The reproducing kernel method for nonlinear fourth-order BVPs

Abstract

Based on the reproducing kernel theory, we solve the nonlinear fourth order boundary value problem in the reproducing kernel space $ W_{2}^{5}[0, 1] $. Its approximate solution is obtained by truncating the n-term of the exact solution and using the $ \varepsilon $-best approximate method. Meanwhile, the approximate solution $ u^{(i)}_{n}(x) $ converges uniformly to the exact solution $ u^{(i)}(x), (i, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) $. The validity and accuracy of this method are verified by some examples.
