Solving inverse non-linear fractional differential equations by generalized Chelyshkov wavelets

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to employ a method involving Chelyshkov wavelets to construct a numerical solution to the inverse problem of determining the right-hand side function of a non-linear fractional differential equation by utilizing over-measured data. The novelty of this research is that this type of inverse problem is studied by Chelyshkov wavelets. Firstly, the problem is reduced into a system of algebraic equations with an unknown right-hand side by means of the orthonormal base of Chelyshkov wavelets. Secondly, by choosing suitable nodes, this system is transformed into a homogenous system of algebraic equations. The solution of the homogenous system allows us to determine the coefficients of the bases vectors for the solution of the non-linear fractional differential equation. In the final step, the right-hand side is obtained by substituting the constructed solution into a non-linear fractional differential equation. The presented examples illustrate that the numerical solution, obtained by this method, is remarkably close to the exact solution.
