A UNIQUENESS RESULT FOR AN INVERSE PROBLEM IN A SPACE-TIME FRACTIONAL DIFFUSION EQUATION

Fractional (nonlocal) diffusion equations replace the integer-order derivatives in space and time by fractional-order derivatives. This article considers a nonlocal inverse problem and shows that the exponents of the fractional time and space derivatives are determined uniquely by the data $u(t, 0)= g(t),\; 0 < t < T$. The uniqueness result is a theoretical background for determining experimentally the order of many anomalous diffusion phenomena, which are important in physics and in environmental engineering.
