On the convergence and application of Stirling's method

Ioannis K. Argyros (2003)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We provide new sufficient convergence conditions for the local and semilocal convergence of Stirling's method to a locally unique solution of a nonlinear operator equation in a Banach space setting. In contrast to earlier results we do not make use of the basic restrictive assumption in [8] that the norm of the Fréchet derivative of the operator involved is strictly bounded above by 1. The study concludes with a numerical example where our results compare favorably with earlier ones.

On the convergence of a linear two-step finite element method for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Georgios E. Zouraris (2001)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We discretize the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, with Dirichlet boundary conditions, by a linearly implicit two-step finite element method which conserves the L 2 norm. We prove optimal order a priori error estimates in the L 2 and H 1 norms, under mild mesh conditions for two and three space dimensions.
