Abstract
This paper introduces a novel numerical algorithm for solving pantograph differential equations and Volterra functional integro-differential equations including the piecewise fractional derivative. The proposed algorithm combines the piecewise Gegenbauer functions, the Ritz method, and operational matrices. These functions have great flexibility to match the problems containing piecewise fractional derivatives. Due to the problems, we calculate the operational matrix of derivatives, the operational matrix of the piecewise fractional derivative, and the pantograph operational matrix. By employing the proposed numerical algorithm, we transform the problems into a system of algebraic equations. Moreover, we discuss the error estimation of the approximate solution and residual error. Finally, we provide details on the implementation of this technique through several numerical examples to demonstrate its applicability.
期刊介绍:
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences publishes papers dealing with new mathematical methods for the consideration of linear and non-linear, direct and inverse problems for physical relevant processes over time- and space- varying media under certain initial, boundary, transition conditions etc. Papers dealing with biomathematical content, population dynamics and network problems are most welcome.
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences is an interdisciplinary journal: therefore, all manuscripts must be written to be accessible to a broad scientific but mathematically advanced audience. All papers must contain carefully written introduction and conclusion sections, which should include a clear exposition of the underlying scientific problem, a summary of the mathematical results and the tools used in deriving the results. Furthermore, the scientific importance of the manuscript and its conclusions should be made clear. Papers dealing with numerical processes or which contain only the application of well established methods will not be accepted.
Because of the broad scope of the journal, authors should minimize the use of technical jargon from their subfield in order to increase the accessibility of their paper and appeal to a wider readership. If technical terms are necessary, authors should define them clearly so that the main ideas are understandable also to readers not working in the same subfield.
