Homotopy perturbation method for fractional-order Burgers-Poisson equation

Abstract

In this paper, the fractional-order Burgers-Poisson equation is introduced by replacing the first-order time derivative by fractional derivative of order $\alpha$. Both exact and approximate explicit solutions are obtained by employing homotopy perturbation method. The numerical results reveal that the proposed method is very effective and simple for handling fractional-order differential equations.
