In this thesis, we demonstrate the capability of power series, combined with numerical methods, to solve boundary value problems and Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problems of ordinary differential equations. This kind of schemes is usually called the numerical-symbolic, numerical-analytic or semi-analytic method. In the first chapter, we develop an adaptive algorithm, which automatically decides the terms of power series to reach desired accuracy. The expansion point of power series can be chosen freely. It is also possible to combine several power series piecewisely. We test it on several models, including the second and higher order linear or nonlinear differential equations. For nonlinear problems, the same procedure works similarly to linear problems. The only differences are the nonlinear recurrence of the coefficients and a nonlinear equation, instead of linear, to be solved. In the second chapter, we use our semi-analytic method to solve singularly perturbed problems. These problems arise frequently in fluid mechanics and other branches of applied mathematics. Due to the existence of boundary or interior layers, its solution is very steep at certain point. So the terms of series need to be large in order to reach the desired accuracy. To improve its efficiency, we have a strategy to select only a few required basis from the whole polynomial family. Our method is shown to be a parameter diminishing method. A specific type of boundary value problem, called the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem, is very important in science and engineering. They can also be solved by our semi-analytic method. This is our focus in the third chapter. Our adaptive method works very well to compute its eigenvalues and eigenfunctions with desired accuracy. The numerical results are very satisfactory.

For the solution of system of differential equations with partial derivatives the method of generalized power series was applied. Analytical solutions of this system were found and properties of solutions on neighbourhood of points of degeneration manifold were investigated. The method of generalized power series can be applied to the solution of systems of differential equations with partial derivatives of similar structure, which order is degenerating. The results, which were obtained in this work, can be applied to modelling and studying the real processes.

For a power series which converges in some neighborhood of the origin in the complex plane, the zeros of its partial sums often behave in a controlled manner. We give an overview of some of the major results in the study of this phenomenon in the past century, focusing on recent developments which build on the theme of asymptotic analysis. Inspired by this work, we study the asymptotic behavior of the zeros of partial sums of power series for entire functions defined by exponential integrals of a certain type. Most of the zeros of the n'th partial sum travel outwards from the origin at a rate comparable to n, so we rescale the variable by n and explicitly calculate the limit curves of these normalized zeros. We discover that the zeros' asymptotic behavior depends on the order of the critical points of the integrand in the aforementioned exponential integral. / 62+x pages, 24 figures

Formal solutions of a system were formed. The structure of solutions is as follows: variable, by which the system degenerates, degree is multiplied by the exponent, which subscript is the variable’s polynome with variable’s negative degrees, and this multiplication is multiplied by power series with positive variable degrees.

We also see that multirectangular n-equivalent characteristics is linear toplogical invariant for power l-K&ouml / the spaces of first type.

The aim of this research is to develop a method for expanding the Jost functions as a Taylor-type power series on the complex angular momentum plane. From this method in conjunction with the Watson transformation, we were able to express the scattering amplitude as a sum of the background and pole terms, furthermore, this method propose a way of evaluating, numerically, the pole term. To demonstrate how this method may be applied, we considered the Born approximation. We found out that the developed method improved the Born approximation at large scattering angles. Therefore, this method is useful when the di fferential cross section of the background term fails to converge to that of the exact diff erential cross section at large scattering angles. / Dissertation (MSc)--University of Pretoria, 2016. / National Research Foundation (NRF) / Physics / MSc

>Magister Scientiae - MSc / We present the Black-Scholes Merton partial differential equation (BSMPDE) and its analytical solution. We present the Black-Scholes option pricing model and list some limitations of this model. We also present a nonlinear model (the Frey-Patie model) that may improve on one of these limitations. We apply various numerical methods on the BSMPDE and run simulations to compare which method performs best in approximating the value of a European put option based on the maximum errors each method produces when we vary some parameters like the interest rate and the volatility. We re-apply the same finite difference methods on the nonlinear model. / 2025
