An Introduction to the Numerical Analysis of Spectral Methods

Mercier, Bertrand.

An Introduction to the Numerical Analysis of Spectral Methods [electronic resource] / by Bertrand Mercier. - V, 154 p. 1 illus. online resource. - Lecture Notes in Physics, 318 0075-8450 ; . - Lecture Notes in Physics, 318 .

This is a very lucid introduction to spectral methods emphasizing the mathematical aspects of the theory rather than the many applications in numerical analysis and the engineering sciences. The first part is a fairly complete introduction to Fourier series while the second emphasizes polynomial expansion methods like Chebyshev's. The author gives rigorous proofs of fundamental results related to one-dimensional advection and diffusions equations. The book addresses students as well as practitioners of numerical analysis.
