Abstract

An ε-uniform second-order numerical method for singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion problems is proposed in this article. The difference scheme is based on cubic spline and classical finite difference scheme, which is applied on layer resolving Shishkin meshes. Uniform stability and uniform convergence of the scheme in the maximum norm are studied. A numerical example is presented to support the theoretical results.
