Abstract

Pseudospectral approximation provides a means to approximate the dynamics of delay differential equations (DDE) by ordinary differential equations (ODE). This article develops a computer-aided algorithm to determine the distance between the unstable manifold of a DDE and the unstable manifold of the approximating pseudospectral ODE. The algorithm is based upon the parametrization method. While a-priori the parametrization method for a vector-valued ODE involves computing a sequence of vector-valued Taylor coefficients, we show that for the pseudospectral ODE, due to its specific structure, the problem reduces to finding a sequence of scalars, which significantly simplifies the problem.
