Abstract. In this paper, the technique of the interval division based on the
shifted Müntz-Legendre polynomials is used to present an
approximate solution for the fractional differential equations.
The first step of proposed method is to divide the interval which
is considered for the solution into several subintervals with a
specific step size. We obtain an approximate solution of the
problem on each of subintervals using the collocation method and
the shifted Müntz-Legendre polynomials. The use of the shifted
Müntz- Legendre polynomials and the technique of the interval
division simultaneously lead to more accuracy. The accuracy and
convergence of the method are demonstrated with several numerical
examples.
