Computation of radial solutions of semilinear equations

Abstract

We express radial solutions of semilinear elliptic equations on $R^n$ as convergent power series in $r$, and then use Pade approximants to compute both ground state solutions, and solutions to Dirichlet problem. Using a similar approach we have discovered existence of singular solutions for a class of subcritical problems. We prove convergence of the power series by modifying the classical method of majorants.
