Abstract

Because of their potential for offering a computational speed-up when used on certain multiprocessor computers, implicit Runge-Kutta methods with a stability function having distinct poles are analyzed. These are calledmultiply implicit (MIRK) methods, and because of the so-calledorder reduction phenomenon, their poles are required to be real, i.e., only real MIRK's are considered. Specifically, it is proved that a necessary condition for aq-stage, real MIRK to beA-stable with maximal orderq+1 is thatq=1, 2, 3 or 5. Nevertheless, it is shown that for every positive integerq, there exists aq-stage, real MIRK which is stronglyA0-stable with orderq+1, and for every evenq, there is aq-stage, real MIRK which isI-stable with orderq. Finally, some useful examples of algebraically stable real MIRK's are given.
