Galerkin finite element approximation of symmetric space-fractional partial differential equations (Q606815): Difference between revisions

The paper deals with the numerical approximation of space-fractional PDE with Riesz fractional derivatives by the Galerkin FEM. The well-posedness of its weak solution and the corresponding fully discrete scheme are proved. A detailed stability and convergence analysis of the implicit Galerkin finite element fully discrete system is carried out. Three numerical examples are given.
