On periodic approximate solutions of ordinary differential equations
The issue of inheriting periodicity of an exact solution of a dynamic system by a difference scheme is considered. It is shown that some difference schemes (midpoint scheme, Kahan scheme) in some special cases provide approximate solutions of differential equations, which are periodic sequences. Such solutions are called periodic. A purely algebraic method for finding such solutions is developed. It is shown that midpoint scheme inherits periodicity not only in case of linear oscillator, but also in case of nonlinear oscillator, integrable into elliptic functions.
