This article provides an overview of some recent developments in quantum dynamic and spectroscopic calculations using the Chebyshev propagator. It is shown that the Chebyshev operator ( Tk (Ĥ)) can be considered as a discrete cosine type propagator ( cos(kΘ̂)), in which the angle operator ( Θ̂ = arccos Ĥ ) is a single-valued mapping of the scaled Hamiltonian ( Ĥ ) and the order (k) is an effectiv...

We introduce a new and eecient Chebyshev-Legendre Galerkin method for elliptic problems. The new method is based on a Legendre-Galerkin formulation, but only the Chebyshev-Gauss-Lobatto points are used in the computation. Hence, it enjoys advantages of both the Legendre-Galerkin and Chebyshev-Galerkin methods.

A weighted orthogonal system on the half line based on the Chebyshev rational functions is introduced. Basic results on Chebyshev rational approximations of several orthogonal projections and interpolations are established. To illustrate the potential of the Chebyshev rational spectral method, a model problem is considered both theoretically and numerically: error estimates for the Chebyshev ra...

We describe a fast method for the evaluation of an arbitrary high-dimensional multivariate algebraic polynomial in Chebyshev form at the nodes of an arbitrary rank-1 Chebyshev lattice. Our main focus is on conditions on rank-1 Chebyshev lattices allowing for the exact reconstruction of such polynomials from samples along such lattices and we present an algorithm for constructing suitable rank-1...

We show that Chebyshev Polynomials are a practical representation of computable functions on the computable reals. The paper presents error estimates for common operations and demonstrates that Chebyshev Polynomial methods would be more efficient than Taylor Series methods for evaluation of transcendental functions. Keywords—Approximation Theory, Chebyshev Polynomial, Computable Functions, Comp...

We introduce a new and efficient Chebyshev-Legendre Galerkin method for elliptic problems. The new method is based on a Legendre-Galerkin formulation, but only the Chebyshev-Gauss-Lobatto points are used in the computation. Hence, it enjoys advantages of both the LegendreGalerkin and Chebyshev-Galerkin methods.

We give two recursive expressions for both MacWilliams and Chebyshev matrices. The expressions give rise to simple recursive algorithms for constructing the matrices. In order to derive the second recursion for the Chebyshev matrices we find out the Krawtchouk coefficients of the Discrete Chebyshev polynomials, a task interesting on its own.

A method for calculating the strict Chebyshev solution of overdetermined systems of linear equations using linear programming techniques is described. This method provides: (1) a way to determine, for the majority of cases, all the equations belonging to the characteristic set, (2) an efficient method to obtain the inverse of the matrix needed to calculate the strict Chebyshev solution, and (3)...

We analyze whether a given set of analytic functions is an Extended Chebyshev system. This family of functions appears studying the number of limit cycles bifurcating from some nonlinear vector field in the plane. Our approach is mainly based on the so called Derivation-Division algorithm. We prove that under some natural hypotheses our family is an Extended Chebyshev system and when some of th...
