AbstractIn this paper, some initial-boundary-value problems for the time-fractional diffusion equation are first considered in open bounded n-dimensional domains. In particular, the maximum principle well-known for the PDEs of elliptic and parabolic types is extended for the time-fractional diffusion equation. In its turn, the maximum principle is used to show the uniqueness of solution to the initial-boundary-value problems for the time-fractional diffusion equation. The generalized solution in the sense of Vladimirov is then constructed in form of a Fourier series with respect to the eigenfunctions of a certain Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem. For the onedimensional time-fractional diffusion equation $$(D_t^\alpha u)(t) = \frac{\partial } {{\partial x}}\left( {p(x)\frac{{\partial u}} {{\partial x}}} \right) - q(x)u + F(x,t), x \in (0,l), t \in (0,T)$$ the generalized solution to the initial-boundary-value problem with Dirichlet boundary conditions is shown to be a solution in the classical sense. Properties of this solution are investigated including its smoothness and asymptotics for some special cases of the source function.

In this paper we examine the evolution that occurs when a localized input of an autocatalyst B is introduced into an expanse of a reactant A. The reaction is autocatalytic of order p,so A -> B at rate k [A] [B] p with rate constant k . We examine the case when 0 < p < 1, with p>/ 1 having been examined by Needham & Merkin (Phil. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. A 337, 261—274 (1991)). In particular, we show that the fully reacted state is not achieved (as t-> oo) via the propagation of a travelling wavefront (as for p>/ 1) but is approached uniformly in space as t-00.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to introduce variational iteration method (VIM) to construct equivalent integral equations for initial-boundary value problems of nonlinear partial differential equations. The Lagrange multipliers become the integral kernels. Design/methodology/approach – Using the discrete numerical integral formula, the general way is given to solve the famous reaction-diffusion equation numerically. Findings – With the given explicit solution, the results show the conveniences of the general numerical schemes and numerical simulation of the reaction-diffusion is finally presented in the cases of various coefficients. Originality/value – The method avoids the treatment of the time derivative as that in the classical finite difference method and the VIM is introduced to construct equivalent integral equations for initial-boundary value problems of nonlinear partial differential equations.
