Computable error bounds with improved applicability conditions for collocation methods.
In the article containing the algorithm of explicit generalized Runge-Kutta formulas of arbitrary order with rational parameters two problems occuring in the solution of ordinary differential equaitions are investigated, namely the determination of rational coefficients and the derivation of the adaptive Runge-Kutta method. By introducing suitable substitutions into the nonlinear system of condition equations one obtains a system of linear equations, which has rational roots. The introduction of...
