Convergence rates of spectral orthogonal projection approximation for functions of algebraic and logarithmatic regularities
share
Based on the Hilb type formula between Jacobi polynomials and Bessel functions, optimal decay rates on Jacobi expansion coefficients are derived, by applying van der Corput type lemmas, for functions of logarithmatic singularities, which leads to the optimal convergence rates on the Jacobi, Gegenbauer and Chebyshev orthogonal projections. It is interesting to see that for boundary singularities, one may get faster convergence rate on the Jacobi or Gegenbauer projection as (α,β) and λ increases. The larger values of parameter, the higher convergence rates can be achieved. In particular, the Legendre projection has one half order higher than Chebyshev. Moreover, if min{α,β}>0 and λ>1/2, the Jacobi and Gegenbauer orthogonal projections have higher convergence orders compared with Legendre. While for interior singularity, the convergence order is independent of (α,β) and λ.
