Abstract
We present families of fourth-order mono-implicit Runge-Kutta-Nyström methods. Each member of these families can be considered as a modification of the Numerov method. Some parameters of these new methods are used to optimize the linear stability properties, i.e. to obtain P-stable methods with a minimal phase-lag. Also we show that in some cases there exist P-stable methods with stage-order 3. Since the methods considered are mono-implicit, the computational work needed in each time-step to solve the implicit equations is reduced seriously.
