Special Issue on Splitting Methods for Differential Equations

The International Journal of Computer Mathematics will publish a special issue  on SPLITTING METHODS FOR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS.

Different splitting methods have played important roles in the numerical solution of differential equations. Since the pioneer work on ADI and exponential splitting formulae, many new concepts and strategies have been developed and utilized. The aim of this special issue is to highlight the new developments in the area.  It will contain articles presenting the latest trends and research results  in topics including, but not limited to:

splitting for higher efficiency and accuracy

splitting for non-linear differential equations
stability and convergence of splitting methods
iterative and adaptive splitting methods
splitting methods in parallel and quantum computations

Research papers are solicited for this special issue. Each submitted paper should be between 10 and 16 pages and will be refereed according to IJCM policies
