The summarized approximation method 615
Proof Let z(a) = zj+a/p. As usual, we 111ay atternpt a solution z(oJ =
Y(a) - uj+a/p of proble1n (25) as a sum z(o) = v(a) + T/(a) with 1)(cr) still
subject to the conditions

From here we deduce for j = 0, 1, ... , j 0 that

since T/o = 0. vVith regard to 17( a) it is plain to show that

The function v(c>) is yet to be recovered from the conditions

A solution of problem (39) can readily be evaluated on account of
