Abstract
This paper presents a Lie-group shooting method for the numerical solutions of multi-dimensional nonlinear boundary-value problems, which may exhibit multiple solutions. The Lie-group shooting method is a powerful technique to search unknown initial conditions through a single parameter, which is determined by matching the multiple targets through a minimum of an appropriately defined measure of the mis-matching error to target equations. Several numerical examples are examined to show that the novel approach is highly efficient and accurate. The number of solutions can be identified in advance, and all possible solutions can be numerically integrated by using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. We also apply the Lie-group shooting method to a numerical solution of an optimal control problem of the Duffing oscillator. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
