A Stable and Convergent Hybridized Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Time-Fractional Telegraph Equations

Abstract

In this paper, we extend the application of the hybridized discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method to solve time-fractional telegraph equations. In fact, we use an HDG method for space discretization and L1 and L2 finite difference schemes using non-uniform meshes for time discretization. Thanks to a special kind of discrete Gronwall inequality, we prove that the HDG method is unconditionally stable and it is convergent with the optimal spatial order of convergence. Two numerical experiments are tested to confirm the theoretical results.
