Abstract

A Fourier spectral method for the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation with periodic boundary conditions is analyzed, and a corresponding optimal error estimate in L2-norm is obtained. It improves the result presented by Maday and Quarteroni. A modified Fourier pseudospectral method is also presented, with the same convergence properties as the Fourier spectral method.
