Abstract

We deal with complex spatial diffusion equations with time-fractional derivative and study their stochastic solutions. In particular, we complexify the integral operator solution to the heat-type equation where the time derivative is replaced with the convolution-type generalization of the regularized Caputo derivative. We prove that this operator is solution of a complex time-fractional heat equation with complex spatial variable. This approach leads to a wrapped Brownian motion on a circle time-changed by the inverse of the related subordinator. This time-changed Brownian motion is analyzed and, in particular, some results on its moments, as well as its construction as weak limit of continuous-time random walks, are obtained. The extension of our approach to the higher dimensional case is also provided.

Summary

Introduction

The study of the evolution equations with complex spatial variables is a quite recent research topic in the theory of the partial differential equations and complex analysis. ), u(x, 0) = f (x), where t > 0, x ∈ R and f ∈ BUC(R) This approach is interesting because, by exploiting the theory of semigroups of linear operators, it is possible to obtain a new complex version of the heat equation (see (2.2) below) and study the properties of its analytic solution (see [8,9]). We study the stochastic solution of the complex heat equation, when the time-derivative is replaced by a convolution-type operator, which generalizes the Caputo fractional derivative. The generalized fractional setting and the complex time-fractional heat equation are introduced, where the stochastic solution related to the related complex Cauchy problem is obtained.
