摘要

This paper presents a novel approach to rigorously solving initial value problems for semilinear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) using fully spectral Fourier–Chebyshev expansions. By reformulating the PDE as a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations and leveraging Chebyshev series in time, we reduce the problem to a zero-finding task for Fourier–Chebyshev coefficients. A key theoretical contribution is the derivation of an explicit decay estimate for the inverse of the linear part of the PDE, enabling larger time steps. This allows the construction of an approximate inverse for the Fréchet derivative and the application of a Newton–Kantorovich theorem to establish solution existence within explicit error bounds. Building on prior work, our method is extended to more complex partial differential equations, including the 2D Navier–Stokes equations, for which we establish global existence of the solution of the IVP for a given nontrivial initial condition.
