Abstract:

This paper develops strong solutions and stochastic solutions for the tempered fractional diffusion equation on bounded domains. First the eigenvalue problem for tempered fractional derivatives is solved. Then a separation of variables and eigenfunction expansions in time and space are used to write strong solutions. Finally, stochastic solutions are written in terms of an inverse subordinator.
