Abstract
We use the concept of order stars (see [1]) to prove and generalize a recent result of Dahlquist [2] on unconditionally stable linear multistep methods for second order differential equations. Furthermore a result of Lambert-Watson [3] is generalized to the multistage case. Finally we present unconditionally stable Nystrom methods of order 2s (s=1,2, ...) and an unconditionally stable modification of Numerov's method. The starting point of this paper was a discussion with G. Wanner and S.P. NOrsett. The author is very grateful to them.
