Abstract

We overview the current state of interval methods and software for computing bounds on solutions in initial value problems (IVPs) for ordinary differential equations (ODEs). We introduce the VNODE-LP solver for IVP ODEs, a suc- cessor of the author's VNODE package. VNODE-LP is implemented entirely using literate programming. A ma- jor goal of the VNODE-LP work is to produce an interval solver such that its correctness can be verified by a human expert, similar to how mathematical results are certified for correctness. We also discuss the state in computing bounds on solu- tions in differential algebraic equations.
