Spectral algorithm for two-dimensional fractional sine-Gordon and Klein–Gordon models

Abstract

Solitons and waves with memory effects are two examples of nonlinear wave phenomena that can be studied mathematically using the fractional nonlinear sine-Gordon equation. It is a modification of the traditional sine-Gordon equation that takes memory effects and nonlocal interactions into account by adding fractional derivatives. A more complex explanation of particle dynamics and interactions within relativistic quantum mechanics is made possible by the fractional Klein–Gordon model, a theoretical framework that expands the standard equation to include fractional derivatives. The study uses shifted Legendre–Gauss–Lobatto and shifted Legendre–Gauss–Radau collocation techniques to solve numerically two-dimensional sine-Gordon and Klein–Gordon models. The study handles two-dimensional sine-Gordon and Klein–Gordon models by extending a collocation approach using basis functions. It suggests a collocation technique that uses a suggested basis to automatically satisfy the conditions. The suggested methods’ spectral accuracy and efficiency are validated by numerical results.
