Abstract

In this paper, the Monte Carlo Markov chain method for solving the modified anomalous fractional sub-diffusion equation is studied. Most of the previous methods are low in temporal and spatial accuracy order. Based on the idea of Monte Carlo Markov chain method and compact finite difference schemes, a probability model for solving the modified anomalous fractional sub-diffusion equation is established. Numerical examples are given to show the feasibility of the proposed scheme. Compared with the compact finite difference method, the present method is truly meshless and is easy to be implemented with high temporal and spatial accuracy order. And it is also applied to solve partial differential equation in irregular domains.
