Summary: | The steady-state form of the Klein-Gordon equation is given by
(
∗
)
(^\ast )
\[
Δ
u
=
u
−
u

,
u
=
u
(
X
)
,
X
∈
R
3
.
\Delta u = u - {u^3},\quad u = u(X),\quad X \in {R^3}.
\]
For solutions which are spherically symmetric,
(
∗
)
(^\ast )
takes the form
u

/
r

−
u

\ddot u + 2\dot u/r = u - {u^3}
,
u
=
u
(
r
)
u = u(r)
, where
r
is the distance from the origin in
R
3
{R^3}
. The function
y
=
r
u
y = ru
satisfies
(

)
{(^\ast }^\ast )
\[
y
¨
=
y
−
y

/
r

.
\ddot y = y - {y^3}/{r^2}.
\]
It is known that
(

)
{(^\ast }^\ast )
has solutions
{

}
n
=

\{ {y_n}\} _{n = 0}^\infty
, where
y

{y_n}
has exactly
n
zeros in
(
0
,

)
(0,\infty )
, and where
y
(
0
)
=
y
(
∞
)
=
0
y(0) = y(\infty ) = 0
. In this paper, an approximation is obtained for the solution
y
0
{y_0}
by minimizing a certain functional over a class of functions of the form
\[
∑
k
=
−

]
.
\sum \limits _{k = - m}^m {{a_k}\;} {\operatorname {sinc}}\left [ {\frac {{r - k{h_m}}}{{{h_m}}} \right ].
\]
It is shown that the norm of the error is
O

)
O({m^{3/8}}\exp ( - \alpha m^{1/2}))
as

m \to \infty
, where
α
