The (m 1) (m 1) tridiagonal matrix A = 1 + 2 0 0 1 + 2 0 0 0 0 1 + 2 is involved in the Backward Difference method to solve the heat equation. (See Section 12.2.) For the stability of the method we need (A1) < 1. With m = 11, approximate (A1) for each of the following. a. = 1 4 b. = 1 2 c. = 3 4 When is the method stable?
