Piecewise orthogonal collocation for computing periodic solutions of renewal equations

Numerical Analysis 2023-12-08 v3 Numerical Analysis

Abstract

We extend the use of piecewise orthogonal collocation to computing periodic solutions of renewal equations, which are particularly important in modeling population dynamics. We prove convergence through a rigorous error analysis. Finally, we show some numerical experiments confirming the theoretical results, and a couple of applications in view of bifurcation analysis.
