In this work, a compact finite difference approach is constructed for singularly perturbed parabolic reaction diffusion problems with a retarded term. The time and space derivatives have been discretized using the θ-method and a compact fourth-order finite difference method on a Shishkin mesh, respectively. Parameter uniform error estimates have been calculated in the $ L_\infty $ L ∞ norm. Some numerical examples have been considered to corroborate the theoretical results and compare the numerical results with existing methods in the literature. It is shown that the present approach provides improved results till date for the problem considered in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
In the present paper, we mainly focus on an iterative erythropoiesis model with a nonlinear harvesting term involving a time-varying delay. Under certain conditions and by the Schauder fixed point theorem, we show that the existence of positive periodic solutions can be guaranteed and based on the Banach fixed point theorem, we establish the existence as well as the continuous dependence on parameters theorems of the unique solution. Moreover, two examples are provided to validate the correctness of our outcomes. Our theoretical findings extend and improve several related ones in the existing literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract.This paper chiefly takes into account the singularly perturbed delay Volterra-Fredholm integro-differential equations by numerically. In this context, firstly, priori estimates are given and a new discretization is constructed on piecewise-equidistant mesh by using interpolating quadrature rules [2] and composite integration formulas. Then, the convergence analysis and stability bounds of the presented method are discussed. Finally, numerical results are demonstrated with two test problems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
