Numerical solution and distinguishability in time fractional parabolic equation
Abstract
This article deals with the mathematical analysis of the inverse problem of identifying the distinguishability of input-output mappings in the linear time fractional inhomogeneous parabolic equation D(t)(alpha)u(x t) = (k(x)u(x))(x) + r(t)F(x t) 0 < alpha = 1 with mixed boundary conditions u(0 t) = psi(0)(t) u(x)(1 t) = psi(1)(t). By defining the input-output mappings Phi[center dot] : kappa -> C-1[0 T] and psi[center dot] : kappa -> C[0 T] the inverse problem is reduced to the problem of their invertibility. Hence the main purpose of this study is to investigate the distinguishability of the input-output mappings Phi[center dot] and psi[center dot]. Moreover the measured output data f (t) and h(t) can be determined analytically by a series representation which implies that the input-output mappings Phi[center dot] : kappa -> C-1[0 T] and psi[center dot] : kappa -> C[0 T] can be described explicitly where Phi[r] = k(x)u(x)(x t r)vertical bar(x= 0) and psi[r] = u(x t r)vertical bar(x= 1). Also numerical tests using finite difference scheme combined with an iterative method are presented.
