The author considers a three‐point third order boundary value problem. Properties and the structure of solutions of the third order equation are discussed. Also, a connection between the number of solutions of the boundary value problem and the structure of solutions of the equation is established.


This paper is devoted to the construction of localapproximations of functions of one and two variables using thepolynomial, the trigonometric, and the exponential splines. Thesesplines are useful for visualizing flows of graphic information.Here, we also discuss the parallelization of computations. Someattention is paid to obtaining two-sided estimates of theapproximations using interval analysis methods. Particularattention is paid to solving the boundary value problem by usingthe polynomial splines and the trigonometric splines of the thirdand fourth order approximation. Using the considered splines,formulas for a numerical differentiation are constructed. Theseformulas are used to construct computational schemes for solvinga parabolic problem. Questions of approximation and stability ofthe obtained schemes are considered. Numerical examples arepresented.
