Implicit Alternating Direction Methods [PDF]
Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1959 in general plane regions and with respect to linear boundary conditions, is a classical problem of numerical analysis. Many such boundary value problems have been solved successfully on high-speed computing machines, using the (iterative) Young-Frankel "successive overrelaxation" (SOR) method as defined in [1 ] and [2], and variants thereof ("line" and
