Spline Approximations for Linear Nonautonomous Delay Systems.

Abstract

A semi-discrete approximation framework for linear nonautonomous nonhomogeneous functional differential equations of retarded type was developed. The approximation schemes were constructed and convergence results were obtained through the approximation of an associated abstract evolution operator. Computer implementation of the schemes is outlined and a spline based method included in the framework is constructed. Extensions of the semi-discrete methods to schemes incorporating full discretization and difference equation approximation are also discussed. Numerical results for several examples demonstrating the feasibility of the schemes are presented. (Author)
