Abstract: | In this paper, using spectral differentiation matrix and an elimination treatment of boundary conditions, Sturm-Liouville problems (SLPs) are discretized into standard matrix eigenvalue problems. The eigenvalues of the original Sturm-Liouville operator are approximated by the eigenvalues of the corresponding Chebyshev differentiation matrix (CDM). This greatly improves the efficiency of the classical Chebyshev collocation method for SLPs, where a determinant or a generalized matrix eigenvalue problem has to be computed. Furthermore, the state-of-the-art spectral method, which incorporates the barycentric rational interpolation with a conformal map, is used to solve regular SLPs. A much more accurate mapped barycentric Chebyshev differentiation matrix (MBCDM) is obtained to approximate the Sturm-Liouville operator. Compared with many other existing methods, the MBCDM method achieves higher accuracy and efficiency, i.e., it produces fewer outliers. When a large number of eigenvalues need to be computed, the MBCDM method is very competitive. Hundreds of eigenvalues up to more than ten digits accuracy can be computed in several seconds on a personal computer. |
