A Reliable Treatment for Nonlinear Differential Equations

Abstract

In this paper, we use the concept of homotopy, Laplace transform, and He’s polynomials, to propose the auxiliary Laplace homotopy parameter method (ALHPM). We construct a homotopy equation consisting on two auxiliary parameters for solving nonlinear differential equations, which switch nonlinear terms with He’s polynomials. The existence of two auxiliary parameters in the homotopy equation allows us to guarantee the convergence of the obtained series. Compared with numerical techniques, the method solves nonlinear problems without any discretization and is capable to reduce computational work. We use the method for different types of singular Emden–Fowler equations. The solutions, constructed in the form of a convergent series, are in excellent agreement with the existing solutions.
