Abstract

Sinc collocation method is proven to provide an exponential convergence rate in solving linear differential equations, even in the presence of singularities. But in order to treat the derivatives on boundaries, people often relied on the finite difference method, which would be expected to limit the accuracy. The present paper develops a Sinc collocation method with boundary treatment for two-point boundary value problems. Numerical results show that the method can directly and efficiently handle the boundary derivatives.
