Abstract
This paper investigates a three-species reaction-diffusion model with fractional-order derivatives and proposes an innovative numerical method for its simulation. The method integrates an optimized Grünwald-Letnikov discretization scheme, enhanced by a short-memory principle, with a high-order accurate nine-point compact difference scheme, enabling an efficient and stable solution of fractional operators. Rigorous convergence and stability analyses confirm the theoretical reliability of the algorithm. Through stability and Turing bifurcation analyses, the study systematically reveals the regulatory mechanism of the fractional-order exponent on the dynamic behavior of the system. The numerical results demonstrate that the present method accurately captures the effect of fractional derivatives on the formation process of spatial patterns.Keywords
