Abstract:
We analyze the Legendre and Chebyshev spectral Galerkin semidiscretizations of a one dimensional homogeneous parabolic problem with nonconstant coefficients. We present error estimates for both smooth and nonsmooth data. In the Chebyshev case a limit in the order of approximation is established. On the contrary, in the Legendre case we find an arbitrary high order of convegence.
