โฆ Synopsis
The method of fundamental solutions (MFS) is a well-established boundary-type numerical method for the solution of certain two-and three-dimensional elliptic boundary value problems [1,2]. The basic ideas were introduced by Kupradze and Alexidze (see, e.g., [3]), whereas the present form of the MFS was proposed by Mathon and Johnston [4]. The aim of this work is to investigate the one-dimensionai analogue of the MFS for the solution of certain two-point boundary value problems.
In particular, the one-dimensional MFS is formulated in the case of linear scalar ordinary differential equations of even degree with constant coefficients. A mathematical justification for the method is provided and various aspects related to its applicability from both an analytical and a numerical standpoint are examined.

Let X be a space of dimension at most I. Then, the fundamental group is isomorphic to a subgroup of the first Tech homotopy group based on finite open covers. Consequently, for a onedimensional continuum X, the fundamental group is isomorphic to a subgroup of the first Tech homotopy group.
