The application of orthogonal fractional polynomials on fractional integral equations

We present a spectral method that converges exponentially for a variety of fractional integral equations on a closed interval. The method uses an orthogonal fractional polynomial basis that is obtained from an appropriate change of variable in classical Jacobi polynomials. For a problem arising from time-fractional heat and wave equations, we elaborate the complexities of three spectral methods, among which our method is the most performant due to its superior stability. We present algorithms for building the fractional integral operators, which are applied to the orthogonal fractional polynomial basis as matrices.
