(k, l)-Algebraic Stability of Gauss Methods

It is well known that the s-stage Gauss Runge-Kutta methodsof order 2s are algebraically stable, or equivalently (1, 0)-algebraicallystable. In this paper, we show that there exists some l_s >0 such that the Gauss methods are (k, l) algebraically stablefor l 0, l_s) with k(l)=e^2l+O(l^p+1, where p=2s if s=1 or s=2,and p=2 if s>3.
