Abstract
We revisit the Cauchy problem for the time-fractional diffusion equation, which is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the first-order time derivative with a fractional derivative of order β∈(0,2]. By using the Fourier–Laplace transforms the fundamentals solutions (Green functions) are shown to be high transcendental functions of the Wright-type that can be interpreted as spatial probability density functions evolving in time with similarity properties. We provide a general representation of these functions in terms of Mellin–Barnes integrals useful for numerical computation.
