Nonexistence for a system of time‐fractional diffusion equations in an exterior domain

Abstract

A system of time‐fractional diffusion equations posed in an exterior domain of ( ) under homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions is investigated in this paper. The time‐fractional derivatives are considered in the Caputo sense. Using nonlinear capacity estimates specifically adapted to the nonlocal properties of the Caputo fractional derivative, the geometry of the domain, and the boundary conditions, we obtain sufficient conditions for the nonexistence of a weak solution to the considered system.
