Implicit-Explicit Integral Deferred Correction Methods for Stiff Problems

The main goal of this paper is to investigate the order reduction phenomenon that appears in the integral deferred correction (InDC) methods based on implicit-explicit (IMEX) Runge--Kutta (R-K) schemes when applied to a class of stiff problems characterized by a small positive parameter $\varepsilon$, called singular perturbation problems (SPPs). In particular, an error analysis is presented for these InDC-IMEX methods when applied to SPPs. In our error estimate, we expand the global error in powers of $\varepsilon$ and show that its coefficients are global errors of the corresponding method applied to a sequence of differential algebraic systems. A study of these errors in the expansion yields error bounds and it reveals the phenomenon of order reduction. In our analysis we assume uniform quadrature nodes for the InDC method and the globally stiffly accurate property for the IMEX R-K scheme. Numerical results for the Van der Pol equation and PDE applications are presented to illustrate our theoretical fi...
