Orthonormal shifted discrete Chebyshev polynomials: Application for a fractal-fractional version of the coupled Schrödinger-Boussinesq system

Abstract

In this paper, a novel fractal-fractional derivative operator with Mittag-Leffler function as its kernel is introduced. Using this differentiation, the fractal-fractional model of the coupled nonlinear Schrödinger-Boussinesq system is defined. The orthonormal shifted discrete Chebyshev polynomials are generated and used for constructing a computational matrix method to solve the defined system. In the established method, using the matrices of the ordinary and fractal-fractional differentiations of these polynomials, the fractal-fractional system transformed into a system of algebraic equations, which is solved readily. Practicability and precision of the method are examined by solving two numerical examples.
