@vv Thanks, really. Can you briefly explain what you have done, since I have to run this for several differential equations? There is a parameter which I have to consider in my analysis, in the case posted above the value of that parameter was 2.

Dear all,

thank you for replies. The problem is from economics, auction theory. I'm 101% sure of the boundary conditions, but unfortunately I have made a very stupid mistake in writing down the ODE. I really cannot imagine how I did not get it before.

Here the correct version. I still get back the same error message. I will try to work out the idea of solving the problem in b=3/8 to guess a solution.


NULL

deq1 := 1/(b-f(b)) = (2*(3-(1-f(b))*(diff(f(b), b, b))/((diff(f(b), b))*(diff(f(b), b)))))/(1-2*(b-(1-f(b))/(diff(f(b), b))))

1/(b-f(b)) = 2*(3-(1-f(b))*(diff(diff(f(b), b), b))/(diff(f(b), b))^2)/(1-2*b+2*(1-f(b))/(diff(f(b), b)))

(1)

ic1 := eval(f(b), b = 3/8) = 0, eval(f(b), b = 1/2) = 1/2

f(3/8) = 0, f(1/2) = 1/2

(2)

``

3

(3)

dsol1 := dsolve({deq1, ic1}, method = bvp[middefer], numeric, range = 3/8 .. 1/2)

Error, (in dsolve/numeric/bvp) Newton iteration is not converging
