An accurate numerical method for solving the linear fractional Klein-Gordon equation.

In this article, an implementation of an efficient numerical method for solving the linear fractional Klein-Gordon equation (LFKGE) is introduced. The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. The method is based upon a combination between the properties of the Chebyshev approximations and finite difference method (FDM). The proposed method reduces LFKGE to a system of ODEs, which is solved using FDM. Special attention is given to study the convergence analysis and deduce an error upper bound of the proposed method. Numerical example is given to show the validity and the accuracy of the proposed algorithm. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
