This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

In this paper, we shall solve a time-fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equation by using the quintic non-polynomial spline and theL1 formula. The unconditional stability, unique solvability and convergence of our numerical scheme are proved by the Fourier method. It is shown that our method is sixth order accurate in the spatial dimension and (2-γ ) (2−γ) th order accurate in the temporal dimension, whereγis the fractional order. The efficiency of the proposed numerical scheme is further illustrated by numerical experiments, meanwhile the simulation results indicate better performance over previous work in the literature.
