The quasi‐reversibility method for a final value problem of the time‐fractional diffusion equation with inhomogeneous source

Abstract

This paper is devoted to discuss a multidimensional backward heat conduction problem for time‐fractional diffusion equation with inhomogeneous source. This problem is ill‐posed. We use quasi‐reversibility regularization method to solve this inverse problem. Moreover, the convergence estimates between regularization solution and the exact solution are obtained under the a priori and the a posteriori choice rules. Finally, the numerical examples for one‐dimensional and two‐dimensional cases are presented to show that our method is feasible and effective.
