A Parameter Uniform Numerical Scheme for Singularly Perturbed Differential-difference Equations with Mixed Shifts

In this paper, we consider a second-order singularly perturbed differential-difference equations with mixed delay and advance parameters. At first, we approximate the model problem by an upwind finite difference scheme on a Shishkin mesh. We know that the upwind scheme is stable and its solution is oscillation free, but it gives lower order of accuracy. So, to increase the convergence, we propose a hybrid finite difference scheme, in which we use the cubic spline difference method in the fine mesh regions and a midpoint upwind scheme in the coarse mesh regions. We establish a theoretical parameter uniform bound in the discrete maximum norm. To check the efficiency of the proposed methods, we consider test problems with delay, advance and the mixed parameters and the results are in agreement with our theoretical findings.
