It is well-known that the backward heat conduction problem of recovering the temperature $u(\cdot, t)$ at a time $t\geq 0$ from the knowledge of the temperature at a later time, namely $g:= u(\cdot, \tau)$ for $\tau>t$, is ill-posed, in the…

We consider initial/boundary value problems for time-fractional parabolic PDE of order $0<\alpha<1$ with Caputo fractional derivative (also called fractional diffusion equations in the literature). We prove well-posedness of corresponding…
