Abstract

We consider a one-dimensional moving-boundary problem for the time-fractional diffusion equation. The time-fractional derivative of order α ∈ (0, 1) is taken in the sense of Caputo. We study the asymptotic behavior, as t tends to infinity, of a general solution by using a fractional weak maximum principle. Also, we give some particular exact solutions in terms of Wright functions.
