Abstract
ABSTRACTThis paper describes a method for computing the coefficients in the Chebyshev expansion of a solution of an ordinary linear differential equation. The method is valid when the solution required is bounded and possesses a finite number of maxima and minima in the finite range of integration. The essence of the method is that an expansion in Chebyshev polynomials is assumed for the highest derivative occurring in the equation; the coefficients are then determined by integrating this series, substituting in the original equation and equating coefficients.Comparison is made with the Fourier series method of Dennis and Foots, and with the polynomial approximation method of Lanczos. Examples are given of the application of the method to some first and second order equations, including one eigenvalue problem.
