We study convergence of a combined spectral and (SN) discrete ordinates approximation for a multidimensional, steady state, linear transport problem with isotropic scattering. The procedure is based on expansion of the angular flux in a truncated series of Chebyshev polynomials in spatial variables

β¦ Synopsis
A wide range of applications requires an accurate solution of a particular Hamilton-Jacobi (H-J) equation known as the Eikonal equation. In this paper, we employ the Chebyshev pseudospectral viscosity method to solve this equation. This method essentially consists of adding a spectral viscosity to the equation for high wave numbers of the numerical solution. This spectral viscosity, which is sufficiently small to retain the formal spectral accuracy is large enough to stabilize the numerical scheme. Here the method is described in detail and the numerical results for several examples are provided which reveals the efficiency of the proposed method.

## Abstract A Chebyshev expansion method for the parabolic and Burgers equations is developed. The spatial derivatives are approximated by the Chebyshev polynomials and the time derivative is treated by a finiteβdifference scheme. The accuracy of the resultant is modified by using suitable extrapol
