Quasi-Interpolant Operators and the Solution of Fractional Differential Problems

Nowadays, fractional differential equations are a well established tool to model phenomena from the real world. Since the analytical solution is rarely available, there is a great effort in constructing efficient numerical methods for their solution. In this paper we are interested in solving boundary value problems having space derivative of fractional order. To this end, we present a collocation method in which the solution of the fractional problem is approximated by a spline quasi-interpolant operator. This allows us to construct the numerical solution in an easy way. We show through some numerical tests that the proposed method is efficient and accurate.

A Collocation Method in Spline Spaces for the Solution of Linear Fractional Dynamical Systems

We used a collocation method in refinable spline space to solve a linear dynamical system having fractional derivative in time. The method takes advantage of an explicit derivation rule for the B-spline basis that allows us to efficiently evaluate the collocation matrices appearing in the method. We proof the convergence of the method. Some numerical results are shown.

A fractional spline collocation-Galerkin method for the time-fractional diffusion equation

The aim of this paper is to numerically solve a diffusion differential problem having time derivative of fractional order. To this end we propose a collocation-Galerkin method that uses the fractional splines as approximating functions. The main advantage is in that the derivatives of integer and fractional order of the fractional splines can be expressed in a closed form that involves just the generalized finite difference operator. This allows us to construct an accurate and efficient numerical method. Several numerical tests showing the effectiveness of the proposed method are presented.
