Tchebychev Polynomial Approximations for $m^{th}$ Order Boundary Value   Problems
  Higher order boundary value problems (BVPs) play an important role modeling various scientific and engineering problems. In this article we develop an efficient numerical scheme for linear $m^{th}$ order BVPs. First we convert the higher order BVP to a first order BVP. Then we use Tchebychev orthogonal polynomials to approximate the solution of the BVP as a weighted sum of polynomials. We collocate at Tchebychev clustered grid points to generate a system of equations to approximate the weights for the polynomials. The excellency of the numerical scheme is illustrated through some examples.
