Abstract

A mechanism is described to symmetrize the ultraspherical spectral method for self-adjoint problems. The resulting discretizations are symmetric and banded. An algorithm is presented for an adaptive spectral decomposition of self-adjoint operators. Several applications are explored to demonstrate the properties of the symmetrizer and the adaptive spectral decomposition.
