Chebyshev Polynomial Approximation for High-Order Partial Differential Equations with Complicated Conditions

摘要

In this article, a new method is presented for the solution of high-order linear partial differential equations (PDEs) with variable coefficients under the most general conditions. The method is based on the approximation by the truncated double Chebyshev series. PDE and conditions are transformed into the matrix equations, which corresponds to a system of linear algebraic equations with the unknown Chebyshev coefficients, via Chebyshev collocation points. Combining these matrix equations and then solving the system yields the Chebyshev coefficients of the solution function. Some numerical results are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the method.
