Abstract

We present an analysis of existence, uniqueness, and smoothness of the solution to a class of fractional ordinary differential equations posed on the whole real line that models a steady state behavior of a certain anomalous diffusion, advection, and reaction. The anomalous diffusion is modeled by the fractional Riemann-Liouville differential operators. The strong solution of the equation is sought in a Sobolev space defined by means of Fourier Transform. The key component of the analysis hinges on a characterization of this Sobolev space with the Riemann-Liouville derivatives that are understood in a weak sense. The existence, uniqueness, and smoothness of the solution is demonstrated with the assistance of several tools from functional and harmonic analyses.

Appendix A. Several pertinent theorems

Theorem A.1

(Plancherel Theorem (eg. [18] p. 187)). GivenwL2(ℝ), there is a uniqueŵL2(ℝ) so that the following properties hold: 1) ifwL1(ℝ) ∩ L2(ℝ), thenŵ = 𝓕(w), 2) for everywL2(ℝ), ∥w2 = ∥ŵ2, 3) the mappingwŵis a Hilbert space isomorphism ofL2(ℝ) ontoL2(ℝ).

Theorem A.2

([8], p. 189). Givenv, wL2(ℝ), then (v, w) = (, ŵ). andw = (ŵ).

Theorem A.3

([9], p. 204). IfvL2(ℝ), wL1(ℝ), thenvw^ = v̂ŵL2(ℝ).

Theorem A.4

([23], p. 191). Let (X, (⋅, ⋅)) be a Hilbert space and letYbe a subspace ofX. Y = Xif and only if 0 ∈ Xis the only one satisfying (x, y) = 0 for allyY.

Theorem A.5

([4], p. 107). LetvC0k(ℝ) fork ≥ 1 andwLloc1(ℝ). ThenvwCk(ℝ) andDα(vw) = (Dαv) ∗ w. In particular, ifvC0(ℝ), wLloc1(ℝ), thenvwC(ℝ).
