Abstract

Problem Statement: Integro-differential equations find special applicability within scientific and mathematical disciplines. In this study, an analytical scheme for solving Integrodifferential equations was presented. Approach: We employed the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) to solve linear Fredholm integro-differential equations. Results: Error analysis and illustrative examples were included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the technique. MATLAB 7 was used to carry out the computations. Conclusion/Recommendations: From now we can use HAM as a novel solver for linear Integro-differential equations.

Summary

Introduction

There has been a growing interest in the Integro-Differential Equations (IDEs) which are a combination of differential and Fredholm-Volterra integral equations. By means of the homotopy analysis method (HAM), presented by Liao[5-7], a general analytic approach is presented to obtain series solutions of linear IDEs:. By means of the HAM, one constructs a continuous mapping of an initial guess approximation to the exact solution of considered equations. An auxiliary linear operator is chosen to construct such kind of continuous mapping and an auxiliary parameter is used to ensure the convergence of solution series. The method enjoys great freedom in choosing initial approximations and auxiliary linear operators. By means of this kind of freedom, a complicated nonlinear problem can be transferred into an infinite number of simpler, linear sub-problems
