On a final value problem for fractional reaction‐diffusion equation with Riemann‐Liouville fractional derivative

Abstract

In this paper, we study a backward problem for a fractional diffusion equation with nonlinear source in a bounded domain. By applying the properties of Mittag‐Leffler functions and Banach fixed point theorem, we establish some results above the existence, uniqueness, and regularity of the mild solutions of the proposed problem in some suitable space. Moreover, we also show the ill‐posedness of our problem in the sense of Hadamard. The regularized solution is given, and the convergence rate between the regularized solution and the exact solution is also obtained.
