The paper deals with a numerical method for solving nonlinear integro-parabolic prob- lems of Fredholm type. A monotone iterative method, based on the method of upper and lower solutions, is constructed. This iterative method yields two sequences which converge monotonically from above and below, respectively, to a solution of a nonlinear difference scheme. This monotone convergence leads to an existence-uniqueness theorem. An analy- sis of convergence rates of the monotone iterative method is given. Some basic techniques for construction of initial upper and lower solutions are given, and numerical experiments with two test problems are presented.

A FINITE DIFFERENCE SCHEME FOR SOLVING THE NONLINEAR POISSON-BOLTZMANN EQUATION MODELING CHARGED SPHERES

In this work, we propose an efficient numerical method for computing the electrostatic interaction between two like-charged spherical particles which is governed by the nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann equation. The nonlinear problem is solved by a monotone iterative method which leads to a sequence of linearized equations. A modified central finite difference scheme is developed to solve the linearized equations on an exterior irregular domain using a uniform Cartesian grid. With uniform grids, the method is simple, and as a consequence, multigrid solvers can be employed to speed up the convergence. Numerical experiments on cases with two isolated spheres and two spheres confined in a charged cylindrical pore are carried out using the proposed method. Our numerical schemes are found efficient and the numerical results are found in good agreement with the previous published results.

Solutions of Two-point BVP in Banach Spaces

The two point boundary value problem(BVP) with general boundary value conditions in Banach spaces is considered. Using the Green function of the two point BVP on R 1 and beginning at its upper solution v 0 and then at its lower solution u 0, monotone iterative sequences are constructed in ordered interval [u 0, v 0] and it is proved that the sequences converge to their maximal and minimal solutions, respectively. Moreover, it is shown that the sequence, as above, converges to the unique solution of the BVP for any initial value on the ordered interval [u 0, v 0]. Also, the error estimate of the solution's converging sequence is given.
