| Summary: | This work introduces the Legendre cardinal functions for the first time. Based on Jacobi and Lobatto grids, two approaches are employed to determine these basis functions. These functions are then utilized within the pseudospectral method to solve the fractional Klein–Gordon equation (FKGE). Two numerical schemes based on the pseudospectral method are considered. The first scheme reformulates the given equation into a corresponding integral equation and solves it. The second scheme directly addresses the problem by utilizing the matrix representation of the Caputo fractional derivative operator. We provide a convergence analysis and present numerical experiments to demonstrate the convergence of the schemes. The convergence analysis shows that convergence depends on the smoothness of the unknown function. Notable features of the proposed approaches include a reduction in computations due to the cardinality property of the basis functions, matrices representing fractional derivative and integral operators, and the ease of implementation. |
