DE-sinc method for second order singularly perturbed boundary value problems

Abstract

In this paper the sinc-Galerkin method, as well as the sinc-collocation method, based on the double exponential transformation (DE transformation) for singularly perturbed boundary value problems of second order ordinary differential equation is considered. A large merit of the present method exists in that we can apply the standard sinc method with only a small care for perturbation parameter. Through several numerical experiments we confirmed higher efficiency of the present method than that of other methods, e.g., sinc method based on the single exponential (SE) transformation, as the number of sampling points increases.
