Abstract

In this paper, we developed the compact finite differences method to find approximate solutions for the FitzHugh-Nagumo (F-N) equations. To the best of our knowledge, until now there is no compact finite difference solutions have been reported for the FitzHugh-Nagumo equation arising in gene propagation and model. We have given numerical example to demonstrate the validity and applicability.
