Fourier truncation method for an inverse source problem for space-time fractional diffusion equation

Nguyen Huy Tuan, Le Dinh Long

Abstract:
In this article, we study an inverse problem to determine an unknown source term in a space time fractional diffusion equation, whereby the data are obtained at a certain time. In general, this problem is ill-posed in the sense of Hadamard, so the Fourier truncation method is proposed to solve the problem. In the theoretical results, we propose a priori and a posteriori parameter choice rules and analyze them.
