Abstract

A numerical method for solution of boundary-value problems of mathematical physics is described that is based on the use of radial atomic basis functions. Atomic functions are compactly supported solutions of functional-differential equations of special form. The convergence of this numerical method is investigated for the case of using an atomic function in solving the Dirichlet boundary-value problem for the Laplace equation.
