New Exact Solutions of Fractional Fitzhugh-Nagumo Equation
Abstract
The main aim of this article is obtaining the travelling wave, solitary wave and periodic wave solutions for time fractional Fitzhugh-Nagumo equation which used as a model for reaction–diffusion, transmission of nerve impulses, circuit theory, biology and population genetics. The new extended direct algebraic method is employed for this aim. The fractional derivative is in conformable sense which is an applicable, well behaved and understandable definition.
