We consider a variant of the conventional MsFEM approach with enrichments based on Legendre polynomials, both in bulk mesh elements and their interfaces. A convergence analysis is presented. Residue-type posteriori error estimates are also established. Numerical experiments show significant reduction at limited additional off-line cost. In particular, developed here less prone to resonance erro...

Finite energy QCD sum rules with Legendre polynomial integration kernels are used to determine the heavy meson decay constant fBc , and revisit fB and fBs . Results exhibit excellent stability in a wide range of values of the integration radius in the complex squared energy plane, and of the order of the Legendre polynomial. Results are fBc = 528 ± 19 MeV, fB = 186 ± 14 MeV, and fBs = 222± 12 M...

Let F (z) = z−H(z) with order o(H(z)) ≥ 1 be a formal map from C to C and G(z) the formal inverse map of F (z). We first study the deformation Ft(z) = z − tH(z) of F (z) and its formal inverse Gt(z) = z + tNt(z). (Note that Gt=1(z) = G(z) when o(H(z)) ≥ 2.) We show that Nt(z) is the unique power series solution of a Cauchy problem of a PDE, from which we derive a recurrent formula for Gt(z). Se...

Brightness temperature difference (BTD) values are calculated for selected Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES-6) channels (3.9, 12.7 pm) and Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer channels (3.7, 12.0 pm). Daytime and nighttime discrimination of particle size information is possible given the infrared cloud extinction optical depth and the BTD value. BTD values are present...

In this paper, we apply the Legendre spectral-collocation method to obtain approximate solutions of nonlinear multiorder fractional differential equations (M-FDEs). The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. The study is conducted through illustrative example to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the presented method. The results reveal that the proposed method is ve...

We derive a new deterministic algorithm for the computation of a sparse Legendre expansion f of degree N with M N nonzero terms from only 2M function resp. derivative values f (1), j = 0, . . . , 2M − 1 of this expansion. For this purpose we apply a special annihilating filter method that allows us to separate the computation of the indices of the active Legendre basis polynomials and the evalu...

We express a certain complex-valued solution of Legendre’s differential equation as the product of an oscillatory exponential function and an integral involving only nonoscillatory elementary functions. By calculating the logarithmic derivative of this solution, we show that Legendre’s differential equation admits a nonoscillatory phase function. Moreover, we derive from our expression an asymp...
