A Singularly Perturbed Boundary Value Problems with Fractional Powers of Elliptic Operators

Abstract: A boundary value problem for a fractional power $0 < \varepsilon < 1$ of the second-order elliptic operator is considered. The boundary value problem is singularly perturbed when $\varepsilon \rightarrow 0$. It is solved numerically using a time-dependent problem for a pseudo-parabolic equation. For the auxiliary Cauchy problem, the standard two-level schemes with weights are applied. The numerical results are presented for a model two-dimen-sional boundary value problem with a fractional power of an elliptic operator. Our work focuses on the solution of the boundary value problem with $0 < \varepsilon \ll 1$.
