Legendre spectral collocation in space and time for PDEs (Q527815)

It is shown that the Lagrange space-time spectral collocation method of \textit{T. Tang} and \textit{X. Xu} [``Accuracy enhancement using spectral post processing for differential equations and integral equations'', Commun. Comput. Phys. 5, 779--792 (2009)] converges spectrally in both space and time. The condition number of this method is obtained to be bounded by \(O(N^4)\). A parallel space-time spectral collocation method is also proposed. Experiments on various problems are also conducted.
