Abstract

The oldest concept of unconditional stability of numerical integration methods for ordinary differential systems is that ofA-stability. This concept is related to linear systems having constant coefficients and has been introduced by Dahlquist in 1963. More recently, since another contribution of Dahlquist in 1975, there has been much interest in unconditional stability properties of numerical integration methods when applied to non-linear dissipative systems (G-stability,BN-stability,A-contractivity). Various classes of implicit Runge-Kutta methods have already been shown to beBN-stable. However, contrary to the property ofA-stability, when implementing such a method for practical use this unconditional stability property may be lost. The present note clarifies this for a class of diagonally implicit methods and shows at the same time that Rosenbrock's method is notBN-stable.
