Abstract This paper is dedicated to implementing and presenting numerical algorithms for solving some linear and nonlinear even-order two-point boundary value problems. For this purpose, we establish new explicit formulas for the high-order derivatives of certain two classes of Jacobi polynomials in terms of their corresponding Jacobi polynomials. These two classes generalize the two celebrated non-symmetric classes of polynomials, namely, Chebyshev polynomials of third- and fourth-kinds. The idea of the derivation of such formulas is essentially based on making use of the power series representations and inversion formulas of these classes of polynomials. The derived formulas serve in converting the even-order… More >

Abstract In this paper, the three-variable shifted Jacobi operational matrix of fractional derivatives is used together with the collocation method for numerical solution of three-dimensional multi-term fractional-order PDEs with variable coefficients. The main characteristic behind this approach is that it reduces such problems to those of solving a system of algebraic equations which greatly simplifying the problem. The approximate solutions of nonlinear fractional PDEs with variable coefficients thus obtained by three-variable shifted Jacobi polynomials are compared with the exact solutions. Furthermore some theorems and lemmas are introduced to verify the convergence results of our algorithm. Lastly, several numerical examples are presented… More >

Abstract In this paper, a high accurate numerical approach is investigated for solving the time-fractional linear and nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equations. These equations are the most appropriate and desirable definition for physical modeling. The spectral collocation method and the operational matrix of fractional derivatives are used together with the help of the Gauss-quadrature formula in order to reduce such problem into a problem consists of solving a system of algebraic equations which greatly simplifying the problem. Our approach is based on the shifted Jacobi polynomials and the fractional derivative is described in the sense of Caputo. In addition, the presented… More >

Abstract A method is presented for improving the accuracy of the widely used Gauss-Legendre Nyström method for determining approximate solutions of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind on finite intervals. The authors' recent continuous-kernel approach is generalised in order to accommodate kernels that are either singular or of limited continuous differentiability at a finite number of points within the interval of integration. This is achieved by developing a Gauss-Jacobi Nyström method that moreover includes a mean-value estimate of the truncation error of the Hermite interpolation on which the quadrature rule is based, making it particularly accurate at low orders.
