Abstract

In this paper, we propose and study a fully discretization for computing the positive and (possibly) blowing-up solution of the Cauchy problem: u"t-@?"x^2u^m=@au^p^"^1 in R, where m@?(0,1), p"11, @a0, with an initial condition u"0 assumed to be a nonnegative and continuous function with compact support. The convergence of the numerical method is proved.
