A numerical approximation for the solution of a time-fractional telegraph equation based on the Crank-Nicolson method

In this paper, a two-dimensional time-fractional telegraph equation is considered with derivative in the sense of Caputo and ۱<\beta<۲. The aim of this work is to extend the Crank--Nicolson method for this time-fractional telegraph equation. The stability and convergence of the numerical method are investigated. Also, the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method are demonstrated by numerical experiments.
