In this paper, we present some important approximation properties of Chebyshev polynomials in the Legendre norm. We mainly discuss the Chebyshev interpolation operator at the Chebyshev–Gauss–Lobatto points. The cases of single domain and multidomain for both one dimension and multi-dimensions are considered, respectively. The approximation results in Legendre norm rather than in the Chebyshev weighted norm are given, which play a fundamental role in numerical analysis of the Legendre–Chebyshev spectral method. These results are also useful in Clenshaw–Curtis quadrature which is based on sampling the integrand at Chebyshev points.

We use the multidomain Chebyshev spectral method to solve the 3-D forward direct current (dc) resistivity problem. We divided the whole domain into a number of subdomains and approximate the potential function by a separate set of Chebyshev polynomials in each subdomain. At an interface point, we require that both the potential and the flux be continuous. Numerical results show that for the same accuracy the multidomain Chebyshev spectral method is 2 to 260 times faster than the finite‐difference method.

Chebyshev spectral method based on operational matrix is applied to both systems of fractional integro-differential equations and Abel’s integral equations. Some test problems, for which the exact solution is known, are considered. Numerical results with comparisons are made to confirm the reliability of the method. Chebyshev spectral method may be considered as alternative and efficient technique for finding the approximation of system of fractional integro-differential equations and Abel’s integral equations.
