We consider the Cauchy problem for a first-order evolution equation with memory in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space when the integral term is related to the time derivative of the solution. The main problems of the approximate solution of…
The Einstein equations have proven surprisingly difficult to solve numerically. A standard diagnostic of the problems which plague the field is the failure of computational schemes to satisfy the constraints, which are known to be…
