Abstract

In the article we present an interval difference scheme for solving a general elliptic boundary value problem with Dirichlet’ boundary conditions. The obtained interval enclosure of the solution contains all possible numerical errors. A numerical example we present confirms that the exact solution belongs to the resulting interval enclosure.

Notes

  1. 1.

    There is also known directed interval arithmetic in which the left-ends of intervals may be greater than the right-end of ones. But it is not the case of our paper – we use only proper intervals.
