Abstract

Abstract : In this paper, one class of finite difference scheme is proposed to solve nonlinear space fractional Sobolev equation based on the Crank-Nicolson (CN) method. Firstly, a fractional centered finite difference method in space and the CN method in time are utilized to discretize the original equation. Next, the existence, uniqueness, stability, and convergence of the numerical method are analyzed at length, and the convergence orders are proved to be O τ 2 + h 2 in the sense of l 2 -norm, H α / 2 -norm, and l ∞ -norm. Finally, the extensive numerical examples are carried out to verify our theoretical results and show the effectiveness of our algorithm in simulating spatial fractional Sobolev equation.
