In this study, by means of the matrix relations between the Laguerre polynomials, and their derivatives, a novel matrix method based on collocation points is modified and developed for solving a class of second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations having quadratic and cubic terms, via mixed conditions. The method reduces the solution of the nonlinear equation to the solution of a matrix equation corresponding to system of nonlinear algebraic equations with the unknown Laguerre coefficients. Also, some illustrative examples along with an error analysis based on residual function are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the proposed method.

AbstractNew oscillation criteria are given for second order nonlinear ordinary differential equations with alternating coefficients. The results involve a condition obtained by Kamenev for linear differential equations. The obtained criterion for superlinear differential equations is a complement of the work established by Kwong and Wong, and Philos, for sublinear differential equations and by Yan for linear differential equations.

We propose He’s homotopy perturbation method (HPM) to solve stiff systems of ordinary differential equations. This method is very simple to be implemented. HPM is employed to compute an approximation or analytical solution of the stiff systems of linear and nonlinear ordinary differential equations.
