Distributed Order Calculus and Equations of Ultraslow Diffusion
Abstract
We consider diffusion type equations with a distributed order derivative in the time variable. This derivative is defined as the integral in α of the Caputo-Dzhrbashian fractional derivative of order α ∈ (0,1) with a certain positive weight function. Such equations are used in physical literature for modeling diffusion with a logarithmic growth of the mean square displacement. In this work we develop a mathematical theory of such equations, study the derivatives and integrals of distributed order.
