A unified framework for the regularization of final value time-fractional diffusion equation
share
This paper focuses on the regularization of backward time-fractional diffusion problem on unbounded domain. This problem is well-known to be ill-posed, whence the need of a regularization method in order to recover stable approximate solution. For the problem under consideration, we present a unified framework of regularization which covers some techniques such as Fourier regularization [19], mollification [12] and approximate-inverse [7]. We investigate a regularization technique with two major advantages: the simplicity of computation of the regularized solution and the avoid of truncation of high frequency components (so as to avoid undesirable oscillation on the resulting approximate-solution). Under classical Sobolev-smoothness conditions, we derive order-optimal error estimates between the approximate solution and the exact solution in the case where both the data and the model are only approximately known. In addition, an order-optimal a-posteriori parameter choice rule based on the Morozov principle is given. Finally, via some numerical experiments in two-dimensional space, we illustrate the efficiency of our regularization approach and we numerically confirm the theoretical convergence rates established in the paper.
