The Legendre spectral tau method is introduced for finding the unknown function. The proposed method is based on expanding the approximate solution as the elements of a shifted Legendre polynomials. We reduce the problem to a set of algebraic equations by using operational matrices. Also the convergence analysis for shifted Legendre polynomials and error estimation for tau method have been discussed and approved with the exact solution. Finally, several numerical examples are given to demonstrate the high accuracy of the method. }, URL = {http://ijmsi.ir/article-1-1266-en.html}, eprint = {http://ijmsi.ir/article-1-1266-en.pdf}, journal = {Iranian Journal of Mathematical Sciences and Informatics}, doi = {}, year = {2021} }
