Abstract

In this work we consider a system of singularly perturbed semilinear reaction-diffusion equations. To solve this problem numerically, we construct a finite difference scheme of Hermite type, and combine this with standard central difference scheme in a special way on a piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh. We prove that the method is third order uniformly convergent. Numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the efficiency of the present method.
