320 Difference Schemes with Constant Coefficients
Substitution of ( 49) into ( 48) gives
Summing over/= 0, 1, ... ,j and keeping y^0 = 0, we deduce that
In agreement with Lemma 1 in Chapter 2, Section 3, we might have
thereby justifying that

Applying this estimate to problem (III) we get
thus demonstrating that scheme (III) converges uniformly, so that

A case in point is that for the explicit schen1e with (} = 0 the uniform
convergence does not follow from ( 46) under the constraint T < ~ h^2. But
the a priori estimate emerged in Section 5.7, namely
provides support for the view that

vVhence it follows imn1ediately that the explicit scheme converges uniformly
with the rate O(r + h^2 ).
