Study of time-fractional delayed differential equations via new integral transform-based variation iteration technique

Abstract

Abstract The present article proposes a new-integral transform-based variational iteration technique (NTVIT) to study the behavior of higher-order nonlinear time-fractional delayed differential equations. The NTVIT is a hybrid technique that is developed via the concept of variational theory with the use of the properties of a new integral transform. The stability and convergence of NTVIT are analyzed via Banach’s fixed point theory. The effectiveness and validity of NTVIT solutions are demonstrated via the evaluation of error norms: relative/absolute errors for some test suitable delayed problems of different fractional order. The numerical experiments confirms that NTVIT is capable of producing highly accurate behaviors as compared to some existing techniques.
