The stable difference schemes for the approximate solution of the nonlocal boundary value problem for multidimensional hyperbolic equations with dependent in space variable coefficients are presented. Stability of these difference schemes and of the first- and second-order difference derivatives is obtained. The theoretical statements for the solution of these difference schemes for one-dimensional hyperbolic equations are supported by numerical examples.

AbstractIn many problems, one wishes to solve the Helmholtz equation with variable coefficients within the Laplacian-like term and use a high order accurate method (e.g., fourth order accurate) to alleviate the points-per-wavelength constraint by reducing the dispersion errors. The variation of coefficients in the equation may be due to an inhomogeneous medium and/or non-Cartesian coordinates. This renders existing fourth order finite difference methods inapplicable. We develop a new compact scheme that is provably fourth order accurate even for these problems. We present numerical results that corroborate the fourth order convergence rate for several model problems.
