Abstract:
The main purpose of this work is to study the numerical solution of a time fractional partial integro-differential equation of Volterra type, where the time derivative is defined in Caputo sense. Our method is a combination of the classical L1 scheme for temporal derivative, the general second order central difference approximation for spatial derivative and the repeated quadrature rule for integral part. The error analysis is carried out and it is shown that the approximate solution converges to the exact solution. Several examples are given in support of the theoretical findings. In addition, we have shown that the order of convergence is more high on any subdomain away from the origin compared to the entire domain.
