Abstract

A problem of numerical differentiation of functions with large gradients in a boundary layer is investigated. The problem is that for functions with large gradients and a uniform grid the relative error of the classical difference formulas for derivatives may be considerable. It is proposed to use a Shishkin grid to obtain a relative error of the formulas that is independent of a small parameter. Error estimates that depend on the number of nodes of the difference formulas for a derivative of a given order are obtained. It is proved that the error estimate is uniform with respect to the small parameter. In the case of a uniform grid, a boundary layer region is indicated outside of which the numerical differentiation formulas have an error that is uniform with respect to the small parameter. The results of numerical experiments are presented.
