The Steepest descent method and the Conjugate gradient method to minimize nonlinear functions have been studied in this work. Algorithms are presented and implemented in Matlab software for both methods. However, a comparison has been made between the Steepest descent method and the Conjugate gradient method. The obtained results in Matlab software has time and efficiency aspects. It is shown that the Conjugate gradient method needs fewer iterations and has more efficiency than the Steepest descent method. On the other hand, the Steepest descent method converges a function in less time than the Conjugate gradient method.

The variable telegraph partial differential equation depend on initial boundary value problem has been studied. The coefficient constant time-space telegraph partial differential equation is obtained from the variable telegraph partial differential equation throughout using Cauchy-Euler formula. The first and second order difference schemes were constructed for both of coefficient constant time-space and variable time-space telegraph partial differential equation. Matrix stability method is used to prove stability of difference schemes for the variable and coefficient telegraph partial differential equation. The variable telegraph partial differential equation and the constant coefficient time-space telegraph partial differential equation are compared with the exact solution. Finally, approximation solution has been found for both equations. The error analysis table presents the obtained numerical results.

This study presents numerical solutions for initial boundary value problems of homogeneous and nonhomogeneous Helmholtz equations using first- and second-order difference schemes. The stability of these methods is rigorously analyzed, ensuring their reliability and convergence for a wide range of problem instances.
