Abstract

In this paper, variable stepsize multistep methods for higher-order delay differential equations of the type y^(^r^)(t) = f(t, y(t), y(t-@t)) are proposed. Explicit error bounds for the global discretization error are given. It is proved that a variable multistep method which is a perturbation of strongly stable fixed stepsize method is convergent.
