1. Introduction

Nonlinear phenomena that appear in many areas of scientific fields such as solid state physics, plasma physics, fluid dynamics, mathematical biology and chemical kinetics are modeled in terms of nonlinear partial differen- tial equations and in many scientific and engineering applications one of the corner stones of modeling are partial differential equations. For example, the Klein-Gordon equation which is of the form

with initial conditions

(2)

appears in modeling of problems in quantum field theory, relavistic physics, dispersive wave phenomena, plasma physic, nonlinear optics and applied physical sciences. The complexity of the equations though requires the use of numerical and analytical methods in most cases. A broad class of analytical solution and numerical solution methods were used to handle these problems. The topic of fractional partial differential equations has attracted a great atteation in the recent years. There are several analytical have been presented in the literature to solve fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs), such as the Fourier transform method [1] , the fractional Greens function method [2] , the Mellin transform method and the Laplace transform method [3] [4] , the Su- mudu transform method [5] .

Recently, several numerical methods have been introduced for this purpose, such as: the homotopy pertur- bation method (HPM) has first proposed by He [6] - [8] , the Modified homotopy perturbation method (MHPM) [9] , the differential transform method (DTM) [10] , the variational iteration method (VIM) [11] [12] , the ho- motopy analysis method (HAM) [13] [14] , the Sumudu decomposition method [15] , the Adomian decomposi- tion method [16] [17] .

The homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is extended to drive the exact solutions for linear (nonlinear) ordinary (partial) differential equations of fractional order. The homotopy perturbation method is also combined with the vartional iteration method [18] , to produce ahighly effective technique for handling many nonlinear problems. An also the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is also combined with the laplace transform me- thod [19] . The advantage of this methods for obtaining exact and approximate solutions for nonlinear equa- tions.

The homotopy perturbation method (HPM) was also investigated by many researchers to handle partial differential equations arising in science and engineering [20] [21] . In addition, some numerical methods use a combination of utilizing specific transformation and obtaining series with converge to the exact solutions. An example of such a method is homotopy analysis Sumudu transform method (HASTD) which is a combination of the homotopy analysis method and the Sumudu transformation method [22] . Another such a combination is the which is the Sumudu decomposition method (SDM), which is constructed by combining two powerful methods, namely, the Sumudu transform method and Adomian decomposition method [23] . An efficent such approach is proposed combining the Sumudu transformation method with the homotopy perturbation method, which gives a new method called the homotopy perturbation Sumudu transform method (HPSTM) [24] . Recently, the ho- motopy perturbation Sumudu transform method (HPSTM) is frequently used for solving linear and nonlinear equations which are PDEs of integer order to obtain the exact solution.

In this paper, we applied homotopy perturbation Sumudu transform method (HPSTM) to obtain the analytical exact and approximate solutions for the fractional Klein-Gordon equation with time-fractional derivatives of the form:

(3)

where is parameters describing the order of the time fractional derivatives of, respectively, and they setisfy, is constants, and is the initial conditions and is is the source term and try to show the convergence of homotopy perturbation Sumudu transform method in solving this equation.

The paper is organized as follows: in Section 2, we recall some definitions of fractional calculus theory. In Section 3, we describe the homotopy perturbation Sumudu transform method. In Section 4, contains the main results and an examples to show the efficiency of using HPSTM to solve fractional-time Klein-Gordon equa- tions. Conclusions are given in Section 5.

2. Basic Definitions of Fractional Calculus

3. The Homotopy Perturbation Sumudu Transform Method (HPSTM)

To illustrate the basic idea of this method, we consider a general fractional partial differential equation with the initial condition of the form:

(11)

with, and subject to the initial condition

(12)

where is the Caputo fractional derivative of the function, is the source term, is the linear differential operator and is the general nonlinear differential operator.

Applying the Sumudu transform (denoted in this paper by) on both sides of Equation (11), we get

(13)

Using the differentiation property of the Sumudu transform and the initial conditions in Equation (12), we have

(14)

Operating with the Sumudu inverse on both sides of Equation (14) gives

(16)

and the nonlinear term can be decomposed as

Equating the terms with identical powers of, we can obtain a series of equations as the follows:

(20)

proceeding in the same manner, the rest of the components can be completely found and the series solution is thus entirely determined. We approximate the analytical solution by truncated series as:

5. Conclusion

In this paper, we have introduced a combination of the homotopy perturbation method and the Sumudu transform method for time fractional problems. This combination builds a strong method called the HPSTD. This method has been successfully applied to one-dimensional fractional equations and also for problems of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations. The HPSTD is an analytical method and runs by using the initial conditions only. Thus, it can be used to solve equations with fractional and integer order with respect to time. An important advantage of the new approach is its low computational load.
