Abstract
This study modifies the time-fractional Fisher equation by adding a source term and generalizing the non-linear power to an arbitrary order. A numerical technique is proposed for the modified time-fractional Fisher equation using Legendre wavelets and the quasilinearization technique. The non-linear term is iteratively linearized using the quasilinearization technique. The convergence analysis and error estimates of the proposed method are studied. Several test problems are solved using the proposed technique, and numerical outcomes are contrasted with those obtained using some other approaches existing in the literature.
