An inverse problem for a fractional diffusion equation with fractional power type nonlinearities

Abstract: We study the well-posedness of a semilinear fractional diffusion equation and formulate an associated inverse problem. We determine fractional power type nonlinearities from the exterior partial measurements of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. Our arguments are based on a first order linearization as well as the parabolic Runge approximation property.
