A numerical method for one-dimensional diffusion problem using Fourier transform and the B-spline Galerkin method. (English) Zbl 1189.65222

The authors propose a numerical method to approximate solutions of diffusion transport equations in one dimensional space. The algorithm combines the B-spline Galerkin method, the Fourier transform and Gauss-Hermite quadrature formulation. The main results of the paper are concerned with the existence, uniqueness and upper error bounds of the solution to the discretized problem. Numerical experiments performed in the final part of the paper support the theoretical findings.
