Pointwise error estimates of compact difference scheme for mixed-type time-fractional Burgers' equation
share
In this paper, based on the developed nonlinear fourth-order operator and method of order reduction, a novel fourth-order compact difference scheme is constructed for the mixed-type time-fractional Burgers' equation, from which L_1-discretization formula is employed to deal with the terms of fractional derivative, and the nonlinear convection term is discretized by nonlinear compact difference operator. Then a fully discrete compact difference scheme can be established by approximating spatial second-order derivative with classic compact difference formula. The convergence and stability are rigorously proved in the L^∞-norm by the energy argument and mathematical induction. Finally, several numerical experiments are provided to verify the theoretical analysis.
