摘要

In this paper,a hybrid method based on the collocation and Newton-Kantorovich methods is used for solving the nonlinear singular Thomas-Fermi equation.At first,by using the Newton-Kantorovich method,the nonlinear problem is converted to a sequence of linear differential equations,and then,the fractional order of rational Legendre functions are introduced and used for solving linear differential equations at each iteration based on the collocation method.Moreover,the boundary conditions of the problem by using Ritz method without domain truncation method are satisfied.In the end,the obtained results compare with other published in the literature to show the performance of the method,and the amounts of residual error are very small,which indicates the convergence of the method.
