NORDSIECK FORMS OF STIFFLY-STABLE ADAMS-TYPE CYCLIC METHODS THAT ARE INSENSITIVE TO STEP-SIZE CHANGES

Abstract

In this paper we determine a matrix S and a vector l for stiffly-stable Adams-type cyclic methods that are insensitive to step size changes by using the definition of equivalent methods, (see, e.g. [l]), in the Nordsieck notation. The elements S and l, written in a parametric form, permit us to represent in Nordsieck form the methods that were constructed in [7] and the new methods that satisfy the above properties.
