can be local, semilocal or global. High quality submissions on related topics are also welcome.

In this article, two new modified variational iteration algorithms are investigated for the numerical solution of coupled Burgers’ equations. These modifications are made with the help of auxiliary parameters to speed up the convergence rate of the series solutions. Three numerical test problems are given to judge the behavior of the modified algorithms, and error norms are used to evaluate the accuracy of the method. Numerical simulations are carried out for different values of parameters. The results are also compared with the existing methods in the literature. Full article

This study considers the mathematical analysis framework aimed at the adequate description of the modes of lasers on the threshold of non-attenuated in time light emission. The lasers are viewed as open dielectric resonators equipped with active regions, filled in with gain material. We introduce a generalized complex-frequency eigenvalue problem for such cavities and prove important properties of the spectrum of its eigensolutions. This involves reduction of the problem to the set of the Muller boundary integral equations and their discretization with the Nystrom technique. Embedded into this general framework is the application-oriented lasing eigenvalue problem, where the real emission frequencies and the threshold gain values together form two-component eigenvalues. As an example of on-threshold mode study, we present numerical results related to the two-dimensional laser shaped as an active equilateral triangle with a round piercing hole. It is demonstrated that the threshold of lasing and the directivity of light emission, for each mode, can be efficiently manipulated with the aid of the size and, especially, the placement of the piercing hole, while the frequency of emission remains largely intact.

In this paper, a simple family of one-point iterative schemes for approximating the solutions of nonlinear equations, by using the procedure of weight functions, is derived. The convergence analysis is presented, showing the sufficient conditions for the weight function. Many known schemes are members of this family for particular choices of the weight function. The dynamical behavior of one of these choices is presented, analyzing the stability of the fixed points and the critical points of the rational function obtained when the iterative expression is applied on low degree polynomials. Several numerical tests are given to compare different elements of the proposed family on non-polynomial problems. Full article

In this manuscript, we design two classes of parametric iterative schemes to solve nonlinear problems that do not need to evaluate Jacobian matrices and need to solve three linear systems per iteration with the same divided difference operator as the coefficient matrix. The stability performance of the classes is analyzed on a quadratic polynomial system, and it is shown that for many values of the parameter, only convergence to the roots of the problem exists. Finally, we check the performance of these methods on some test problems to confirm the theoretical results. Full article

This manuscript presents a new two-step weighted Newton’s algorithm with convergence order five for approximating solutions of system of nonlinear equations. This algorithm needs evaluation of two vector functions and two Frechet derivatives per iteration. Furthermore, it is improved into a general multi-step algorithm with one more vector function evaluation per step, with convergence order 3 k + 5 , k ≥ 1 . Error analysis providing order of convergence of the algorithms and their computational efficiency are discussed based on the computational cost. Numerical implementation through some test problems are included, and comparison with well-known equivalent algorithms are presented. To verify the applicability of the proposed algorithms, we have implemented them on 1-D and 2-D Bratu problems. The presented algorithms perform better than many existing algorithms and are equivalent to a few available algorithms. Full article

In this paper, based on Kou’s classical iterative methods with fifth-order of convergence, we propose new interval iterative methods for computing a real root of the nonlinear scalar equations. Some numerical experiments have executed with the program INTLAB in order to confirm the theoretical results. The computational results have described and compared with Newton’s interval method, Ostrowski’s interval method and Ostrowski’s modified interval method. We conclude that the proposed interval schemes are effective and they are comparable to the classical interval methods. Full article
