Fractional Fokker-Planck equation plays an important role in describing anomalous dynamics. To the best of our knowledge, the existing discussions mainly focus on this kind of equation involving one diffusion operator. In this paper, we first derive the fractional Fokker-Planck equation with two-scale diffusion from the Levy process framework, and then the fully discrete scheme is built by using the $L_{1}$ scheme for time discretization and finite element method for space. With the help of the sharp regularity estimate of the solution, we optimally get the spatial and temporal error estimates. Finally, we validate the effectiveness of the provided algorithm by extensive numerical experiments.

In this work we consider an extension of a recently proposed structure preserving numerical scheme for nonlinear Fokker-Planck-type equations to the case of nonconstant full diffusion matrices. While in existing works the schemes are formulated in a one-dimensional setting, here we consider exclusively the two-dimensional case. We prove that the proposed schemes preserve fundamental structural properties like nonnegativity of the solution without restriction on the size of the mesh and entropy dissipation. Moreover, all the methods presented here are at least second order accurate in the transient regimes and arbitrarily high order for large times in the hypothesis in which the flux vanishes at the stationary state. Suitable numerical tests will confirm the theoretical results.
In this paper, we consider the strong convergence of the time-space fractional diffusion equation driven by fractional Gaussion noise with Hurst index $Hin(frac{1}{2},1)$. A sharp regularity estimate of the mild solution and the numerical scheme constructed by finite element method for integral fractional Laplacian and backward Euler convolution quadrature for Riemann-Liouville time fractional derivative are proposed. With the help of inverse Laplace transform and fractional Ritz projection, we obtain the accurate error estimates in time and space. Finally, our theoretical results are accompanied by numerical experiments.
In neuroscience, the distribution of a decision time is modelled by means of a one-dimensional Fokker--Planck equation with time-dependent boundaries and space-time-dependent drift. Efficient approximation of the solution to this equation is required, e.g., for model evaluation and parameter fitting. However, the prescribed boundary conditions lead to a strong singularity and thus to slow convergence of numerical approximations. In this article we demonstrate that the solution can be related to the solution of a parabolic PDE on a rectangular space-time domain with homogeneous initial and boundary conditions by transformation and subtraction of a known function. We verify that the solution of the new PDE is indeed more regular than the solution of the original PDE and proceed to discretize the new PDE using a space-time minimal residual method. We also demonstrate that the solution depends analytically on the parameters determining the boundaries as well as the drift. This justifies the use of a sparse tensor product interpolation method to approximate the PDE solution for various parameter ranges. The predicted convergence rates of the minimal residual method and that of the interpolation method are supported by numerical simulations.
We consider the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation with random electric field where the random field is parametrized by countably many infinite random variables due to uncertainty. At the theoretical level, with suitable assumption on the anisotropy of the randomness, adopting the technique employed in elliptic PDEs [Cohen, DeVore, 2015], we prove the best N approximation in the random space breaks the dimension curse and the convergence rate is faster than the Monte Carlo method. For the numerical method, based on the adaptive sparse polynomial interpolation (ASPI) method introduced in [Chkifa, Cohen, Schwab, 2014], we develop a residual-based adaptive sparse polynomial interpolation (RASPI) method which is more efficient for multi-scale linear kinetic equation, when using numerical schemes that are time-dependent and implicit. Numerical experiments show that the numerical error of the RASPI decays faster than the Monte-Carlo method and is also dimension independent.
In this paper, we focus on designing a well-conditioned Glarkin spectral methods for solving a two-sided fractional diffusion equations with drift, in which the fractional operators are defined neither in Riemann-Liouville nor Caputo sense, and its physical meaning is clear. Based on the image spaces of Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operators on $L_p([a,b])$ space discussed in our previous work, after a step by step deduction, three kinds of Galerkin spectral formulations are proposed, the final obtained corresponding scheme of which shows to be well-conditioned---the condition number of the stiff matrix can be reduced from $O(N^{2alpha})$ to $O(N^{alpha})$, where $N$ is the degree of the polynomials used in the approximation. Another point is that the obtained schemes can also be applied successfully to approximate fractional Laplacian with generalized homogeneous boundary conditions, whose fractional order $alphain(0,2)$, not only having to be limited to $alphain(1,2)$. Several numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the derived schemes. Besides, based on the numerical results, we can observe the behavior of mean first exit time, an interesting quantity that can provide us with a further understanding about the mechanism of abnormal diffusion.
