We propose a new algorithm for solving the terminal value problems on a q-difference equations. Through some transformations, the terminal value problems which contain the first- and second-order delta-derivatives have been changed into the corresponding initial value problems; then with the help of the methods developed by Liu and H. Jafari, the numerical solution has been obtained and the error estimate has also been considered for the terminal value problems. Some examples are given to illustrate the accuracy of the numerical methods we proposed. By comparing the exact solution with the numerical solution, we find that the convergence speed of this numerical method is very fast.

We propose a numerical method for solving nonlinear initial-value problems of Lane-Emden type. The method is based upon nonclassical Gauss-Radau collocation points, and weighted interpolation. Nonclassical orthogonal polynomials, nonclassical Radau points and weighted interpolation are introduced on arbitrary intervals. Then they are utilized to reduce the computation of nonlinear initial-value problems to a system of nonlinear algebraic equations. We also present the comparison of this work with some well-known results and show that the present solution is very accurate.

A numerical method to solve Lane-Emden equations as singular initial value problems is presented in this work. This method is based on the replacement of unknown functions through a truncated series of hybrid of block-pulse functions and Chebyshev polynomials. The collocation method transforms the differential equation into a system of algebraic equations. It also has application in a wide area of differential equations. Corresponding numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed method.

In this paper, an accurate numerical method is presented to find the numerical solution of the singular initial value problems. The second-order singular initial value problem under consideration is transferred into a first-order system of initial value problems, and then it can be solved by using the fifth-order Runge Kutta method. The stability and convergence analysis is studied. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is confirmed by solving three model examples, and the obtained approximate solutions are compared with the existing methods in the literature. Thus, the fifth-order Runge-Kutta method is an accurate numerical method for solving the singular initial value problems.
