Abstract

This paper focuses on analyzing and implementing a numerical technique using the Petrov–Galerkin technique (PGT) to solve the time fractional cable problem (TFCP). The trial functions are a modified set of shifted Legendre polynomials (LPs). An appropriate numerical approach can be used to solve the linear algebraic equations resulting from the application of the PGT. With error bounds, we discuss the truncation estimation and stability in the L2 norm. We apply some inequalities on the modified set of shifted LPs to this research. Numerical experiments include benchmark issues for which exact solutions are presented to show how efficient and accurate the method is. Comparisons with different techniques in the literature are used to support our examples.
