Time-discretization method for a multi-term time fractional differential equation with delay

Abstract: This paper discusses a multi-term time-fractional delay differential equation in a real Hilbert space. An iterative scheme for a multi-term time-fractional differential equation is established using Rothe's method. The method of semi-discretization is extended to this kind of time fractional problem with delay in the case that the time delay parameter $\nu >0$ satisfies $\nu\leq T$, where $T$ denotes the final time. We apply the accretivity of the operator $A$ in an iterative scheme to establish the existence and regularity of strong solutions to the considered problem. Finally, an example is provided to demonstrate the abstract result.
