Abstract

In this paper, a symmetric Jacobi---Gauss collocation scheme is explored for both linear and nonlinear differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) of arbitrary index. After standard index reduction techniques, a type of Jacobi---Gauss collocation scheme with $$N$$N knots is applied to differential part whereas another type of Jacobi---Gauss collocation scheme with $$N+1$$N+1 knots is applied to algebraic part of the equation. Convergence analysis for linear DAEs is performed based upon Lebesgue constant of Lagrange interpolation and orthogonal approximation. In particular, the scheme for nonlinear DAEs can be applied to Hamiltonian systems. Numerical results are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
