A spectral collocation method for functional and delay differential equations
<|reference_start|>A spectral collocation method for functional and delay differential equations: A framework for Chebyshev spectral collocation methods for the numerical solution of functional and delay differential equations (FDEs and DDEs) is described. The framework combines interpolation via the barycentric resampling matrix with a multidomain approach used to resolve isolated discontinuities propagated by non-smooth initial data. Geometric convergence is demonstrated for several examples of linear and nonlinear FDEs and DDEs with various delay types, including discrete, proportional, continuous, and state-dependent delay. The framework is a natural extension of standard spectral collocation methods based on polynomial interpolants and can be readily incorporated into existing spectral discretisations, such as in Chebfun/Chebop, allowing the automated and efficient solution of a wide class of nonlinear functional and delay differential equations.<|reference_end|>
