AbstractIn this paper, a class of fractional diffusion equations with variable coefficients is considered. An accurate and efficient spectral tau technique for solving the fractional diffusion equations numerically is proposed. This method is based upon Chebyshev tau approximation together with Chebyshev operational matrix of Caputo fractional differentiation. Such approach has the advantage of reducing the problem to the solution of a system of algebraic equations, which may then be solved by any standard numerical technique. We apply this general method to solve four specific examples. In each of the examples considered, the numerical results show that the proposed method is of high accuracy and is efficient for solving the time-dependent fractional diffusion equations.

Adomian Decomposition

In this paper, we have considered the multi-dimensional space fractional diffusion equations with variable coefficients. The fractional operators (derivative/integral) are used based on the Caputo definition. This study provides an analytical approach to determine the analytical solution of the considered problems with the help of the two-step Adomian decomposition method (TSADM). Moreover, new results have been obtained for the existence and uniqueness of a solution by using the Banach contraction principle and a fixed point theorem. We have extended the dimension of the space fractional diffusion equations with variable coefficients into multi-dimensions. Finally, the generalized problems with two different types of the forcing term have been included demonstrating the applicability and high efficiency of the TSADM in comparison to other existing numerical methods. The diffusion coefficients do not require to satisfy any certain conditions/restrictions for using the TSADM. There are no restrictions imposed on the problems for diffusion coefficients, and a similar procedures of the TSADM has followed to the obtained analytical solution for the multi-dimensional space fractional diffusion equations with variable coefficients.
