Comparison of two radial basis collocation methods for Poisson problems with fractional Laplacian

Guofei Pang
Abstract
Research on meshless methods for partial differential equations with fractional Laplacian, especially in high spatial dimensions, is rare. This chapter compares two existing radial basis collocation methods on 1D, 2D, and 3D fractional Poisson problems with zero non-local boundary condition. Benchmark solutions over unit balls in 1D, 2D, and 3D spaces are employed to validate the methods. The two methods are compared in terms of solution accuracy, computational cost, and flexibility. Numerical results show that the two methods have comparable solution accuracy and same-order time complexity, but varied flexibilities. Additionally, the influences of fractional order on the solution accuracy differ from each other.
