An effective method is proposed for interface problems by combining the domain decomposition method and the collocation method. The main idea is to split the whole domain into two non-overlapped sub-domains and enforce the interface conditions to obtain two sub-problems. Each sub-problem is solved by the collocation method. And a simple iterative algorithm is presented to achieve the jump conditions at the interface. The method provided can be used to solve interface problems with both linear and a special type of non-linear jump conditions. Numerical experiments reveal that our method is fourth-order accurate for interface problems.
