Spectral Galerkin method and its application to a Cauchy problem of Helmholtz equation (Q2391822): Difference between revisions

Based on a mathematical model of laser beams, the authors present a spectral Galerkin method for solving a Cauchy problem of the Helmholtz equation in a rectangle, where the Cauchy data pairs are given at \(y=0\) and boundary data are for \(x=0\) and \(x=\pi\). The solution is sought in the interval \(0< y< 1\). The spectral Galerkin method is considered as a regularization method. Then they perform an analysis on the error bound for this method. For illustration, several numerical experiments are constructed to demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed method.
