Stochastic representation of solution to nonlocal-in-time diffusion

Analysis of PDEs 2018-10-23 v1

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to give a stochastic representation for the solution to a natural extension of the Caputo-type evolution equation. The nonlocal-in-time operator is defined by a hypersingular integral with a (possibly time-dependent) kernel function, and it results in a model which serves a bridge between normal diffusion and anomalous diffusion. We derive the stochastic representation for the weak solution of the nonlocal-in-time problem in case of nonsmooth data. We do so by starting from an auxiliary Caputo-type evolution equation with a specific forcing term. Numerical simulations are also provided to support our theoretical results.
