In this paper, the optimal conditions for fractional optimal control problems (FOCPs) were derived in which the fractional differential operators defined in terms of Caputo sense and reduces this problem to a system of fractional differential equations (FDEs) that is called twopoint boundary value (TPBV) problem. An approximate solution of this problem is constructed by using the Legendre-Gauss...

In this paper, biochemical reaction problem is given in the form of a system of non-linear differential equations involving Caputo fractional derivative. The aim is to suggest an instrumental scheme to approximate the solution of this problem. To achieve this goal, the fractional derivation terms are expanded as the elements of shifted Legendre scaling functions. Then, applying operational matr...

Based on the Legendre pseudospectral method, we propose a numerical treatment for pricing perpetual American put option with stochastic volatility. In this simple approach, a nonlinear algebraic equation system is first derived, and then solved by the Gauss-Newton algorithm. The convergence of the current scheme is ensured by constructing a test example similar to the original problem, and comp...

When numerically integrating canonical Hamiltonian systems, the long-term conservation of some of its invariants, for example the Hamiltonian function itself, assumes a central role. The classical approach to this problem has led to the definition of symplectic methods, among which we mention Gauss–Legendre collocation formulae. Indeed, in the continuous setting, energy conservation is derived ...

In a previous paper we have presented a new method of imposing boundary conditions in the pseudospectral Chebyshev approximation of a scalar hyperbolic equation. The novel idea of the new method is to collocate the equation at the boundary points as well as in the inner grid points, using the boundary conditions as penalty terms. In this paper we extend the above boundary treatment to the case ...

Two methods are presented for approximating the costate of optimal control problems in integral form using orthogonal collocation at Legendre–Gauss (LG) and Legendre–Gauss–Radau (LGR) points. It is shown that the derivative of the costate of the continuous-time optimal control problem is equal to the negative of the costate of the integral form of the continuous-time optimal control problem. Us...

Aunified framework is presented for the numerical solution of optimal control problems using collocation at Legendre–Gauss (LG), Legendre–Gauss–Radau (LGR), and Legendre–Gauss–Lobatto (LGL) points. It is shown that the LG and LGR differentiation matrices are rectangular and full rank whereas the LGL differentiation matrix is square and singular. Consequently, the LG and LGR schemes can be expre...

The fractional Legendre polynomials (FLPs) that we present as an effective method for solving delay differential equations (FDDEs) are used in this work. Liouville–Caputo sense is to characterize derivatives. This uses the spectral collocation technique based on FLPs. proposed converts FDDEs into a set of algebraic equations. We lay out study convergence analysis and figure upper bound error ap...

Nodal point sets, and associated collocation projections, play an important role in a range of high-order methods, including Flux Reconstruction (FR) schemes. Historically, efforts have focused on identifying nodal sets that aim to minimise the L∞ error interpolating polynomial. The present work combines comprehensive review known approximation theory results, with new numerical experiments, mo...
