Show Abstract
(a) Under the restriction $R_2 = 0$, the sixteen equations in twenty-one unknowns which specify a fifth-order Runge-Kutta formula are so arranged as to give a solution which is completely rational in terms of five parameters. (b) If $R_2 \ne 0$, the solutions fall into two classes. The simpler class permits a solution involving a single quadratic irrationality. The other class is reduced to the simultaneous solution of two determinantal equations each involving two unknowns and five parameters.

Numerical Inversion of the Laplace Transform by Use of Jacobi Polynomials

Show Abstract
Functional values of a function $f$ are determined from the values $F(s)$ of its Laplace transform at discrete points of $s$. Evaluation of $F(s)$ at points given by $s = (\beta + 1 + k)\delta ,\, k = 0,1, \cdots $, determine coefficients in an infinite series expansion of $f(t)$ in terms of Jacobi polynomials. The values of $\beta $ and $\delta $ determine the position along the real $s$-axis at which $F(s)$ is evaluated. An approximation to $f(t)$ is given by using a finite number of terms of the infinite series expansion of $f(t)$. Numerical examples are given and results are compared with some known numerical methods for approximating $f(t)$.

Show Abstract
This paper presents an iterative method for numerical solution of a system of $n$ nonlinear functional equations in $n$ unknowns, by repeated linear interpolation. It is a variation of Newton’s method, in which the partial derivatives are replaced by the multidimensional analogues of difference quotients. The only computations required are evaluation of the given functions and simple matrix operations. The method is a generalization of an idea of C. F. Gauss [6], and can also be regarded as generalizing the secant method, or regula falsi, as used for solving functions of one variable [4]. It produces superlinear convergence (of order $\frac{1}{2}(1 + \sqrt 5 )$, or approximately 1.62) to a simple zero, provided the given functions are twice continuously differentiable in a neighborhood of the zero, and the initial approximations are close enough. A convergence analysis for this method is given, and some numerical results are presented.
