APPROXIMATE SOLUTION OF HIGHER ORDER LINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS BY MEANS OF A NEW RATIONAL CHEBYSHEV COLLOCATION METHOD

Abstract

In this paper, a new approximate method for solving higher-order linear ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients under the mixed conditions is presented. The method is based on the rational Chebyshev (RC) Tau, Chebyshev and Taylor collocation methods. The solution is obtained in terms of rational Chebyshev (RC) functions. Also, illustrative examples are given to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the method.
