To formulate a correct mixed boundary problem, boundary conditions that describe physical processes happening on the boundary are needed. However, sometimes there are no such special processes occurring. Initial conditions outside of the computational area are set approximately. Boundary conditions that provide the same solution for mixed boundary problem and the Cauchy’s problem for any initial condition usually are nonlocal. Such boundary conditions can be obtained by including integral operators of convolution type. A core of the convolution operator can be found for linear finite-difference equations too. A number of arithmetic operation required to calculate the convolution linearly depends on integration time. Technics based on Hermite – Pade approximations allow decreasing the number of arithmetic operations required to calculate one border point value. Such boundary conditions are found for finite-difference schemes that approximate some basic mathematical physics equations: wave, diffusion, Schrodinger equation. Theoretical base for small transverse vibrations of a rod equation is introduced

Student Theses at HSE must be completed in accordance with the University Rules and regulations specified by each educational programme.

Summaries of all theses must be published and made freely available on the HSE website.

The full text of a thesis can be published in open access on the HSE website only if the authoring student (copyright holder) agrees, or, if the thesis was written by a team of students, if all the co-authors (copyright holders) agree. After a thesis is published on the HSE website, it obtains the status of an online publication.

Student theses are objects of copyright and their use is subject to limitations in accordance with the Russian Federation’s law on intellectual property.

In the event that a thesis is quoted or otherwise used, reference to the author’s name and the source of quotation is required.
