A CLASS OF r-POINT (r+1)ST-ORDER A-STABLE ONE-BLOCK METHODS WITH DAMPING AT THE INFINITE POINT

摘要

This paper presents a class of r-point (r+1)st-order A-stable one-block methods with damping at the infinite point (DIAOB r,r+1 ). Under the conditions of the same order, A-stability, operation count (at each iterative step) and storage space are the same as the methods in , the methods in the paper improve the stability in a neighborhood at the infinite point. And, by using the OOPI method , it possesses much faster rate of convergence for solving systems of nonlinear equations produced by the DIAOB r,r+1 .
