We study the space-time fractional diffusion equation with spatial Riesz-Feller fractional derivative and Caputo fractional time derivative. The continuation of the solution of this fractional equation to the solution of the corresponding integer order equation is proved. The series solution of this problem is obtained via the optimal homotopy analysis method (OHAM). Numerical simulations are presented to validate the method and to show the effect of changing the fractional derivative parameters on the solution behavior.

We consider the solutions of a space–time fractional diffusion equation on the interval [-1, 1]. The equation is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the second-order space derivative by a Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative of order between one and two, and the first-order time derivative by a Caputo fractional derivative of order between zero and one. As the fundamental solution of this fractional equation is unknown (if exists), an eigenfunction approach is applied to obtain approximate fundamental solutions which are then used to solve the space–time fractional diffusion equation with initial and boundary values. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in long time simulations.

We prove wellposedness of a variable-order linear space-time fractional diffusion equation in multiple space dimensions. In addition we prove that the regularity of its solutions depends on the behavior of the variable order (and its derivatives) at time [Formula: see text], in addition to the usual smoothness assumptions. More precisely, we prove that its solutions have full regularity like its integer-order analogue if the variable order has an integer limit at [Formula: see text] or have certain singularity at [Formula: see text] like its constant-order fractional analogue if the variable order has a non-integer value at time [Formula: see text].
