Abstract
In this paper, a two-dimensional fractional FitzHugh-Nagumo monodomain model (2D-FFHNMM) with zero Dirichlet boundary condition is considered. The model consists of a coupled two-dimensional space fractional nonlinear reaction-diffusion model (2D-SFNRDM) and an ordinary differential equation. The 2D-SFNRDM and ordinary differential equation are decoupled at each time step. A new Crank-Nicolson alternating direction implicit (ADI) Galerkin finite element method for the 2D-SFNRDM is developed. The stability and convergence of the numerical method are discussed. Finally, some numerical examples on 2D-SFNRDM and 2D-FFHNMM are given for verification of our theoretical analysis.
