Abstract
A brief survey of the properties and different treatments of the one-dimensional (1D) and (2D) Bratu problems is presented. Different iterative treatments of the resulting nonlinear system of equations are discussed. The finite-difference treatment of the problem is considered. Nonstandard finite-difference methods with a simple sinusoidal starting function having an appropriate amplitude are recommended. Bounds on the amplitude for yielding both lower and upper solutions are given.
