Finite difference problem
Since this is apparently a homework problem, let's just illustrate the idea on a simple small example. Let's take the domain [0,1], with the discontinuity at $x=0.5$, and assume $\alpha$=1 to the left ...

Does anyone know how to add a forcing term at the center of a cicular membrane?
Once again, my mates and I have successfully deciphered how to tackle this. It's worth noting that when introducing the forcing term, altering 'i' impacts the radial position, while adjusting 'j' ...

enough conditions to check that a matrix doesn't have Cholesky factorization while factorizing it
You are trying to figure out what is known as Modified Cholesky. There are a lot of resources on it, but McSweeney's thesis is a good starting point "Modified Cholesky Decomposition and ...

Local truncation error of given implicit 1-step scheme
You insert the exact solution on both sides so that $y'(t_{n+1})=f(t_{n+1},y(t_{n+1}))$ and $y''(t_{n})=f'(t_{n},y(t_{n}))$. Thus
\begin{align}
O(h^{p+1})=g(h)&=-y(t+h)+y(t)+\frac{h}{6}[4y'(t)+2y'(...
