We construct an orthogonal wavelet basis for the interval using a linear combination of Legendre polynomial functions. The coefficients are taken as appropriate roots of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind, as has been proposed in reference [1]. A multi-resolution analysis is implemented and illustrated with analytical data and real-life signals from turbulent flow fields.

In this paper, we consider the Legendre spectral Galerkin and Legendre spectral collocation methods to approximate the solution of Urysohn integral equation. We prove that the approximated solutions of the Legendre Galerkin and Legendre collocation methods converge to the exact solution with the same orders, O(n−r) in L2-norm and O(n 1 2 −r) in infinity norm, and the iterated Legendre Galerkin ...

Abstract— A new polynomial method to solve Volterra–Fredholm Integral equations is presented in this work. The method is based upon Shifted Legendre Polynomials. The properties of Shifted Legendre Polynomials and together with Gaussian integration formula are presented and are utilized to reduce the computation of Volterra–Fredholm Integral equations to a system of algebraic equations. Some num...

Nodal point sets, and associated collocation projections, play an important role in a range of high-order methods, including Flux Reconstruction (FR) schemes. Historically, efforts have focused on identifying nodal sets that aim to minimise the L∞ error interpolating polynomial. The present work combines comprehensive review known approximation theory results, with new numerical experiments, mo...

The most common approach for approximating non-periodic function defined on a finite interval is based on considering polynomials as basis functions. In this paper we will address the non-optimallity of polynomial approximation and suggest to switch from powers of x to powers of sin(px) where p is a parameter which depends on the dimension of the approximating subspace. The new set does not suf...

In this paper, a numerical efficient method is proposed for the solution of time fractional mobile/immobile equation. The fractional derivative of equation is described in the Caputo sense. The proposed method is based on a finite difference scheme in time and Legendre spectral method in space. In this approach the time fractional derivative of mentioned equation is approximated by a scheme of ord...

In this paper I propose to estimate distributions on the unit interval semi-nonparametrically using orthonormal Legendre polynomials. This approach will be applied to the interval censored mixed proportional hazard (ICMPH) model, where the distribution of the unobserved heterogeneity is modeled semi-nonparametrically. Various conditions for the nonparametric identification of the ICMPH model ar...
