Mathematica does not show anything after running for higher iterations

Consider a BVP: $y^{\prime\prime}=\frac{3}{2}y(t)^{2}$ with the boundary conditions $y(0)=4$ and $y(1)=1$. The exact solution is $y(t)=\frac{4}{(1+t)^{2}}$ and the initial guess is $y(t)=4-3t$. Now I ...

Solving an integral vectorial equation by iterations

I'm triying to solve a problem like the following: $$ \binom{f(t)}{g(t)}=\binom{f_0(t)}{g_0(t)}+\lambda\int_0^t ds\hat{A}(s)\binom{f(s)}{g(s)}, $$ where $f_0(t),g_0(t)$ and $\hat{A}(t)$ (a $2\times2$ ...
