The object of this paper is to present the exact solution of the fractional Cattaneo equation for describing anomalous diffusion. The classical Cattaneo model has been generalised to the space-time fractional Cattaneo model. The method of the joint Laplace and Fourier transform is used in deriving t

✦ Synopsis
A flexible numerical scheme for the discretization of the space-time fractional diffusion equation is presented. The model solution is discretized in time with a pseudo-spectral expansion of Mittag-Leffler functions. For the space discretization, the proposed scheme can accommodate either low-order finitedifference and finite-element discretizations or high-order pseudo-spectral discretizations. A number of examples of numerical solutions of the space-time fractional diffusion equation are presented with various combinations of the time and space derivatives. The proposed numerical scheme is shown to be both efficient and flexible.
