Abstract

An exponential type of convolution quadrature is proposed as a time-stepping method for the nonlinear subdiffusion equation with bounded measurable initial data. The method combines contour integral representation of the solution, quadrature approximation of contour integrals, multistep exponential integrators for ordinary differential equations, and locally refined stepsizes to resolve the initial singularity. The proposed $k$-step exponential convolution quadrature can have $k$th-order convergence for bounded measurable solutions of the nonlinear subdiffusion equation based on natural regularity of the solution with bounded measurable initial data.
