Theorem 1. Finite difference schemes (12)-(13) are balanced.
Proof. Consider, e.g., (16). Multiplying the left-hand side by τRΔλ ,wehave

Summing all over the k 's, due to the periodicity in λ the terms with D 1 / 2
cancel.
Doing in the same manner with the right-hand side of (16), we find

Theorem 2. The finite difference operators A Δλ and A Δϕ in (12)-(13) are negative
definite.
Calculations for (13) can be done in a similar way.
Proof. Consider (13) on grid (11). Multiply the right-hand side by T l | cos ϕ l |
and sum
all over the l 's. It holds

Here l = l − 1 , and we used the periodicity of the solution in ϕ .
Calculations for (12) are similar.
