This method shows a promising potential of outstanding convergence but still suffers from instabilities when the number of polynomials is increased. In this work, we identify the origin of these instabilities and propose a way to remove them. %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-00813180/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-00813180/file/02.12061311.pdf %L hal-00813180 %U https://hal.science/hal-00813180 %~ PRES_CLERMONT %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-BPCLERMONT %~ L2C %~ ACL-SF %~ TDS-MACS %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ UM-2015-2021
