Collocation Technique Based on Chebyshev Polynomials to Solve Emden–Fowler-Type Singular Boundary Value Problems with Derivative Dependence

Abstract

In this work, an innovative technique is presented to solve Emden–Fowler-type singular boundary value problems (SBVPs) with derivative dependence. These types of problems have significant applications in applied mathematics and astrophysics. Initially, the differential equation is transformed into a Fredholm integral equation, which is then converted into a system of nonlinear equations using the collocation technique based on Chebyshev polynomials. Subsequently, an iterative numerical approach, such as Newton’s method, is employed on the system of nonlinear equations to obtain an approximate solution. Error analysis is included to assess the accuracy of the obtained solutions and provide insights into the reliability of the numerical results. Furthermore, we graphically compare the residual errors of the current method to the previously established method for various examples.

1. Introduction

Consider Emden–Fowler-type SBVPs with derivative dependence, as expressed by the following equation:

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \left\{\begin{array}{c}{\displaystyle {\left(\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)\right)}^{\prime }=\sigma \left(t\right)\varphi (t,w\left(t\right),\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)),t\in (0,1),}\hfill \\ w\left(0\right)={\beta }_4\mathrm{or}\underset{t\to 0^{+}}{lim}\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)=0,{\beta }_{1}w\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{w}^{\prime }\left(1\right)={\beta }_3,\hfill \end{array}\right.\end{array}$$

(1)

where ${\beta }_1>0,{\beta }_2,{\beta }_3,$ and ${\beta }_4$ are real constants. Here, $\varphi (t,w\left(t\right),\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right))$ is the source function dependent on both $w\left(t\right)$ and $w^{\prime }\left(t\right).$

The conditions $\rho \left(t\right)=t^{b}p\left(t\right),p\left(0\right)\ne 0,\sigma \left(t\right)=t^{a}q\left(t\right),q\left(0\right)\ne 0,\mathrm{with}\rho \left(0\right)=0$ and the allowance of $\sigma \left(t\right)$ to be discontinuous at $t=0,$ lead to a reduction of the problem to double SBVPs [1]. Such problems are prevalent in various areas of astrophysics, including thermal explosion modeling in a rectangular slab [2,3], heat source measurements in human heads [4], oxygen concentration within spherical cells [5], shallow membrane cap theory [6], heat conduction problems [7], unsteady Poiseuille flow in a pipe [8], electroelastic dynamic problems [9], and heat explosions [10].

Solving Emden–Fowler SBVPs with derivative dependence is crucial for predicting system behaviors, such as changes in pressure, density, or temperature within stars or gaseous spheres. The solutions provide valuable insights into the structure and evolution of these systems. Finding numerical solutions for derivative-dependent second-order singular differential equations is particularly challenging due to strong nonlinearity from derivatives in the source function and the singular behavior at the origin. The motivation lies in developing numerical methods that require less computational effort while maintaining high accuracy. The collocation method has gained popularity with the widespread availability and efficiency of computers, being applied to problems in physics, engineering, and other fields.

The existence and uniqueness of the estimated solution of Equation (1) were readily obtained in [11,12,13,14,15,16] under the conditions of $\rho \in C[0,1]\cap C^1(0,1]$ with $\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\frac{dt}{\rho \left(t\right)}<\infty$ and $\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\sigma \left(t\right)dt<\infty$ for $\rho \left(t\right),\sigma \left(t\right)>0$ on (0, 1].

Several numerical methods have been developed to solve Equation (1) when $\varphi (t,w,\rho w^{\prime })=\varphi (t,w)$, including the cubic spline method [17], the finite difference method [18,19,20,21,22], the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) [23,24,25,26,27,28], the B-spline collocation method [29,30], the classical polynomial approximation method [31], etc. However, there are limited techniques available for solving Emden–Fowler SBVPs with derivative dependence. In 2014, Singh et al. [26] discussed the Adomian decomposition technique to solve an original utilizing Green’s function. In 2018, Roul [32] presented an improved normal homotopy analysis method to solve derivative-dependent SBVPs, and in 2019, Roul et al. [33] discussed quintic spline interpolation. In 2020, Shahni et al. [34] established an approximate solution for Emden–Fowler-type SBVPs with derivative dependence using Bernstein polynomials. Upon examining existing techniques, limitations were identified, such as a significant amount of computational work, especially for nonlinear singular boundary value problems. Therefore, there is a need for more efficient numerical methods that can overcome these limitations and provide a more accurate solution for nonlinear singular boundary value problems.

This work introduces a constructive approach for solving Emden–Fowler-type SBVPs with derivative dependence. In Section 2, the differential equation is converted into its equivalent Fredholm integral form. In Section 3, a collocation technique based on Chebyshev polynomials (CCM) is employed to obtain the system of nonlinear equations upon transformation of the Fredholm integral equation. Subsequently, Newton’s method is implemented to solve the system and obtain the required solution. In Section 4, the algorithm for the methodology is provided for implementing the method. In Section 5, error analysis is included to assess the accuracy of the current method. In Section 6, the maximum absolute error of the current method is computed for various examples using $L_{\infty }$ and $L_2$ norm. These numerical results are compared with those obtained using the existing BCM method [34]. The residual errors between CCM and a previously established method, i.e., BCM, are also compared graphically.

2. The Construction of the Method

The corresponding integral equations of the Emden–Fowler SBVPs are presented in this section.

2.1. Emden–Fowler SBVPs with Dirichlet–Robin Boundary Conditions

We consider the following differential equation:

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \left\{\begin{array}{c}{\displaystyle {\left(\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)\right)}^{\prime }=\sigma \left(t\right)\varphi (t,w\left(t\right),\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)),t\in (0,1),}\hfill \\ w\left(0\right)={\beta }_4,{\beta }_{1}w\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{w}^{\prime }\left(1\right)={\beta }_3.\hfill \end{array}\right.\end{array}$$

(2)

The equivalent Fredholm integral form of Equation (2) is

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill w\left(t\right)={\beta }_4+\frac{({\beta }_3-{\beta }_1{\beta }_4)}{{\beta }_{1}h\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{h}^{\prime }\left(1\right)}h\left(t\right)+\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)\varphi (\zeta ,w\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))d\zeta ,t\in (0,1),\end{array}$$

(3)

where

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill {\displaystyle \kappa (t,\zeta )=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}{\displaystyle h\left(t\right)-\left(\frac{{\beta }_{1}h\left(\zeta \right)h\left(t\right)}{{\beta }_{1}h\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{h}^{\prime }\left(1\right)}\right),}\hfill & t\le \zeta ,\hfill \\ {\displaystyle h\left(\zeta \right)-\left(\frac{{\beta }_{1}h\left(\zeta \right)h\left(t\right)}{{\beta }_{1}h\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{h}^{\prime }\left(1\right)}\right),}\hfill & \zeta \le t,\hfill \end{array}\right.}\end{array}$$

(4)

$h\left(t\right)=\underset{0}{\overset{t}{\int }}\frac{1}{\rho \left(\zeta \right)}d\zeta$, $h\left(1\right)=\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\frac{1}{\rho \left(\zeta \right)}d\zeta$ and $h^{\prime }\left(1\right)=\frac{1}{\rho \left(1\right)}.$

2.2. Emden–Fowler SBVPs with Neumann–Robin Boundary Conditions

We consider the following differential equation:

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \left\{\begin{array}{c}{\displaystyle {\left(\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)\right)}^{\prime }=\sigma \left(t\right)\varphi \left(t,w\left(t\right),\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)\right),t\in (0,1)}\hfill \\ \underset{t\to 0^{+}}{lim}\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)=0,{\beta }_{1}w\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{w}^{\prime }\left(1\right)={\beta }_3.\hfill \end{array}\right.\end{array}$$

(5)

Its equivalent Fredholm integral form is

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill w\left(t\right)=\frac{{\beta }_3}{{\beta }_1}+\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)\varphi \left(\zeta ,w\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right)\right)d\zeta ,t\in (0,1),\end{array}$$

(6)

where

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \kappa (t,\zeta )=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}{\displaystyle \underset{\zeta }{\overset{1}{\int }}\frac{1}{\rho \left(t\right)}dt+\frac{{\beta }_2}{{\beta }_1\rho \left(1\right)},}\hfill & t\le \zeta ,\hfill \\ {\displaystyle \underset{\zeta }{\overset{1}{\int }}\frac{1}{\rho \left(t\right)}dt-\underset{\zeta }{\overset{t}{\int }}\frac{1}{\rho \left(t\right)}dt+\frac{{\beta }_2}{{\beta }_1\rho \left(1\right)},}\hfill & \zeta \le t.\hfill \end{array}\right.\end{array}$$

(7)

3. Chebyshev Collocation Method (CCM)

This section includes the derivation of the CCM to approximate integral Equations (3) and (6).

Definition 1.

Shifted Chebyshev polynomials (SCPs) are defined on $[0,1]$ by introducing a new variable ($s=2t-1$) as

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \left\{\begin{array}{c}{\displaystyle {\tau }_0\left(t\right)=1,}\hfill \\ {\tau }_1\left(t\right)=2t-1,\hfill \\ {\tau }_n\left(t\right)=2(2t-1){\tau }_{n-1}\left(t\right)-{\tau }_{n-2}\left(t\right).\hfill \end{array}\right.\end{array}$$

(8)

We can approximate a function ($f\left(t\right)\in L^2[0,1]$) by shifted Chebyshev polynomials (SCPs) as

$$f\left(t\right)=\sum _{r=0}^{\infty }{c}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right).$$

(9)

For the purpose of numerical calculations, we take into account the initial $(n+1)$ terms of the aforementioned expansion, and it becomes

$$f\left(t\right)\approx \sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right)={\mathbf{A}}^{\mathbf{T}}\mathit{\tau }\left(t\right),$$

(10)

where $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathit{\tau }\left(t\right)$ are column vectors, as follows:

$$\mathbf{A}={[c_0,c_1,\cdots ,c_n]}^T,\mathit{\tau }\left(t\right)={[{\tau }_0\left(t\right),{\tau }_1\left(t\right),\cdots ,{\tau }_n\left(t\right)]}^T.$$

(11)

3.1. Dirichlet–Robin Boundary Conditions

To apply the current approach, we consider Equation (3) as

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill w\left(t\right)={\beta }_4+\frac{({\beta }_3-{\beta }_1{\beta }_4)}{{\beta }_{1}h\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{h}^{\prime }\left(1\right)}h\left(t\right)+\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)\varphi (\zeta ,w\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))d\zeta ,t\in (0,1).\end{array}$$

We take

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill z\left(t\right)=\varphi \left(t,w\left(t\right),\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)\right).\end{array}$$

(12)

We approximate $w\left(t\right)$, $w^{\prime }\left(t\right)$ and $z\left(t\right)$ by using Equation (10),

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill w\left(t\right)& {\displaystyle \approx \sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right),}\hfill \end{array}$$

(13)

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill w^{\prime }\left(t\right)& {\displaystyle \approx \sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r^{\prime }\left(t\right),}\hfill \end{array}$$

(14)

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill z\left(t\right)& {\displaystyle \approx \sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right).}\hfill \end{array}$$

(15)

By substituting Equations (12), (13), and (15) into (3), we obtain

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right)={\beta }_4+\frac{({\beta }_3-{\beta }_1{\beta }_4)}{{\beta }_{1}h\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{h}^{\prime }\left(1\right)}h\left(t\right)+\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right){\tau }_r\left(\zeta \right)d\zeta .\end{array}$$

(16)

It can be expressed as

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right)={\beta }_4+\frac{({\beta }_3-{\beta }_1{\beta }_4)}{{\beta }_{1}h\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{h}^{\prime }\left(1\right)}h\left(t\right)+\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{K}_r\left(t\right),\end{array}$$

(17)

where

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill K_r\left(t\right)=\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right){\tau }_r\left(\zeta \right)d\zeta ,r=0,1,\cdots ,n.\end{array}$$

(18)

We differentiate Equation (17) with respect to t as

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r^{\prime }\left(t\right)=\frac{({\beta }_3-{\beta }_1{\beta }_4)}{{\beta }_{1}h\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{h}^{\prime }\left(1\right)}{h}^{\prime }\left(t\right)+\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{K}_r^{\prime }\left(t\right),\end{array}$$

(19)

where

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill K_r^{\prime }\left(t\right)=\frac{d}{dt}\left(\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right){\tau }_r\left(\zeta \right)d\zeta \right),r=0,1,\cdots ,n.\end{array}$$

(20)

Then, by plugging Equations (13)–(15) into (12), we obtain

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right)=\varphi \left(t,\sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right),\rho \left(t\right)\sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r^{\prime }\left(t\right)\right).\end{array}$$

(21)

By substituting Equations (17) and (19) into (21) and inserting the collocation points ($t_s=\frac{1}{2}\left\{cos\left(\frac{(2s+1)\pi }{2n}\right)+1\right\}$, where $s=0,1,\cdots ,n$) into Equation (21), we have

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill \sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{\tau }_r\left(t_s\right)& {\displaystyle -\varphi (t_s,{\beta }_4+\frac{({\beta }_3-{\beta }_1{\beta }_4)}{{\beta }_{1}h\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{h}^{\prime }\left(1\right)}h\left(t_s\right)+\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{K}_r\left(t_s\right),}\hfill \\ \hfill & {\displaystyle \rho \left(t_s\right)\frac{({\beta }_3-{\beta }_1{\beta }_4)}{{\beta }_{1}h\left(1\right)+{\beta }_2{h}^{\prime }\left(1\right)}{h}^{\prime }\left(t_s\right)+\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{K}_r^{\prime }\left(t_s\right))=0,s=0,1,\cdots ,n,}\hfill \end{array}$$

(22)

where $d_0,d_1,\cdots ,d_n$ are unknowns.

In order to obtain the approximate solution of Equation (3), we substitute the unknown coefficients in Equations (17) and (19), which are obtained by applying the iteration approach to Equation (22).

Note that a desired accuracy ($ϵ$) of Newton’s method can be obtained by using the stopping criteria ($\parallel {\mathit{\tau }}^{[s+1]}-{\mathit{\tau }}^{\left[s\right]}\parallel <ϵ).$

3.2. Neumann–Robin Boundary Conditions

Consider Equation (6) as

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill w\left(t\right)=\frac{{\beta }_3}{{\beta }_1}+\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)\varphi (\zeta ,w\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))d\zeta ,t\in (0,1).\end{array}$$

(23)

Using similar steps as in the previous subsection, we input the expressions from Equations (13) and (14) into (23), yielding

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right)=\frac{{\beta }_3}{{\beta }_1}+\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right){\tau }_r\left(\zeta \right)d\zeta ,\end{array}$$

(24)

which can be represented as

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right)=\frac{{\beta }_3}{{\beta }_1}+\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{K}_r\left(t\right)\end{array}$$

(25)

and

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \sum _{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r^{\prime }\left(t\right)=\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{K}_r^{\prime }\left(t\right).\end{array}$$

(26)

Then, by plugging Equations (25) and (26) into (21) and inserting the collocation points ($t_s=\frac{1}{2}\left\{cos\left(\frac{(2s+1)\pi }{2n}\right)+1\right\}$, $s=0,1,\cdots ,n$), we obtain

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{\tau }_r\left(t_s\right)-\varphi \left(t_s,\frac{{\beta }_3}{{\beta }_1}+\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{K}_r\left(t_s\right),\rho \left(t_s\right)\sum _{r=0}^n{d}_r{K}_r^{\prime }\left(t_s\right)\right)=0,s=0,1,\cdots ,n.\end{array}$$

(27)

In order to obtain the approximate solutions of Equation (23), we substitute the unknown coefficients ($d_0,d_1,\cdots ,d_n$) into Equations (25) and (26), which are obtained by applying Newton’s method [35] to Equation (27).

4. Algorithm of the Methodology

The procedure for determining unknown coefficients in the CCM method is outlined by the following algorithm:

• Input the degree of the Chebyshev polynomials, i.e., n.
• Approximate $w\left(t\right)$ and $\varphi (t,w\left(t\right),\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right))$ via Equation (13).
• Input the collocation points ($t_s=\frac{1}{2}\left\{cos\left(\frac{(2s+1)\pi }{2n}\right)+1\right\}$, $s=0,1,\cdots ,n$).
• Obtain a nonlinear equation in unknowns, i.e., $d_0,d_1,\cdots ,d_n$.
• Via Newton’s method, the numerical solution is obtained.

5. Error Analysis

Let the norm of the Banach space ($X=C[0,1]\cap C^1(0,1]$) be defined as

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \parallel w\parallel =\max \left\{{\parallel w\parallel }_0,{\parallel w\parallel }_1\right\},w\in X,\end{array}$$

(28)

where

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill {\displaystyle {\parallel w\parallel }_0=\underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}\left|w\left(t\right)\right|,}\end{array}$$

(29)

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill {\displaystyle {\parallel w\parallel }_1=\underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}\left|\rho \left(t\right)w^{\prime }\left(t\right)\right|.}\end{array}$$

(30)

Theorem 1.

Let the sequence $\left\{{\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(f\right)\right\}$ converge uniformly to $f\left(t\right)\in C[0,1]$, where ${\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(f\right)={\sum }_{r=0}^n{c}_r{\tau }_r\left(t\right)$ is the Chebyshev approximation function. Then, for a given $ϵ>0$, there exists a number (n) such that

$$\parallel {\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(f\right)-f\parallel <ϵ.$$

Proof of Theorem 1.

The proof is provided in [36]. □

Theorem 2.

Consider a bounded function (f) in $[0,1]$ and that its second derivative exists. Then, the error bound can be derived as

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \parallel {\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(f\right)-f\parallel \le \frac{\parallel f^{″}\parallel }{2n}\underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}\left(t(1-t)\right)=\frac{\parallel f^{″}\parallel }{8n},\end{array}$$

(31)

which exhibits the rate of convergence ($1/n$) for Chebyshev’s approximation function [37], provided $f^{″}\left(t\right)\ne 0$.

Proof of Theorem 2.

The proof is provided in [38]. □

Theorem 3.

Consider a Banach space (X) with the norm as defined in Equation (28). Let $w_n\left(t\right)$ and $w\left(t\right)$ represent the approximate and exact solutions of the integral Equation (3), respectively. Furthermore, the nonlinear function $\varphi (t,w\left(t\right),\rho w^{\prime }\left(t\right))$ also satisfies the Lipschitz condition, as follows:

$$|\varphi (t,w,\rho w^{\prime })-\varphi (t,w_n,\rho w_n^{\prime })|\le l_1|w-w_n|+l_2\left|\rho (w^{\prime }-w_n^{\prime })\right|,$$

(32)

where $l_1$ and $l_2$ are the Lipschitz constants. Then, for the CCM, the estimated error bound is determined as

$$\parallel w-w_n\parallel \le \frac{vlm}{4n},$$

(33)

where $l=\max (l_1,l_2)$, $m=\max (m_1,m_2)$, $v=\parallel w^{″}\parallel$,

$${\displaystyle m_1=\underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}\left|{\int }_0^1\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)\right|d\zeta \le \infty ,}$$

(34)

$${\displaystyle m_2=\underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}\left|{\int }_0^1\rho \left(t\right){\kappa }_t(t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)\right|d\zeta \le \infty .}$$

(35)

Proof of Theorem 3.

Consider

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill \parallel w-w_n{\parallel }_0& =\underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}\left|\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)\left(\varphi (\zeta ,w\left(\zeta \right),w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))-\varphi (\zeta ,w_n\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w_n^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))\right)d\zeta \right|\hfill \\ \hfill & {\displaystyle =\underset{\zeta \in [0,1]}{max}|\varphi (\zeta ,w\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))-\varphi (\zeta ,w_n\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w_n^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))|}\hfill \\ & {\displaystyle \times \underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}\left|{\int }_0^1\kappa (t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)d\zeta \right|.}\hfill \end{array}$$

Using Equations (32) and (34), we obtain

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill \parallel w-w_n{\parallel }_0& \le m_1\underset{\zeta \in [0,1]}{max}{l}_1|(w\left(\zeta \right)-w_n\left(\zeta \right))|+l_2\left|\rho \left(\zeta \right)(w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right)-w_n^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))\right|\hfill \\ \hfill & {\displaystyle \le 2l{m}_{1}max\left(\parallel w-w_n{\parallel }_0,{\parallel w-w_n\parallel }_1\right)}\hfill \\ \hfill & {\displaystyle =2l{m}_1\parallel w-w_n\parallel .}\hfill \end{array}$$

(36)

Similarly, we consider

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill \parallel w-w_n{\parallel }_1& =\underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}\left|\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\rho \left(\zeta \right){\kappa }_t(t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)\left(\varphi (\zeta ,w\left(\zeta \right),w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))-\varphi (\zeta ,w_n\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w_n^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))\right)d\zeta \right|\hfill \\ \hfill & {\displaystyle =\underset{\zeta \in [0,1]}{max}|\varphi (\zeta ,w\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))-\varphi (\zeta ,w_n\left(\zeta \right),\rho \left(\zeta \right)w_n^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))|}\hfill \\ & {\displaystyle \times \underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}\left|{\int }_0^1\rho \left(t\right){\kappa }_t(t,\zeta )\sigma \left(\zeta \right)d\zeta \right|.}\hfill \end{array}$$

Using Equations (32) and (35), we have

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill \parallel w-w_n{\parallel }_1& {\displaystyle \le m_2\underset{\zeta \in [0,1]}{max}{l}_1|(w\left(\zeta \right)-w_n\left(\zeta \right))|+l_2\left|\rho \left(\zeta \right)(w^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right)-w_n^{\prime }\left(\zeta \right))\right|}\hfill \\ \hfill & {\displaystyle \le 2l{m}_{2}max\left(\parallel w-w_n{\parallel }_0,{\parallel w-w_n\parallel }_1\right)}\hfill \\ \hfill & =2l{m}_2\parallel w-w_n\parallel .\hfill \end{array}$$

(37)

From Equations (36) and (37), we have

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill \parallel w-w_n\parallel & {\displaystyle =max\left(\parallel w-w_n{\parallel }_0,{\parallel w-w_n\parallel }_1\right)}\hfill \\ \hfill & {\displaystyle \le max\left(2l{m}_1\parallel w-w_n{\parallel }_0,2l{m}_2{\parallel w-w_n\parallel }_1\right)}\hfill \\ \hfill & \le 2lm\parallel w-w_n\parallel \hfill \\ \hfill & =2lm\underset{\zeta \in [0,1]}{max}\parallel w-w_n\parallel .\hfill \end{array}$$

(38)

Utilizing the CCM, we obtain the approximate solution (${\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(w\left(t\right)\right)$) of Equations (3) and (6). We replace $w_n\left(\zeta \right)$ with the Chebyshev solution (${\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(w\left(\zeta \right)\right)$), Equation (38) reduces to

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill \parallel w-w_n\parallel & {\displaystyle \le 2lm\underset{\zeta \in [0,1]}{max}\parallel w\left(\zeta \right)-{\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(w\left(\zeta \right)\right)\parallel }\hfill \\ \hfill & {\displaystyle \le 2lm\parallel w-{\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(w\right)\parallel .}\hfill \end{array}$$

(39)

Replacing f with w and t with $\zeta$ in Equation yields (31)

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \parallel {\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(w\right)-w\parallel \le \frac{\parallel w^{″}\parallel }{2n}\underset{\zeta \in [0,1]}{max}\left(\zeta (1-\zeta )\right)=\frac{\parallel w^{″}\parallel }{8n}.\end{array}$$

(40)

If $v=\parallel w^{″}\parallel$, then Equation (40) becomes

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \parallel {\mathit{\tau }}_n\left(w\right)-w\parallel \le \frac{v}{8n}.\end{array}$$

(41)

Inputting Equation (41) into Equation (39), we obtain

$$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill \parallel w-w_n\parallel & \le 2lm\left(\frac{v}{8n}\right)\hfill \\ \hfill & =\frac{vlm}{4n}.\hfill \end{array}$$

6. Numerical Illustration

We utilized MATLAB (R2015a) to determine maximum absolute errors using both $L_{\infty }$ and $L_2$ norms for various examples to assess the accuracy of the current approach. Subsequently, we compared these results with those obtained using the BCM in the different tables and also graphically compared residual errors. We define $L_{\infty }$ and $L_2$ norm errors as follows:

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill L_{\infty }=\underset{t\in [0,1]}{max}|w\left(t\right)-w_n\left(t\right)|,\end{array}$$

and

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill L_2={\left(\sum _{j=1}^m{|w\left(t_j\right)-w_n\left(t_j\right)|}^2\right)}^{1/2},\end{array}$$

where $w_n\left(t\right)$ and $w\left(t\right)$ represent the approximate and exact solutions, respectively.

Furthermore, the residual error is defined as:

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill r_n\left(t\right)=|{\left(\rho \left(t\right)w_n^{\prime }\left(t\right)\right)}^{\prime }-\sigma \left(t\right)\varphi (t,w_n\left(t\right),\rho \left(t\right)w_n^{\prime }\left(t\right))|,\\ \hfill R_n\left(t\right)=|{\left(\rho \left(t\right)w_n^{\prime }\left(t\right)\right)}^{\prime }-\sigma \left(t\right)\varphi (t,w_n\left(t\right),\rho \left(t\right)w_n^{\prime }\left(t\right))|,\end{array}$$

where $r_n\left(t\right)$ and $R_n\left(t\right)$ are obtained by using the CCM and the BCM, respectively.

Example 1.

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \left\{\begin{array}{c}{\displaystyle {\left(t^b{w}^{\prime }\right)}^{\prime }=t^{b+q-2}\left(qt{w}^{\prime }+q(b+q-1)w\right),t\in (0,1),}\hfill \\ w\left(0\right)=1,w\left(1\right)=e.\hfill \end{array}\right.\end{array}$$

(43)

The equivalent integral form is

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill w\left(t\right)=1+\frac{e-1}{{(1-b)}^2}{t}^{1-b}+\underset{0}{\overset{1}{\int }}\kappa (t,\zeta ){\zeta }^{b+q-2}\left(q\zeta w^{\prime }+q(b+q-1)w\left(\zeta \right)\right)d\zeta ,\end{array}$$

where

$$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \kappa (t,\zeta )=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}{\displaystyle \frac{t^{1-b}}{1-b}\left(1-{\zeta }^{1-b}\right),}\hfill & t\le \zeta ,\hfill \\ {\displaystyle \frac{{\zeta }^{1-b}}{1-b}\left(1-t^{1-b}\right),}\hfill & \zeta \le t.\hfill \end{array}\right.\end{array}$$

The exact solution of differential Equation (43) is $w\left(t\right)=e^{t^q}.$

We present a comparison of errors using the $L_{\infty }$ norm of the CCM with the BCM for $q=1$ and $q=2.5$ in

7. Conclusions

We employed an efficient technique to approximate the numerical solution of Emden–Fowler-type SBVPs with derivative dependence. This approach utilizes the collocation technique based on Chebyshev polynomials, considering the equivalent Fredholm integral form. The major advantage of the current technique is its ability to reach the requisite level of accuracy compared to previously established methods, such as the BCM [34]. Under quite general conditions, an error analysis was established to asses the accuracy of the current technique. To validate this accuracy, we considered various numerical examples to compute the maximum absolute errors using the $L_{\infty }$ and $L_2$ norms. These results were then compared with those of the existing BCM method [34], demonstrating that the current approach is superior. Moreover, a graphical comparison of residual errors between the CCM and the BCM illustrates that the residual errors of the CCM are significantly lower than those of the BCM. Overall, the current method (CCM) renders a promising and accurate solution of these types of mathematical problems. The proposed techniques can be extended to solve systems of higher-order singular differential equations with a set of local and nonlocal boundary conditions. Additionally, the presented collocation techniques can be applied to gain insights into nonlinear singular pantograph delay differential models arising in various natural and physical phenomena. Furthermore, the current approach can be applied to solve Fredholm–Volterra- type integro-differential equations and fractional Lane–Emden–Fowler-type equations.
