Abstract
In this paper we present numerical methods for solving a non-linear time-fractional parabolic model. To cope with non-local in time nature of the problem, we exploit the idea of the two-grid method and develop fast numerical algorithms. Moreover, we show that suitable modifications of the standard two-grid technique lead to significant reduction of the computational time. Numerical results are also discussed.
