Numerical treatment of the strongly coupled nonlinear fractal-fractional Schrodinger equations through the shifted Chebyshev cardinal functions

In this paper, a new version of the strongly coupled nonlinear fractal-fractional Schr & ouml;-dinger equations is introduced by using the fractal-fractional derivatives in the Riemann-Liouville sense with Mittag-Leffler kernel. An accurate operational matrix method based on the shifted Chebyshev cardinal functions is established for solving this new class of problems. Along the way, a new operational matrix of fractal-fractional derivative is derived for these basis func-tions. The main characteristic of the proposed method is that it transforms solving the original problem to an algebraic system of equations by exploiting the operational matrix techniques.
