Exact three-point difference scheme for a nonlinear boundary-value problem on the semiaxis

For the numerical solution of boundary-value problems on the semiaxis for second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations, an exact three-point difference scheme is constructed and substantiated. Under the conditions of existence and uniqueness of solution of a boundary-value problem, we prove the existence and uniqueness of solution of the exact three-point difference scheme and convergence of the method of successive approximations for its solution.
