Their use for practical purposes requires the numerical approximation of their solutions, which are generally difficult to obtain analytically. Runge–Kutta methods, widely employed for this purpose, exhibit a reduction in their order of convergence when applied to this type of equations. This phenomenon limits the accuracy and efficiency of numerical simulations, making it necessary to develop new strategies to overcome it. The objective of this document is the design, analysis, and implementation of temporal numerical integration schemes, based on the rational functions of these methods, that avoid this order reduction. These problems are formulated as abstract evolution equations within the framework of semigroup theory of operators, which allows them to be treated in a unified and quite general way. In this manner, the proposed rational methods are developed progressively, starting from linear problems and subsequently incorporating nonlinear terms and boundary conditions. They exhibit good convergence, stability, and efficiency properties, which open the door to their extension to more complex problems and to their application in realistic simulations.
