A Spectral Method for Parabolic Differential Equations

Abstract

We present a spectral method for parabolic partial differential equations with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. The region Ω for the problem is assumed to be simply-connected and bounded, and its boundary is assumed to be a smooth surface. An error analysis is given, showing that spectral convergence is obtained for sufficiently smooth solution functions. Numerical examples are given in both R2 and R3.
