Abstract

This article is concerned with an inverse problem of simultaneously determining a spatially varying coefficient and a Robin coefficient for a one-dimensional fractional diffusion equation with a time-fractional derivative of order α(0,1)\alpha\in(0,1). We prove the uniqueness for the inverse problem by observation data at one interior point over a finite time interval, provided that a coefficient is known on a subinterval. Our proof is based on the uniqueness in the inverse spectracl problem for a Sturm-Liouville problem by means of the Weyl mm-function and the spectral representation of the solution to an initial-boundary value problem for the fractional diffusion equation.
