A matrix algorithm is said to be superfast (that is, runs at sublinear cost) if it involves much fewer scalars and flops than the input matrix has entries. Such algorithms have been extensively studied and widely applied in modern…
We introduce a new method with spectral accuracy to solve linear non-autonomous ordinary differential equations (ODEs) of the kind $ \frac{d}{dt}\tilde{u}(t) = \tilde{f}(t) \tilde{u}(t)$, $\tilde{u}(-1)=1$, with $\tilde{f}(t)$ an analytic…
