Abstract
A computational technique based on the method of path integral is studied with a view to finding approximate solutions of a class of two-point boundary-value problems. These solutions are "rough" solutions by Monte Carlo sampling. From the computational point of view, however, once these rough solutions are obtained for any nonlinear cases, they serve as good starting approximations for improving the solutions to higher accuracy. Numerical results of a few examples are also shown.

Solution of Troesch's two-point boundary value problem by a combination of techniques

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss how Troesch's problem may be solved by a combination of methods, multipoint, continuation, and perturbation, although none of these methods by itself is sufficiently potent.
