TY - JOUR T1 - Stability and Convergence of an Implicit Difference Approximation for the Space Riesz Fractional Reaction-Dispersion Equation JO - Numerical Mathematics, a Journal of Chinese Universities VL - 3 SP - 253 EP - 264 PY - 2007 DA - 2007/08 SN - 16 DO - http://doi.org/ UR - https://global-sci.org/intro/article_detail/nm/10069.html KW - AB - In this paper, we consider a Riesz space-fractional reaction-dispersion equation (RSFRDE). The RSFRDE is obtained from the classical reaction-dispersion equation by replacing the second-order space derivative with a Riesz derivative of order $\beta\in (1,2].$ We propose an implicit finite difference approximation for RSFRDE. The stability and convergence of the finite difference approximations are analyzed. Numerical results are found in good agreement with the theoretical analysis.
