Fourier regularization for a final value time-fractional diffusion problem

摘要

The evolution process of fractional order describes some phenomenon of anomalous diffusion and transport dynamics in complex system. The equation containing time-fractional derivative provides a suitable mathematical model for describing such a process. The backward problem for this system, which means to recover the initial state for some slow diffusion process from its present status, is very hard to solve due to the nonlocal property of fractional derivative and the irreversibility of time. For this ill-posed problem, we construct a regularizing solution using the Fourier transform method. Both the a-priori choice strategy and the a-posteriori choice strategy for the regularizing parameter are given, with the convergence analysis on the regularizing solution. Numerical implementations are presented to show the validity of the proposed scheme.
