Abstract
Mathematics Subject Classification: 26A33, 45K05, 60J60, 60G50, 65N06, 80-99.By generalization of Ehrenfest’s urn model, we obtain discrete approximations
to spatially one-dimensional time-fractional diffusion processes with
drift towards the origin. These discrete approximations can be interpreted
(a) as difference schemes for the relevant time-fractional partial differential
equation, (b) as random walk models. The relevant convergence questions as
well as the behaviour for time tending to infinity are discussed, and results
of numerical case studies are displayed.
