Analysis of Spectral Hamiltonian Boundary Value Methods (SHBVMs) for the numerical solution of ODE problems

Numerical Analysis 2025-01-20 v1

Abstract

Recently, the numerical solution of stiffly/highly-oscillatory Hamiltonian problems has been attacked by using Hamiltonian Boundary Value Methods (HBVMs) as spectral methods in time. While a theoretical analysis of this spectral approach has been only partially addressed, there is enough numerical evidence that it turns out to be very effective even when applied to a wider range of problems. Here we fill this gap by providing a thorough convergence analysis of the methods and confirm the theoretical results with the aid of a few numerical tests.
