Orthonormal Ultraspherical Operational Matrix Algorithm for Fractal–Fractional Riccati Equation with Generalized Caputo Derivative
Y. H. Youssri
Abstract
Herein, we developed and analyzed a new fractal–fractional (FF) operational matrix for orthonormal normalized ultraspherical polynomials. We used this matrix to handle the FF Riccati differential equation with the new generalized Caputo FF derivative. Based on the developed operational matrix and the spectral Tau method, the nonlinear differential problem was reduced to a system of algebraic equations in the unknown expansion coefficients. Accordingly, the resulting system was solved by Newton’s solver with a small initial guess. The efficiency, accuracy, and applicability of the developed numerical method were checked by exhibiting various test problems. The obtained results were also compared with other recent methods, based on the available literature.
