Abstract

We propose a method of numerical integration of differential equations of the type x2y″+f(x)y=0x2y″+f(x)y=0 by approximating its solution with solutions of equations of the type x2y″+(ax2+bx+c)y=0x2y″+(ax2+bx+c)y=0. This approximation is performed by segmentary approximation on an interval. We apply the method to obtain approximate solutions of the radial Schrödinger equation on a given interval and test it for two different potentials. We conclude that our method gives a similar accuracy than the Taylor method of higher order.
