Abstract

In this paper, based on the L1 discretization for the Caputo fractional derivative, a fully implicit nonlinear difference scheme with (\(2-\alpha \))-th order accuracy in time and second-order accuracy in space is proposed to solve the two-dimensional time-fractional Burgers’ equation with time delay, where \(\alpha \in \) (0,1) is the fractional order. The existence of the numerical scheme is studied by the Browder fixed point theorem. Furthermore, with the help of a fractional Grönwall inequality, the constructed scheme is verified to be unconditionally stable and convergent in \(L_2\) norm by using the energy method. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the correctness of our theoretical analysis.
