Optimal error estimate of accurate second-order scheme for Volterra integrodifferential equations with tempered multi-term kernels (2209.00229v2)

Abstract: In this paper, we investigate and analyze numerical solutions for the Volterra integrodifferential equations with tempered multi-term kernels. Firstly we derive some regularity estimates of the exact solution. Then a temporal-discrete scheme is established by employing Crank-Nicolson technique and product integration (PI) rule for discretizations of the time derivative and tempered-type fractional integral terms, respectively, from which, nonuniform meshes are applied to overcome the singular behavior of the exact solution at $t=0$. Based on deduced regularity conditions, we prove that the proposed scheme is unconditionally stable, and possesses accurately temporal second-order convergence in $L_2$-norm. Numerical examples confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.
