Abstract

In this work, we propose a hybrid difference scheme for solving parameterized singularly perturbed delay differential problems. A unified error analysis framework for the proposed hybrid scheme is given that allows to conclude uniform convergence of \(\mathcal {O}(N^{-2}\ln ^{2} N)\) on Shishkin meshes and \(\mathcal {O}(N^{-2})\) on Bakhvalov meshes, where N is the number of mesh intervals in the domain. Numerical results are included to confirm the theoretical estimates.
