Shifted Fractional-Order Jacobi Collocation Method for Solving Variable-Order Fractional Integro-Differential Equation with Weakly Singular Kernel

We propose a fractional-order shifted Jacobi–Gauss collocation method for variable-order fractional integro-differential equations with weakly singular kernel (VO-FIDE-WSK) subject to initial conditions. Using the Riemann–Liouville fractional integral and derivative and fractional-order shifted Jacobi polynomials, the approximate solutions of VO-FIDE-WSK are derived by solving systems of algebraic equations. The superior accuracy of the method is illustrated through several numerical examples.
