In this paper, we propose and analyze some schemes of the integral collocation formulation based on Legendre polynomials. We implement these formulae to solve numerically Riccati, Logistic and delay differential equations with variable coefficients. The properties of the Legendre polynomials are used to reduce the proposed problems to the solution of non-linear system of algebraic equations usi...

This proceeding is intended to be a first introduction to spectral methods. It is written around some simple problems that are solved explicitly and in details and that aim at demonstrating the power of those methods. The mathematical foundation of the spectral approximation is first introduced, based on the Gauss quadratures. The two usual basis of Legendre and Chebyshev polynomials are then p...

It is often the case that the exact moments of a statistic of the continuous type can be explicitly determined, while its density function either does not lend itself to numerical evaluation or proves to be mathematically intractable. The density approximants discussed in this article are based on the first n exact moments of the corresponding distributions. A unified semiparametric approach to...

In this paper an iterative method based on shifted Legendre polynomials is presented to obtain the approximate solutions of optimal control problems subject to integral equations. The operational matrices of integration and product of shifted Legendre polynomials for solving integral equation is employed. The methodology is based on the parametrization of control and state functions. This conve...

in this article we decide to define a modified homotopy perturbation for solving non-linear integral equations. almost, all of the papers that was presented to solve non-linear problems by the homotopy method, they used from two non-linear and linear operators. but we convert a non-linear problem to two suitable non-linear operators also we use from appropriate bases functions such as legendre ...

The principle result of this paper is the following operational Tau method based upon Müntz-Legendre polynomials. This methodology provides a computational technique for numerical solution of fractional differential equations by using a sequence of matrix operations. The main property of Müntz polynomials is that fractional derivatives of these polynomials can be expressed in terms of the same ...

In paper [4], transformation matrices mapping the Legendre and Bernstein forms of a polynomial of degree n into each other are derived and examined. In this paper, we derive a matrix of transformation of Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind into Bernstein polynomials and vice versa. We also study the stability of these linear maps and show that the Chebyshev–Bernstein basis conversion is rem...

We extend a collocation method for solving a nonlinear ordinary differential equation ODE via Jacobi polynomials. To date, researchers usually use Chebyshev or Legendre collocation method for solving problems in chemistry, physics, and so forth, see the works of Doha and Bhrawy 2006, Guo 2000, and Guo et al. 2002 . Choosing the optimal polynomial for solving every ODEs problem depends on many f...
