Analytical solution for the time-fractional telegraph equation

Abstract

We discuss and derive the analytical solution for three basic problems of the so-called timefractional telegraph equation. The Cauchy and Signaling problems are solved by means of juxtaposition of transforms of the Laplace and Fourier transforms in variable t and x, respectively. the appropriate structures and negative prosperities for their Green functions are provided. The boundary problem in a bounded space domain is also solved by the spatial Sine transform and temporal Laplace transform, whose solution is given in the form of a series. © 2010 F. Huang.
