A new approach to error estimation for general linear methods

  • Published:
Numerische Mathematik Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary.

We present a simple, accurate and reliable approach to the estimation of the local discretization error for general linear methods for ordinary differential equations. In this approach the input vector for the next step from x n to x n+1 =x n +h is rescaled and modified accordingly to compensate for the change of stepsize from ¯h to h=r¯h.
