A Legendre Petrov Galerkin ( LPG) method for the third-order differential equation is developed. By choosing appropriate base functions, the method can be implemented efficiently. Also, this new approach enables us to derive an optimal rate of convergence in L-2-norm. The method is applied to some nonlinear problems such as the Korteweg de Vries ( KdV) equation with the Chebyshev collocation treatment for the nonlinear term. It is a Legendre Petrov Galerkin and Chebyshev collocation ( LPG-CC) method. Numerical experiments are given to con rm the theoretical result.
