AB - <p style="text-align: justify;">We propose and analyze spectral direction splitting schemes for the incompressible
Navier-Stokes equations. The schemes combine a Legendre-spectral method
for the spatial discretization and a pressure-stabilization/direction splitting scheme for
the temporal discretization, leading to a sequence of one-dimensional elliptic equations
at each time step while preserving the same order of accuracy as the usual pressure-stabilization
schemes. We prove that these schemes are unconditionally stable, and
present numerical results which demonstrate the stability, accuracy, and efficiency of
the proposed methods.</p>
