The Chebyshev?tau spectral method for approximating eigenvalues of boundary value problems may produce spurious eigenvalues with large positive real parts, even when all true eigenvalues of the problem are known to have negative real parts. We explain the origin and nature of the “spurious eigenvalues” in an example problem. The explanation will demonstrate that the large positive eigenvalues are an approximation of infinite eigenvalues in a nearby generalized eigenvalue problem.
