Abstract

This paper presents a new efficient method for the numerical solution of a linear time-dependent partial differential equation. The proposed technique includes the collocation method with Legendre wavelets for spatial discretization and the three-step Taylor method for time discretization. This procedure is third-order accurate in time. A comparative study between the proposed method and the one-step wavelet collocation method is provided. In order to verify the stability of these methods, asymptotic stability analysis is employed. Numerical illustrations are investigated to show the reliability and efficiency of the proposed method. An important property of the presented method is that unlike the one-step wavelet collocation method, it is not necessary to choose a small time step to achieve stability.

Highlights

  • In recent years, many kinds of wavelet bases have been utilized to solve functional equations; for example, Shannon wavelets [1], Daubechies wavelets [2] and Chebyshev wavelets [3,4]

  • These wavelets have been used in solving different kinds of functional equations such as integral equations [6,7], fractional equations [8,9], ordinary differential equations [5], partial differential equations [10,11], etc

  • In this paper, motivated and inspired by the ongoing research, we develop a new effective method, which combines the Legendre wavelets collocation method for spatial discretization and the mentioned three steps for time discretization in the numerical solution of a linear time-dependent partial differential equation subject to the Dirichlet boundary conditions

Summary

Introduction

Many kinds of wavelet bases have been utilized to solve functional equations; for example, Shannon wavelets [1], Daubechies wavelets [2] and Chebyshev wavelets [3,4]. For solving a class of fractional subdiffusion equation, Luo et al in 2016 [13] used the quadratic spline collocation method Another path for time discretization uses a finite difference method. In this paper, motivated and inspired by the ongoing research, we develop a new effective method, which combines the Legendre wavelets collocation method for spatial discretization and the mentioned three steps for time discretization in the numerical solution of a linear time-dependent partial differential equation subject to the Dirichlet boundary conditions. We call this method the three-step wavelet collocation method.
