Elgindy" ], "categories": [ "math.NA", "cs.NA" ], "abstract": "This study presents the Fourier-Gegenbauer Integral-Galerkin (FGIG) method, a novel and efficient numerical framework for solving the one-dimensional advection-diffusion equation with periodic boundary conditions. The FGIG method uniquely combines Fourier series for spatial periodicity and Gegenbauer polynomials for temporal integration within a Galerkin framework, resulting in highly accurate numerical and semi-analytical solutions. Distinctively, this approach eliminates the need for time-stepping procedures by reformulating the problem as a system of integral equations, reducing error accumulation over long-time simulations and improving computational efficiency. Key contributions include exponential convergence rates for smooth solutions, robustness under oscillatory conditions, and an inherently parallelizable structure, enabling scalable computation for large-scale problems. Additionally, the method introduces a barycentric formulation of shifted-Gegenbauer-Gauss quadrature to ensure high accuracy and stability for relatively low P\\'eclet numbers. Numerical experiments validate the method's superior performance over traditional techniques, demonstrating its potential for extending to higher-dimensional problems and diverse applications in computational mathematics and engineering.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2025-01-04T15:05:15.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "periodic boundary conditions", "fourier-gegenbauer integral-galerkin method", "one-dimensional advection-diffusion equation", "relatively low peclet numbers", "ensure high accuracy" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
