Differential-algebraic equations and their numerical treatment. (English) Zbl 0629.65080

Teubner-Texte zur Mathematik, Bd. 88. Leipzig: BSB B. G. Teubner Verlagsgesellschaft. 220 p. M 22.50 (1986).
In the first part of this monograph the authors deal with theoretical results on differential-algebraic equations \(f(x'(t),x(t),t)=0\) where the nullspace of the Jacobian \(f_ y'(y,x,t)\) depends only on time and is of constant dimension. A transferability condition is used to characterize a well posed problem by transforming the problem to an equivalent system of state equations.
The second part deals with numerical methods for the initial value problem for differential-algebraic equations. A detailed analysis is given for implicit Runge-Kutta methods with a thorough treatment of stability properties. Corresponding results are obtained for multistep methods and for one leg methods. The final, comparatively brief, section deals with boundary value problems. Attention is restricted to the use of one step methods.
