Abstract

:
In this paper, a numerical approach employing radial basis functions has been applied to solve time-fractional FitzHugh–Nagumo equation. Spatial approximation is achieved by combining radial basis functions with the collocation method, while temporal discretization is accomplished using a finite difference scheme. To evaluate the effectiveness of this method, we first conduct an eigenvalue stability analysis and then validate the results with numerical examples, varying the shape parameter c of the radial basis functions. Notably, this method offers the advantage of being mesh-free, which reduces computational overhead and eliminates the need for complex mesh generation processes. To assess the method’s performance, we subject it to examples. The simulated results demonstrate a high level of agreement with exact solutions and previous research. The accuracy and efficiency of this method are evaluated using discrete error norms, including L 2 L , and L r m s .

1. Introduction

In recent years, the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation has garnered significant attention among physicists and mathematicians due to its critical role in mathematical physics. This equation finds applications in diverse fields, such as flame propagation, logistic population growth, neurophysiology, branching Brownian motion processes, autocatalytic chemical reactions, and nuclear reactor theory [1]. The FitzHugh–Nagumo equation is a nonlinear reaction–diffusion equation given by
u t = u xx + u ( u β ) ( 1 u ) , t > 0 , x Ω .
In the context of modeling nerve-impulse propagation [2,3], u represents the electrical potential transmission across the cell membrane. This equation elegantly combines diffusion and nonlinearity, with the behavior governed by the term u ( u β ) ( 1 u ) .
Many researchers have extensively investigated FitzHugh–Nagumo Equation (1). Notably, Shih et al. [4] explored this equation, revealing its applications in the domains of population dynamics and circuit theory. Kawahara and Tanaka [5] obtained solutions for the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation through the Hirota method. Nucci and Clarkson [6] derived solutions employing Jacobi elliptic functions. Li and Guo [7] conducted an examination and discovered a novel series of exact solutions using the first integral technique. Furthermore, Abbasbandy [8] determined soliton solutions through the homotopy analysis scheme. The FitzHugh–Nagumo equation attracted the attention of Kakiuchi and Tchizawa [9], who obtained an explicit duck solution and delay. Schonbek [10] delved into FitzHugh–Nagumo equation in the context of boundary value problems. Yanagida [11] studied the equation’s stability concerning traveling front solutions. Jackson [12] explored semidiscrete estimates for the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation. Additionally, Gao and Wang [13] discussed the existence of wavefronts and impulses in FitzHugh–Nagumo models. Employing the pseudo-spectral technique, Olmos and Shizgal [14] examined the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation. Dehghan et al. [15] investigated the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation using semianalytical techniques. The trajectory of arbitrary (real or complex) ordered derivatives exhibits nonlocal behavior when interpreted as fractional derivatives with memory indices [16,17]. This finding implies that when modeling real-world problems using fractional-order derivatives and integrals, there is a memory effect. In other words, the future state of a system not solely is determined by its current state but also takes into account its past states [18,19]. Consequently, FitzHugh–Nagumo Equation (1), which deals with arbitrary-order derivatives, can be seen as an extension of the traditional FitzHugh–Nagumo Equation (1).
Numerous authors have highlighted the practicality and significance of fractional-order derivatives and integrals in mathematical modeling within various scientific and engineering domains [20,21,22,23]. Given the ongoing research in this field and its importance in scientific applications, we now consider the fractional extension of Equation (1). The fractional version of the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation is derived from the well-known equation by replacing the first-order time derivative with an arbitrary-order derivative in the Caputo sense. This fractional model of FitzHugh–Nagumo Equation (1) can be expressed as follows:
u t α = u xx + u ( u β ) ( 1 u ) , t > 0 , x Ω ,
with initial conditions (ICs) and boundary conditions (BCs)
u ( 0 , x ) = u 0 ( x ) , x Ω , u ( t , a ) = u 1 ( t ) , and u ( t , b ) = u 2 ( t ) , x Ω , t > 0 ,
where u is a function of both t and x, i.e.,  u = u ( t , x ) ; β is an arbitrary constant; Ω represents the domain; and Ω denotes the boundary of the domain. The time domain is defined as t [ 0 , t m a x ] , where t m a x is a finite real number representing the final time. The functions u 0 ( x ) u 1 ( t ) , and u 2 ( t ) are known continuous functions. From Equation (2), it is important to observe that
  • When β = 1 , then Equation (2) converts into the well-known Newell–Whitehead equation
    u t α = u xx + u ( u + 1 ) ( 1 u ) , t > 0 , x Ω .
  • When β = 1 , then Equation (2) converts into the nonlinear FitzHugh–Nagumo equation
    u t α = u xx + u ( u 1 ) ( 1 u ) , t > 0 , x Ω .
  • When β = 0 , then Equation (2) converts into Fisher’s equation
    u t α = u xx + u 2 ( 1 u ) , t > 0 , x Ω .
Recent scientific research has involved a comprehensive exploration of the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation, employing a variety of analytical, numerical, and semianalytical methods to obtain both exact and approximate solutions. For instance, Kumar et al. [24] conducted a numerical investigation of the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation, utilizing a combination of the q-homotopy analysis approach and the Laplace transform method. Patel and Patel [25] examined the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation by applying the fractional reduced differential transform method (FRDTM). Abdel-Aty et al. [26] studied the time-fractional FitzHugh–Nagumo equation, both computationally and numerically, employing the improved Riccati expansion method and the B-spline method with a focus on the Atangana–Baleanu derivative. Additionally, Prakash and Kaur [27] explored the fractional model of the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation, which is relevant to the transmission of nerve impulses. They developed a reliable and computationally effective numerical scheme that combines the homotopy perturbation method with the Laplace transform approach. Lastly, Deniz [28] investigated the modified fractional version of the FitzHugh–Nagumo equation using the optimal perturbation iteration method.
Over the past decade, mesh-free methods using radial basis functions (RBFs) have gained significant prominence. This surge in interest is attributed to the challenges associated with classical numerical methods, such as the finite difference method, finite element method, and finite volume method, especially when dealing with two- or three-dimensional problems that require mesh generation. In 1990, Kansa introduced a technique for solving PDEs through the collocation method employing RBFs [29]. This approach involves approximating the solution using RBFs, and the collocation method is used to compute the unknown coefficients. The RBFs commonly used in the literature for solving PDEs include Hardy’s multiquadric (MQ), Duchon’s thin plate splines (TPSs), Gaussians (GS), inverse multiquadric (IMQ), and inverse quadric (IQ). The existence, uniqueness, and convergence of the RBF-based technique have been discussed by Franke and Schaback [30], Madych and Nelson [31], and Micchelli [32]. Kansa presented the initial concept of using RBFs to solve PDEs, and Golberg et al. [33] later refined it. In the context of solving PDEs, these RBFs have a shape parameter that can be adjusted to produce the best accurate results.
One of the main challenges associated with the RBF collocation method, as reported in the literature, is the dense and ill-conditioned nature of the system matrix that arises during the collocation process. This ill conditioning typically arises from a large number of nodes or an inappropriate choice of the shape parameter. However, various remedies for this issue have been proposed, including the contour-Padé algorithm, RBF-QR algorithm, extended precision arithmetic, and Hilbert–Schmidt decomposition, among others [34,35,36].
The main objective of this study is to compute a numerical solution for FitzHugh–Nagumo Equations (2) and (3) using the RBF collocation method. The structure of the paper is as follows: The methodology and stability analysis for Equations (2) and (3) are described in Section 2. Section 3 presents a number of examples and related discussions in order to validate the suggested methodology. Finally, in Section 4, a brief conclusion summarizes the study’s important findings and contributions.

2. Methodology

The suggested meshless technique for solving FitzHugh–Nagumo Equations (2) and (3) will be discussed in this part along with its methodology. We present the notation to streamline our conversation: u n = u ( t n , x ) , where t n = n δ t | n = 0 M . Here,  δ t = t m a x / M represents the time-step size, and h = 1 / N is the space-step size, where N and M are the number of points in the intervals [ a , b ] and [ 0 , t max ] , respectively.
The time-fractional derivative in Equation (2) uses the Caputo fractional partial derivative of order α ( 0 , 1 ) , defined as [16]
α u t α = 1 Γ ( 1 α ) 0 t u s t s α d s .

2.1. Time-Fractional Derivative Approximation

In Equation (2), the temporal part is discretized using the method described in [37] as follows:
α u n + 1 t α = δ t α Γ ( 2 α ) k = 0 n u n + 1 k u n k ( k + 1 ) 1 α ( k ) 1 α + O ( δ t 2 α ) = α * u n + 1 u n + B n + O ( δ t 2 α ) ,
where
B n = α * k = 1 n α * * ( k ) u n + 1 k u n k
and
α * = ( δ t ) α Γ ( 2 α ) , α * * ( k ) = ( k + 1 ) 1 α ( k ) 1 α .
It is important to observe that B n = 0 whenever n = 0 . With this consideration, the discretization formula can be expressed as follows:
α u n + 1 t α = α * u n + 1 u n + B n + O ( δ t 2 α ) , α ( 0 , 1 ) , u n + 1 u n δ t + O ( δ t ) , α = 1 .

2.2. The θ -Weighted Scheme

Utilizing Equation (7) in conjunction with the θ -weighted scheme and neglecting the error term, we can express Equation (2) in their time-discretized form as follows:
α * u n + 1 θ u xx n + 1 u n + 1 3 + ( 1 + β ) u n + 1 2 β u n + 1 = α * u n ( θ 1 ) u xx n u n 3 + ( 1 + β ) u n 2 β u n B n .
The nonlinear terms in Equation (8) can be linearized using the following approach:
u n + 1 3 = 3 u n 2 u n + 1 2 u n 3 , u n + 1 2 = 2 u n u n + 1 u n 2 .
By substituting the values from Equation (9) into Equation (8), the following expressions can be obtained after simplification:
ν 1 n u n + 1 θ u xx n + 1 = ν 2 n u n + ( 1 θ ) u xx n B n ,
where
ν 1 n = α * + θ β 2 ( 1 + β ) u n + 3 u n 2 and ν 2 n = α * + β ( θ 1 ) + ( 3 θ 1 ) u n 2 + 1 + β 2 θ ( 1 + β ) u n .

2.3. Radial Basis Function Approximation Scheme

Now, we move on to approximating the spatial component using RBFs and the collocation method. To do this, the collocation points are taken as { x i } i = 1 N . Consequently, we can represent the solution at interior points by employing RBFs denoted as ϕ i j = ϕ ( x i x j ) in the following manner:
u n + 1 = j = 1 N λ j n + 1 ϕ i j = Φ n + 1 , i = 2 , , N 1 ,
where n + 1 = [ λ 1 n + 1 , , λ N n + 1 ] T represents a vector of unknown coefficients at the ( n + 1 ) t h time level. Φ = [ ϕ i j ] 1 i , j N is the matrix of RBFs, and · denotes the Euclidean norm. The boundary conditions (3) are approximated as follows:
j = 1 N λ j n + 1 ϕ 1 j = u 1 n + 1 and j = 1 N λ j n + 1 ϕ N j = u 2 n + 1 .
Furthermore, the spatial derivative at the interior points x Ω are given as follows:
u xx n + 1 = Φ xx n + 1 .
By substituting Equations (11)–(13) into Equation (10) and performing simplifications, we arrive at the following equation:
A n + 1 = B n + Z n + 1 ,
where
A = ν 1 n Φ i j θ Φ xx i j , x i Ω , Φ i j , x i Ω , B = ν 2 n Φ i j + ( 1 θ ) Φ xx i j , x i Ω , 0 , x i Ω , Z = B n , x i Ω , C n + 1 , x i Ω ,
where C n + 1 = [ u 1 n + 1 , 0 , , 0 , u 2 n + 1 ] T . Now Equation (14) implies that
n + 1 = A 1 B n + A 1 Z n + 1 .
From Equations (11) and (15), it follows that
u n + 1 = Φ A 1 B Φ 1 u n + Φ A 1 Z n + 1 .
The numerical solution at any given time level n using scheme (16) can be obtained. We initialize the initial value u 0 by incorporating the initial condition u ( 0 , x ) = u 0 ( x ) . In the subsequent section, stability analysis of scheme (16) will be discussed.

2.4. Stability

To examine stability, we employ an approach outlined in [38]. For the error vector E defined as
E = u e x a c t u a p p r o x ,
the relation in (16) can be expressed as
E n + 1 = E n ,
where = Φ A 1 B Φ 1 represents the amplification matrix. According to the Lax–Richtmyer criterion of stability, the present method can be considered stable if
1 .
It is important to note that the inequality
ρ ( )
always holds, where ρ ( ) represents the spectral radius of the matrix .

3. Computational Results and Discussion

In this section, the implementation of the method for solving FitzHugh–Nagumo Equations (2) and (3) has been presented. Computer simulations have been carried out via MATLAB R2020a on a PC with the following configuration: processor: Intel (R) Core (TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60 GHz 3.60 GHz, RAM 8.00 GB, and system type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor. The accuracy and efficiency of the method are assessed using the following error norms:
L 2 = h i = 1 N u e x a c t u a p p r o x 2 1 / 2 , L = max i u e x a c t u a p p r o x , L r m s = 1 N i = 1 N u e x a c t u a p p r o x 2 1 / 2 , Absolute error = u e x a c t u a p p r o x .
For the solution of FitzHugh–Nagumo Equations (2) and (3), the following RBFs have been used:
  • M Q : ϕ i j = r i j 2 + c 2 ;
  • I M Q : ϕ i j = r i j 2 + c 2 1 / 2 ;
  • I Q : ϕ i j = r i j 2 + c 2 1 ;
  • G S : ϕ i j = exp ( c 2 r i j 2 ) ,
where c > 0 represents the shape parameter and r i j = | x i x j | 1 i , j N .

Selection of Shape Parameter

Determining the optimal value for the shape parameter c can be a challenging task. The random selection of c can be a limitation since many researchers choose c using suboptimal criteria. Therefore, in this study, we employ the extended Rippa algorithm to select the optimal shape parameter. Rippa’s algorithm, as described by Rippa [39], estimates the cost function based on the norm of the error vector, which can be either the L 2 or L norm. The parameter c that minimizes this cost function is deemed satisfactory, as it results in an approximation quality comparable to that achieved with the optimal c. We also provide plots illustrating the best-suited values of c obtained using this algorithm.
Example 1. 
Let us consider FitzHugh–Nagumo Equations (2) and (3) with β = 1 . The exact solution is given by [25]
u ( t , x ) = 1 2 + 1 2 tanh 2 x t 4 .
The ICs and BCs are derived from the exact solution within the domain x [ 0 , 1 ] . The approximate solution is obtained using various RBFs, such as MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS, with parameters N = 10 and δ t = 0.1 for different values of α (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1). The present method is examined, and the results are recorded in Table 1 and Table 2 for various nodal points ( x i , t n ) . The results are then compared with FRDTM. The comparison reveals that the present method produces good accuracy, specially for fractional order with the best results obtained using GS, MQ, IMQ, and IQ. Additionally, error norms at various time levels using the mentioned RBFs are dispatched in Table 3 and Table 4.
Furthermore, stability and error norm plots are displayed in Figure 1 for MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS RBFs against the shape parameter. These plots clearly demonstrate that the present method fully satisfies the Lax–Richtmyer stability criterion. Surface plots in Figure 2 illustrate that the computed solutions using these RBFs closely match the exact solution. Absolute errors at various time levels for α = 1 are shown in Figure 3, indicating reasonable accuracy. A comparison between the exact and computed solutions at the final time level is presented in Figure 4, confirming the high accuracy of the present method. Finally, in Figure 5, Figure 6, Figure 7 and Figure 8, absolute errors for different values of α’s at various time levels are shown using MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS, respectively.
Example 2. 
Let us consider FitzHugh–Nagumo Equations (2) and (3) with β = 1 . The exact solution is given by [25]
u ( t , x ) = 1 2 + 1 2 tanh 2 x + 3 t 4 .
The ICs and BCs are derived from the exact solution. The approximate solution is computed using various RBFs such as MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS with parameters N = 10 δ t = 0.1 θ = 0.5 , and α = 0.25 ,   0.5 ,   0.75 ,   1 . The present method is evaluated, and the results are recorded in Table 5 and Table 6 at various node points. These results are then compared with FRDTM. It can be seen that the computed solutions are more accurate than the cited method. All the RBFs exhibit good accuracy even for a small value of α.
Furthermore, for x [ 0 , 1 ] , error norms at various time levels are recorded in Table 7 and Table 8 using MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS RBFs with parameters N = 10 δ t = 0.1 , and θ = 0.5 and for different values of α (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1). Stability and error norm plots are displayed for MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS RBFs against the shape parameter in Figure 9, which clearly show that the present method fully satisfies the Lax–Richtmyer stability criterion. Surface plots are presented in Figure 10, illustrating that the computed solutions using these RBFs closely match the exact solution. Absolute errors for α = 1 at various time levels are shown in Figure 11, indicating reasonable accuracy. Additionally, in Figure 12, a comparison between the exact and computed solutions at the final time is displayed, demonstrating the good accuracy of the present method. Finally, Figure 13, Figure 14, Figure 15 and Figure 16 present the absolute errors for different RBFs when considering fractional order, highlighting their performance.
Example 3. 
Let us consider FitzHugh–Nagumo Equations (2) and (3) with β = 0 . The exact solution is given by [25]
u ( t , x ) = 1 2 + 1 2 tanh 2 x + t 4 .
We employ the ICs and BCs from this exact solution. Using this solution, we apply the present method to approximate the exact solution within the domain x [ 0 , 1 ] . RBFs such as MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS are employed for the numerical approximation. We choose N = 10 δ t = 0.1 , and θ = 0.5 . The obtained results are presented in Table 9 and Table 10 for different values of α ( 0.25 , 0.5 , 0.75 , 1 ).
The tables clearly indicate that the accuracy of the method is better than the FRDTM. Additionally, it can be seen that the accuracy improves as α approaches 1. Additionally, the chosen RBFs demonstrate comparable performance. Furthermore, the error norms at various time levels are recorded in Table 11 and Table 12 for α values of  0.25 0.5 0.75 , and 1, using the MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS RBFs. The stability and error norm plots are presented in Figure 17, demonstrating that the present method consistently satisfies the Lax–Richtmyer stability criterion.
Additionally, surface plots in Figure 18 show that the computed solution using the selected RBFs closely matches the exact solution. The absolute errors for α = 1 at various time levels are depicted in Figure 19, indicating reasonable accuracy. Figure 20 compares the exact and computed solutions at the final time, demonstrating the good accuracy of the present method. Finally, Figure 21, Figure 22, Figure 23 and Figure 24 display the absolute errors for different fractional orders using different RBFs.
Example 4. 
Let us consider FitzHugh–Nagumo Equations (2) and (3). For α = 1 , the exact solution, as given in [27], is described by the following expression:
u ( t , x ) = 1 1 + e x 2 + y t , w h e r e y = 1 2 2 β ,
where β represents an arbitrary constant. We employ the ICs and BCs from this exact solution. Using this solution, we apply the present method to approximate the exact solution within the domain x [ 0 , 1 ] . RBFs such as MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS are employed for the numerical approximation. We choose N = 10 δ t = 0.001 θ = 0.5 , and β = 1 . The obtained results, in terms of absolute errors, are presented in Table 13 for α = 1 . The table clearly indicates that the accuracy of the present method is better than that of the homotopy perturbation transform technique (HPTT). Additionally, the comparison of the present method with HPTT is presented in Table 14 for β = 0.45 and α = 0.5 while keeping the other parameters the same. The comparison shows that the results of the present method using different RBFs are more accurate than those of HPTT. Furthermore, the error norms at various time levels are recorded in Table 15 and Table 16 for α values of 0.5 and 1 using the MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS RBFs.
The stability and error norm plots are presented in Figure 25 and Figure 26 for α = 1 and 0.5 and β = 1 and β = 0.45 , respectively, for N = 10 θ = 0.5 , and δ t = 0.001 , demonstrating that the present method consistently satisfies the Lax–Richtmyer stability criterion. Additionally, the surface plots in Figure 27 and Figure 28 show that the computed solution using the selected RBFs closely matches the exact solution. The absolute errors for α = 1 and 0.5 at various time levels are depicted in Figure 29 and Figure 30, respectively, indicating reasonable accuracy. Finally, Figure 31 and Figure 32 compare the exact and computed solutions at the final time, demonstrating the good accuracy of the present method.

4. Conclusions

The RBF collocation method has been employed to numerically solve a range of FitzHugh–Nagumo Equations (2) and (3). The computed solutions exhibit excellent agreement with exact solutions across various parameter values. The accuracy of this method was rigorously assessed using different error norms. The results unequivocally establish that the proposed approach is highly effective in handling fractional PDE. Furthermore, the stability of the proposed algorithm was demonstrated through eigenvalue analysis, particularly focusing on the MQ, IMQ, IQ, and GS RBFs’ shape parameter, denoted as c. From a computational standpoint, it is evident that the present method offers significant efficiency benefits, as it requires a minimal number of nodes and allows for fine-tuning of the RBF shape parameter to achieve satisfactory accuracy. Building on these achievements, several promising avenues for future research emerge.
  • Investigate the use of locally supported RBFs to enhance adaptability to intricate spatial structures, improving accuracy in localized phenomena.
  • Extend the methodology to incorporate time–space fractional derivatives, deepening understanding and expanding applicability to a broader range of real-world problems.
  • The present study focuses on one-dimensional scenarios, and broadening its scope to handle multidimensional systems would significantly enhance its utility in practical applications.
  • Exploring parallelization methods tailored for distributed memory systems would augment the adaptability and practical relevance of the presented techniques. Addressing these aspects not only demonstrates the methods’ capacity to handle resource-intensive challenges but also enriches our understanding of their real-world applicability.
