Abstract
We propose a numerical method for solving nonlinear
initial-value problems of Lane-Emden type. The method is based upon
nonclassical Gauss-Radau collocation points, and weighted interpolation.
Nonclassical orthogonal polynomials, nonclassical Radau points
and weighted interpolation are introduced on arbitrary intervals. Then
they are utilized to reduce the computation of nonlinear initial-value
problems to a system of nonlinear algebraic equations. We also present
the comparison of this work with some well-known results and show
that the present solution is very accurate.
