Abstract

In this paper, we consider an inverse problem for a fractional diffusion equation which is highly ill-posed. Such a problem is obtained from the classical diffusion equation by replacing the first-order time derivative by the Caputo fractional derivative of order α(0<α<1). We show that the problem is severely ill-posed and further apply an optimal regularization method to solve it based on the solution in the frequency domain. We can prove the optimal convergence estimate, which shows that the regularized solution depends continuously on the data and is a good approximation to the exact solution. Numerical examples show that the proposed method works well.
