In mathematics, a collocation method is a method for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations and integral equations.

In this chapter we introduce one-step methods derived using quadrature over polynomial in-terpolants, using collocation. We begin with a review of polynomial interpolation. Let Ps denote …

We now present a different type of numerical method that will yield the approximate solution of a boundary value problem in the form of a function, as opposed to the set of discrete points …

The mathematical foundations of collocation methods, encompassing the selection of interpolation functions, definition of weighting functions, and derivation of integration rules, are examined in …

ary-value problems has its origin in the 1930s. For initial-value problems in ordinary differential equations such collocation methods were first studied systematically in the late 1960s: it was …
