Numerical algorithm for two-dimensional time-fractional wave equation of distributed-order with a nonlinear source term

Jiahui Hu, Jungang Wang, Zhanbin Yuan et al.

In this paper, an alternating direction implicit (ADI) difference scheme for two-dimensional time-fractional wave equation of distributed-order with a nonlinear source term is presented. The unique solvability of the difference solution is discussed, and the unconditional stability and convergence order of the numerical scheme are analysed. Finally, numerical experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the algorithm.

Maximum-norm error analysis of compact difference schemes for the backward fractional Feynman-Kac equation

Jiahui Hu, Jungang Wang, Zhanbin Yuan et al.

The fractional Feynman-Kac equations describe the distribution of functionals of non-Brownian motion, or anomalous diffusion, including two types called the forward and backward fractional Feynman-Kac equations, where the fractional substantial derivative is involved. This paper focuses on the more widely used backward version. Based on the discretized schemes for fractional substantial derivatives proposed recently, we construct compact finite difference schemes for the backward fractional Feynman-Kac equation, which has q-th (q=1, 2, 3, 4) order accuracy in temporal direction and fourth order accuracy in spatial direction, respectively. In the case q=1, the numerical stability and convergence of the difference scheme in the discrete L-infinity norm are proved strictly, where a new inner product is defined for the theoretical analysis. Finally, numerical examples are provided to verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the algorithms.
