A Detailed Study on a New (2+1)-Dimensional Mkdv Equation Involving the Caputo-Fabrizio Time-Fractional Derivative

Abstract

The present article aims to present a comprehensive study on a nonlinear time-fractional model involving the Caputo-Fabrizio (CF) derivative. More explicitly, a new (2+1)-dimensional mKdV (2D-mKdV) equation involving the Caputo-Fabrizio time-fractional derivative is considered and an analytic approximation for it is retrieved through a systematic technique, called the homotopy analysis transform (HAT) method. Furthermore, after proving the Lipschitz condition for the kernel psi (x,y,t;u), the fixed-point theorem is formally utilized to demonstrate the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the new 2D-mKdV equation involving the CF time-fractional derivative. A detailed study finally is carried out to examine the effect of the Caputo-Fabrizio operator on the dynamics of the obtained analytic approximation.
