    Fractional Volterra functional differential equations (F-VFDEs), including fractional ordinary differential equations (F-ODEs), fractional delay differential equations (F-DDEs), fractional integro-differential equations (F-IDEs), fractional delay integro-differential equations (F-DIDEs) and other types, which appear in practice, are widely used to simulate some scientific problems in many fields of biology and finance [30,34]. Recently, F-VFDEs have received considerable attention because they can more accurately provide mathematical models of real-life problems with memory and hereditary characteristics than integer-order Volterra functional differential equations (VFDEs) due to the non-locality of the fractional derivative. Further, some studies (such as [1,4,5,6,7,11,28]) have been devoted to the existence and uniqueness of the solution for F-VFDEs and its special cases, which provides a theoretical foundation for its numerical computation and analysis.

    Let Rm be an mdimensional Euclidian space with the inner product , and the corresponding norm , and CRm(I) be a Banach space consisting of all continuous mapping y:IRm. In this paper, we study the long time behavior of averaged L1 method for the initial value problem of F-VFDEs:

    {Dαty(t)=f(t,y(t),y()),0tT,y(t)=φ(t),τt0, (1.1)

    where T>0 and 0τ+ are real constants, φCRm[τ,0] is a given initial function and Dαt denotes the Caputo time fractional derivative of order α(0,1), which is defined by

    Dαty(t):=(I1αty)(t):=t0ω1α(tν)y(ν)dν,t>0,

    where the Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operator Iαt is given by

    Iαty(t):=t0ωα(tν)y(ν)dν,whereωα(t):=tα1Γ(α).

    Throughout this paper, we assume that f(t,y(t),y()) is independent of the values of the function y(ξ) with t<ξT, i.e., f(t,y(t),y()) as a Volterra functional, and that problem (1.1) has a unique true solution y(t) with the required regularity. On this basis, we shall consider two types of problems. Firstly, we suppose that the continuous function f:[0,+)×Rm×CRm[τ,+)Rm satisfies the dissipative structural condition:

    2u,f(t,u,ψ())γ+βu2+λmaxtμ2(t)ξtμ1(t)ψ(ξ)2, (1.2)

    where γ0,β<0 and λ0 are real constants, and the functions μ1(t) and μ2(t) are assumed to satisfy

    0μ1(t)μ2(t)t+τ,t0. (1.3)

    For convenience, we shall always use the symbol D(γ,β,λ,μ1,μ2) to denote the problem class consisting of all the problems (1.1) satisfying the condition (1.2).

    Secondly, we assume that the continuous function f:[0,T]×Rm×CRm[τ,T]Rm satisfies the one-sided Lipschitz condition

    2u1u2,f(t,u1,ψ())f(t,u2,ψ())pu1u22, (1.4)

    and the Lipschitz condition

    2f(t,u,ψ1())f(t,u,ψ2())qmaxtμ2(t)ξtμ1(t)ψ1(ξ)ψ2(ξ), (1.5)

    where p<0 and q0 are real constants, and the functions μ1(t) and μ2(t) also satisfy the condition (1.3). Similarly, we shall always use the symbol D(p,q,μ1,μ2) to denote the problem class consisting of all the problems (1.1) satisfying the conditions (1.4) and (1.5). Note that the constant T may also be +, but in this case, the intervals [0,T] and [τ,T] should be replaced by [0,+) and [τ,+), respectively.

    When α=1, the F-VFDEs (1.1) are reduced to the classical integer-order VFDEs. Many papers have been obtained the dissipativity, contractivity and asymptotic stability results of the true and numerical solution to VFDEs, see [13,14,15,29,31,32,33], and (related works for the special cases of VFDEs can be found in the references therein). Dissipative dynamical systems are widely used in physics and engineering with the property of possessing a bounded absorbing set that all trajectories enter in a finite time and, thereafter, remain inside [18,20,22]. So it's natural to ask whether the true and numerical solution to F-VFDEs (1.1) can also possess dissipativity, contractivity, and asymptotic stability properties similar to those of the VFDEs. There is no doubt that the answer is positive, but the literature about the long time behavior of solutions to F-VFDEs is limited.

    Time delays occur in many interconnected real systems due to transportation of energy, materials and information. If the delay effects and memory characteristics of the real systems are taken into consideration at the same time, it could lead to various F-DDEs. In [10], Katja Krol discussed the asymptotic properties of d-dimensional linear F-DDEs and obtained the necessary and sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability of equations of this type using the inverse Laplace transform method, and proved polynomial decay of stable solutions. Kaslik and Sivasundaram [9] presented several analytical and numerical methods for the asymptotic stability and bounded-input, bounded-output stability analysis of linear F-DDEs. Additionally, the asymptotic stability of nonlinear discrete fractional pantograph equations with nonlocal initial conditions has been investigated in [2]. In 2015, Wang and Xiao [23] studied the dissipativity and contractivity of the F-ODEs, the particular cases of the F-VFDEs (1.1) without the functional term. [24] obtained the dissipativity and stability of the F-VFDEs (1.1) by using the fractional generalization of the Halanay-type inequality under almost the same assumptions as the classic integer-order VFDEs. Moreover, Wang et al. [25] established the contractivity and dissipativity of time fractional neutral functional differential equations and proved that the solutions have a polynomial decay rate. From the perspective of structure-preserving algorithms, it is worthwhile to investigate whether or not numerical methods retain the qualitative behavior of the underlying system. Motivated by this, Wang and Zou [27] not only discussed the asymptotic behavior with algebraic decay rate of the exact solution of the F-VFDEs (1.1), but also proved that the two schemes based on the Grünwald-Letnikov formula and L1 method are dissipative and contractive, and can preserve the exact algebraic decay rate as the continuous equations. It should be pointed out that the polynomial/algebraic decay rate of the solutions is a significant feature for fractional differential equations, and is also the essential difference between fractional and integer differential equations, mainly because of the nonlocal nature of fractional derivatives. Later, Wang et al. [26] improved the existing algebraic dissipativity and contractivity rates of the solutions to the scalar F-ODEs, and further established the contractivity and dissipativity with an algebraic decay rate of numerical solutions to fractional backward differential formulas under some assumptions on the weight coefficients. Li and Zhang [12] applied the L1 method with the linear interpolation procedure to solve the nonlinear fractional pantograph equations, and proved that the proposed numerical scheme can inherit the long time behavior of the underlying problems without any step size restrictions.

    When considering the applicability of numerical methods for F-VFDEs, it is highly desirable to have numerical methods which, not only inherit properties of the underlying system, but also possess higher accuracy. However, we regretfully find that the existing research [12,26,27] devoted to the numerical dissipativity and contractivity analysis for the F-VFDEs and its special cases is still restricted within the limits of numerical methods that are of less than second-order accuracy. The reasons for this may be as follows: On the one hand, the nonlocal character of the fractional derivatives and the complex structure of the nonlinear right-hand side function in the problem (1.1) make the numerical analysis so much more complicated that some new analytical techniques or refined analyses may need to be developed. On the other hand, it can be seen from the literature [26,27] that the discrete version of the fractional generalization of the traditional Leibniz rule, which plays a central role in establishing numerical dissipativity and contractivity, holds only under the assumption that the weight coefficients have good signs and relationships as shown in Section 2, while the weight coefficients determined by the higher-order numerical methods generally do not satisfy these assumptions. Fortunately, the discrete convolution kernels obtained by using a novel second-order formula to approximate the Caputo fractional derivative have nice sign properties but not uniform monotonicity in [8]. Additionally, the uniform monotonicity for the coefficients of an averaged L1 scheme has been proved by Shen et al. [19] under some assumptions, which provide a possibility to break the aforementioned restriction. Inspired by this, we attempt to investigate the dissipativity and contractivity of the averaged L1 method for F-VFDEs, which is the aim of this paper.

    The rest of this paper is organized as follows: In Section 2, we introduce the averaged L1 approximation of the Caputo fractional derivative and further construct a numerical method for F-VFDEs combining the averaged L1 scheme and appropriate piecewise interpolation. The dissipativity and contractivity with an algebraic decay rate of the numerical method are obtained in Section 3. In Section 4, some numerical experiments are carried out to verify our theoretical results. Finally, some conclusions are drawn in Section 5.

    Averaged L1 scheme, named as an averaged variant of the classic L1 scheme, is a fractional generalization of the Crank-Nicolson scheme, and has been proven to have second-order accuracy in [8,17,19,21,35]. In this paper, we use the notation in [19] to record this averaged scheme as the ¯L1 scheme, which is also called L1+ formula in [8]. In this section, we will construct a numerical method based on the ¯L1 scheme to solve the initial value problem of F-VFDEs (1.1).

    Let N be a positive integer, and consider the uniform time mesh on interval [0,T] with the time stepsize h=TN and the mesh points tn=nh,n=0,1,,N. For any function y(t)CRm[0,T], denote the piecewise linear interpolation function of y(t) on each subinterval [tk1,tk](1kN) as (Π1y)(t), i.e.,

    (Π1y)(t)=tkthy(tk1)+ttk1hy(tk),

    thus

    (Π1y)(t)=y(tk)y(tk1)h.

    Taking the integral average for the Caputo fractional derivative Dαty(t) over each time interval [tn1,tn] and then approximating y(t) by (Π1y)(t), leads to

    1htntn1Dαty(t)dt=1htntn1(t0ω1α(tν)y(ν)dν)dt1htntn1(nk=1min{t,tk}tk1ω1α(tν)(Π1y)(ν)dν)dt=nk=11h2tntn1min{t,tk}tk1ω1α(tν)dνdt[y(tk)y(tk1)]=nk=1a(n)nk[y(tk)y(tk1)]=nk=0b(n)nky(tk),

    where

    a(n)nk:=1h2tntn1min{t,tk}tk1ω1α(tν)dνdt,1kn (2.1)

    and

    b(n)nk:={a(n)n1,k=0,a(n)nka(n)nk1,1kn1,a(n)0,k=n. (2.2)

    Then, we can obtain the ¯L1 approximation for the Caputo fractional derivative Dαty(t) [19]:

    ˉDαhy(tn)=1htntn1I1α(Π1y)(t)dt=nk=1a(n)nk[y(tk)y(tk1)]=nk=0b(n)nky(tk). (2.3)

    From the formula (2.1), an easy computation gives rise to the precise expression of the coefficients a(n)nk:

    a(n)nk:={1Γ(3α)hα[(nk+1)2α2(nk)2α+(nk1)2α],1kn1,1Γ(3α)hα,k=n. (2.4)

    The following lemma gives some properties for the coefficients a(n)nk and b(n)nk.

    Lemma 2.1. Assume that α>2(ln3/ln2)0.415. Then, the coefficients a(n)nk and b(n)nk are defined, respectively, by formulas (2.1) and (2.2) to satisfy

    (i) a(n)0>a(n)1>>a(n)n1>0 for n1;

    (ii) b(n)0=a(n)0=1Γ(3α)hα>0,b(n)k<0,k=1,2,,n;

    (iii) nk=0b(n)k=0.

    Proof. Since the properties (ii) and (iii) can be acquired directly by the formula (2.2) and the property (i), we need only prove the property (i). For n=1, it follows from formula (2.1) that a(1)0=1Γ(3α)hα>0. For n2,1kn1, by the integral mean value theorem, there is ξk(tk1,tk), such that

    a(n)nk=1h2tntn1min{t,tk}tk1ω1α(tν)dνdt=1htntn1ω1α(tξk)dt=1Γ(2α)h[(tnξk)1α(tn1ξk)1α].

    It is apparent, from the above equality, that a(n)nk is a positive function with respect to ξk. Consequently, differentiating both sides of the above equation with respect to ξk, we have

    (a(n)nk)(ξk)=1Γ(1α)h[(tn1ξk)α(tnξk)α]>0,

    which implies that a(n)nk is a monotonically increasing positive function of ξk. It follows that a(n)1>a(n)2>>a(n)n1>0. Then, it remains to show that a(n)0>a(n)1 for n2. By simple computation, we can derive from formula (2.4) that

    a(n)0a(n)1=1Γ(3α)hα1Γ(3α)hα(22α2)=1Γ(3α)hα(322α).

    Hence, the inequality a(n)0>a(n)1 is valid if, and only if, α>2(ln3/ln2)0.415. Thus we conclude that if α>2(ln3/ln2)0.415, then the property (i) holds. This completes the proof of Lemma 2.1.

    It should be pointed out that b(n)k is meaningless for k>n by formula (2.2). Therefore, if there is no particular statement below, we always assume that b(n)k=0 for k>n. From Lemma 2.1 and the references [26,27], we immediately obtain the following conclusion.

    Lemma 2.2. Let {b(n)k}k=0 be weights obtained by the ¯L1 approximation (2.3) for the Caputo fractional derivative. If α(0.415,1), then the following inequality holds:

    nk=0b(n)nkyk22yn,nk=0b(n)nkyk,n1. (2.5)

    To discretize the initial value problem of F-VFDEs (1.1), taking the integral average over each subinterval [tn1,tn], we have

    1htntn1Dαty(t)dt=1htntn1f(t,y(t),y())dt. (2.6)

    Then, the ¯L1 formula (2.3) approximates the Caputo derivative in Eq (2.6), the right rectangle rule deals with the integral, and an appropriate piecewise interpolation operator Πh treats the functional term. Thus we can propose the following ¯L1 method for the initial value problem (1.1) in F-VFDEs:

    {yh(t)=Πh(t;φ,y0,y1,,yn),τttn,nk=0b(n)nkyk=f(tn,yn,yh()),n=1,2,. (2.7)

    Here, the interpolation function yh(t) is an approximation to the true solution y(t) of the problem (1.1), y0:=φ(0), and ynRm is an approximation to the value y(tn) of y(t) at the time point tn. For simplicity, we always assume that the interpolation operator Πh satisfies the condition [29]:

    maxˉtttnΠh(t;φ,y0,y1,,yn){cπmaxη(ˉt)knyk,η(ˉt)0,cπmax{max1knyk,maxτt0φ(t)},η(ˉt)<0, (2.8)

    where τˉttn,ykRm,k=0,1,,n. The constant cπ1 is of moderate size and independent of ˉt,n,yk and φ, and the function η(t) is defined by

    η(t)=min{mZ+:tmt}ˉp,

    where Z+ denotes a set which consists of all nonnegative integers, and ˉp>0 be a positive integer depending only on the procedure of the interpolation.

    From the condition (2.8), we can easily derive the canonical condition [14]:

    maxˉtttnΠh(t;φ,y0,y1,,yn)Πh(t;ϕ,z0,z1,,zn){cπmaxη(ˉt)knykzk,τˉttn,η(ˉt)0,cπmax{max1knykzk,maxτt0φ(t)ϕ(t)},τˉttn,η(ˉt)<0. (2.9)

    Here and later, {zn} is a numerical solution sequence produced by applying the ¯L1 method (2.7) to any given perturbed problem

    {Dαtz(t)=f(t,z(t),z()),0tT,z(t)=ϕ(t),τt0, (2.10)

    where ϕ(t)CRm[τ,0] is a given initial function.

    This section will focus on the dissipative and contractive analysis of ¯L1 method for the initial value problem (1.1). Before proceeding further, let us introduce two important lemmas.

    Lemma 3.1 ([16,26,27]). Consider the discrete Volterra equation

    xn=cn+nk=0dnkxk,n0, (3.1)

    where the kernel {dk}k=0l1, i.e., k=0|dk|<. Then,

    xn0 (is bounded) whenever cn0 (is bounded, respectively) as n

    if, and only if,

    k=0dkζk1,|ζ|1. (3.2)

    Furthermore, let

    k=0skζk=(1k=0dkζk)1, (3.3)

    where {sk}k=0 are coefficients. If {dk}k=0l1 and the condition (3.2) holds, then we can get {sk}k=0l1 and the estimate xlsl1cl.

    Lemma 3.2 ([27]). Consider the linear Volterra convolution equation

    xn+1=gn+nk=0Gnkxk,n1, (3.4)

    where {Gk}k=0 satisfies the spectral condition ρ=k=0|Gk|<1.

    (i) If limngn=g, then limnxn=(1ρ)1g [3].

    (ii) Let C be a positive constant and α(0,1). If gnCnα as n, then xnC(1ρ)1nα as n [26].

    Based on Lemma 2.2 and the above two lemmas, we now give the main results of this section.

    Theorem 3.1. Suppose {yn} be an approximation sequence produced by using the method (2.7) to solve the problem (1.1) D(γ,β,λ,μ1,μ2) with β+λc2π<0, {b(n)k}k=0 are weights determined by the ¯L1 method, and yh=Πh is the piecewise σdegree (σ1) Lagrangian interpolation operator satisfying the condition (2.8). Assume that α(0.415,1), and η(ˆtn)1 with ˆtn=tnμ2(tn). Then, for any given ε>0, there exists a positive integer n0, such that

    yn2γβ+λc2π+ε,n>n0. (3.5)

    It follows that the method (2.7) is dissipative with an absorbing set

    B=B(0,γβ+λc2π+ε).

    Proof. From the method (2.7) and the condition (1.2), we can get

    2yn,nk=0b(n)nkyk=2yn,f(tn,yn,yh())γ+βyn2+λmaxtnμ2(tn)ξtnμ1(tn)yh(ξ)2γ+βyn2+λmaxˆtnξtnyh(ξ)2. (3.6)

    In view of η(ˆtn)1, it follows further from the condition (2.8) and the inequality (3.6) that

    2yn,nk=0b(n)nkykγ+βyn2+λc2πmax1knyk2. (3.7)

    Since α(0.415,1), we can know from Lemma 2.2 that the inequality (2.5) holds. Hence, combining the inequalities (2.5) and (3.6), we have

    nk=0b(n)nkyk2γ+βyn2+λc2πmax1knyk2.

    Because of the fact that β<0, the above inequality can be further deduced as

    yn2γb(n)0β+n1k=0|b(n)nk|b(n)0βyk2+λc2πb(n)0βmax1knyk2. (3.8)

    For the sake of simplicity, let

    P=γb(n)0β0,Qnk=|b(n)nk|b(n)0β>0,R=λc2πb(n)0β0,

    then the inequality (3.8) can be rewritten as the equivalent form

    yn2P+n1k=0Qnkyk2+Rmax1knyk2. (3.9)

    Now we consider the following two cases successively:

    For the case of max1knyk2=yn2, the inequality (3.9) can be rewritten as

    yn2P+n1k=0Qnkyk2+Ryn2.

    Set u0:=y02,d0:=R,un:=yn2,cn=P and dn:=Qn for n1, then the above inequality is equivalent to

    uncn+nk=0dnkuk,n1. (3.10)

    To get a bound of yn, we define a sequence {xn} by

    xn=cn+nk=0dnkxk,n0. (3.11)

    Due to the fact that β+λc2π<0, we can derive from simple calculation that

    ρ1=k=0|dk|=k=1Qk+R=k=1|b(n)k|b(n)0β+λc2πb(n)0β=nk=1|b(n)k|b(n)0β+λc2πb(n)0β=b(n)0+λc2πb(n)0β=1+λc2πhαΓ(3α)1βhαΓ(3α)<1.

    This implies that {dk}k=0l1 and the condition (3.2) in Lemma 3.1 holds for ζ=1. Let k=0sk=(1k=0dk)1, then it follows from ρ1(0,1) that k=0sk=(1ρ1)1=j=0(ρ1)j. Thus, it is easy to acquire that sk0 for k0 and sl1=k=0sk=(1ρ1)1. Therefore, using Lemma 3.1 can yield the estimate

    xlsl1cl=P1ρ1=γβ+λc2π. (3.12)

    So, if we can prove the inequalities 0unxn holds for all n0, then the bound of yn follows immediately. Next, we give the proof of the above statement by mathematical induction.

    Since u0=y02 is given, we can choose x0, such that 0u0x0. Let c0=(1d0)x0, then

    u0(1d0)x0+d0x0,

    which indicates the inequality (3.10) is valid for n=0. When n=1, subtracting equality (3.11) from inequality (3.10) yields

    u1x1d0(u1x1)+d1(u0x0).

    Hence, it can be shown that

    (1d0)(u1x1)d1(u0x0)0.

    By the definition of d0 and β+λc2π<0, we get 0<d0<1. Then, the inequality u1x1 can be deduced immediately. Similarly, for n2, taking the difference between inequality (3.10) and equality (3.11) leads to

    unxnnk=0dnk(ukxk),

    i.e.,

    (1d0)(unxn)n1k=0dnk(ukxk)0.

    Thus, we obtain unxn. In conclusion, we have proved that 0unxn holds for all n0. By this proven result and the inequality (3.12), we have the estimate

    unxnγβ+λc2π,n.

    As a result, we acquire

    yn2γβ+λc2π,n. (3.13)

    For the case of max1knyk2=max1kn1yk2, we can easily observe from the inequality (3.9) that

    yn2P+n1k=0Qnkyk2+Rmax1kn1yk2P+n1k=0Qnkyk2+Rmax0kn1yk2,n2. (3.14)

    For simplicity, define

    Ik={1,max0kn1yk2=yk2,0,max0kn1yk2yk2.

    Then, the inequality (3.14) can be rewritten as

    yn2P+n1k=0(Qnk+RIk)yk2,n2. (3.15)

    Set v0=y02,gn=P,vn=yn2 and Gn=Qn+1+RIk for n1. Then, the inequality (3.15) is equivalent to

    vn+1gn+nk=0Gnkvk,n1.

    Define a sequence by

    xn+1=gn+nk=0Gnkxk,n1.

    Note that β+λc2π<0. By simple computation, we can attain

    ρ2=k=0|Gk|=k=0|Qk+1+RIk|=k=1|Qk|+R=k=1|b(n)k|b(n)0β+λc2πb(n)0β=nk=1|b(n)k|b(n)0β+λc2πb(n)0β=b(n)0+λc2πb(n)0β=1+λc2πhαΓ(3α)1βhαΓ(3α)<1

    and

    g=limngn=P=γb(n)0β=γhαΓ(3α)1βhαΓ(3α).

    Therefore, it follows from the result (i) in Lemma 3.2 that

    limnxn=(1ρ2)1g=γβ+λc2π.

    Proceeding as in the proof of the case of max1knyk2=yn2, we can show that 0vnxn holds for all n0. Consequently, we can get the estimate

    vnxnγβ+λc2π,n,

    which implies that

    yn2γβ+λc2π,n. (3.16)

    According to the definition of limit, a combination of inequalities (3.13) and (3.16) shows that the open ball B=B(0,γβ+λc2π+ε) is an absorbing set for any ε>0, and the method (2.7) is dissipative. Therefore, we complete the proof of Theorem 3.1.

    Theorem 3.2. Assume that the piecewise σdegree (σ1) Lagrangian interpolation operator Πh satisfies the canonical condition (2.9), and η(ˆtn)1 with ˆtn=tnμ2(tn). Then, the numerical solutions {yn} and {zn}, attained by using the method (2.7) to solve respectively the problems (1.1) and (2.10), which belong to the class D(p,q,μ1,μ2) with p+qcπ<0, satisfy the contractivity estimate

    ynzn2Cαnα,n (3.17)

    provided that α(0.415,1), where Cα is a positive constant independent of n.

    Proof. Let ek=ykzk. By the method (2.7) and conditions (1.4) and (1.5) can yield

    2en,nk=0b(n)nkek=2en,f(tn,yn,yh())f(tn,zn,zh())=2ynzn,f(tn,yn,yh())f(tn,zn,yh())+2en,f(tn,zn,yh())f(tn,zn,zh())pen2+en2f(tn,zn,yh())f(tn,zn,zh())pen2+qenmaxtnμ2(tn)ξtnμ1(tn)yh(ξ)zh(ξ)pen2+qenmaxˆtnξtnyh(ξ)zh(ξ). (3.18)

    Since α(0.415,1), it follows from Lemma 2.2 that the inequality (2.5) holds. Therefore, using inequalities (2.5) and (3.18) together with the canonical condition (2.9), we can get

    nk=0b(n)nkek2pen2+qcπmaxη(ˆtn)knek2pen2+qcπmax1knek2.

    Thanks to the fact that b(n)0>0 and p<0, the above inequality can be rewritten as

    en2n1k=0|b(n)nk|b(n)0pek2+qcπb(n)0pmax1knek2.

    Set Fnk=|b(n)nk|/(b(n)0p) and H=qcπ/(b(n)0p), such that the above inequality is equivalent to

    en2n1k=0Fnkek2+Hmax1knek2. (3.19)

    Next, we consider the following two cases successively.

    For the case of max1knek2=en2, the inequality (3.19) can be further deduced as

    en2n1k=0Fnkek2+Hen2.

    In view of p+qcπ<0, it is easy to check that H(0,1). Thus, we can further obtain

    en2Fn1He02+n1k=1Fnk1Hek2,n2.

    Define a sequence {xn} satisfying

    xn2=Fn1Hx02+n1k=1Fnk1Hxk2,n2.

    By some routine calculations, we have

    ρ3=11Hk=1Fk=b(n)0pb(n)0pqcπk=1|b(n)k|b(n)0p=1b(n)0pqcπnk=1|b(n)k|=b(n)0b(n)0pqcπ=11(p+qcπ)hαΓ(3α)<1.

    According to the Taylor formula, it holds that

    Fn=|b(n)n|b(n)0p=n2α+(n2)2α2(n1)2α1phαΓ(3α)=O(nα),n. (3.20)

    Hence, the result (ii) in Lemma 3.2 leads to

    xn2C(1ρ3)1nα,n.

    From the mathematical induction method and a similar proof process in Theorem 3.1, it can be proven that 0en2xn2 is valid for all n0. As a result, we can get the estimate

    ynzn2C(1ρ3)1nα,n. (3.21)

    For the case of max1knek2=max1kn1ek2, the inequality (3.19) has the equivalent form

    en2Fne02+n1k=1(Fnk+HIk)ek2.

    Then, some simple computations yield

    ρ4=k=1Fk+H=k=1|b(n)k|b(n)0p+qcπb(n)0p=nk=1|b(n)k|b(n)0p+qcπb(n)0p=b(n)0+qcπb(n)0p=1+qcπhαΓ(3α)1phαΓ(3α)<1.

    Similarly, combining the formula (3.15) and the result (ii) in Lemma 3.2 yields the estimate

    ynzn2C(1ρ4)1nα,n. (3.22)

    Based on the estimates (3.17) and (3.22), it can easily be concluded that the method (2.7) is contractive and there exists a positive constant Cα independent of n, such that the contractive estimate (3.17) holds. The proof of Theorem 3.2 is now completed.

    In this section, we will present some numerical experiments to verify our theoretical results in previous sections.

    Example 4.1. Consider the nonlinear F-DIDE:

    {Dαty1(t)=3y1(t)+sin(y1(t1))sin(y2(t))+0.2tt1(5sint+sin(θ)y1(θ)+y2(θ))dθ,t0,Dαty2(t)=2.8y2(t)cos(y2(t1))cos(y1(t))+0.1tt1(10cost+cos(θ)y2(θ)+y1(θ))dθ,t0, (4.1)

    where y1(t),y2(t) are real-valued scalar functions.

    Let u=(u1,u2)T,ψ(t)=(ψ1(t),ψ2(t))T, and

    f(t,u,ψ())=(3u1+sin(ψ1(t1))sin(u2)+0.2tt1(5sint+sin(θ)ψ1(θ)+ψ2(θ))dθ2.8u2cos(ψ2(t1))cos(u1)+0.1tt1(10cost+cos(θ)ψ2(θ)+ψ1(θ))dθ).

    Then

    u,f(t,u,ψ())=3u21+u1(sin(ψ1(t1))sin(u2)+0.2tt1(5sint+sin(θ)ψ1(θ)+ψ2(θ))dθ)2.8u22+u2(cos(ψ2(t1))cos(u1)+0.1tt1(10cost+cos(θ)ψ2(θ)+ψ1(θ))dθ)3u21+0.5u21+0.5u21+0.5+0.1u21+0.1(tt1|sin(θ)ψ1(θ)+ψ2(θ)|dθ)22.8u22+0.5u22+0.5u22+0.5+0.05u22+0.05(tt1|cos(θ)ψ2(θ)+ψ1(θ)|dθ)211.9u211.75u22+0.15maxt1θt(|ψ1(θ)|+|ψ2(θ)|)211.75u2+0.3maxt1θtψ(θ)2.

    Thus, we get

    2u,f(t,u,ψ())23.5u2+0.6maxt1θtψ(θ)2,

    which means that the problem (4.1) belongs to the class D(γ,β,λ,μ1,μ2) with γ=2,β=3.5,λ=0.6,μ1(t)=0 and μ2(t)=1. Therefore, the F-DIDE (4.1) is dissipative according to Theorem 2.1 in [24].

    Let v=(v1,v2)T,χ=(χ1(t),χ2(t))T. Then,

    uv,f(t,u,ψ())f(t,v,ψ())=3(u1v1)2+(u1v1)sin(ψ1(t1))(sin(u2)sin(v2))2.8(u2v2)2(u2v2)cos(ψ2(t1))(cos(u1)cos(v1))3(u1v1)22.8(u2v2)2+2|(u1v1)(u2v2)|2(u1v1)21.8(u2v2)21.8uv2,

    which gives

    2uv,f(t,u,ψ())f(t,v,ψ())3.6uv2. (4.2)

    Further,

    f(t,u,ψ())f(t,u,χ())2=((sin(ψ1(t1))sin(χ1(t1)))sin(u2)+0.2tt1(sin(θ)(ψ1(θ)χ1(θ))+(ψ2(θ)χ2(θ)))dθ)2+((cos(ψ2(t1))+cos(χ2(t1)))cos(u1)+0.1tt1(cos(θ)(ψ2(θ)χ2(θ))+(ψ1(θ)χ1(θ)))dθ)2|ψ1(t1)χ1(t1)|2+0.04(tt1|sin(θ)(ψ1(θ)χ1(θ))+(ψ2(θ)χ2(θ))|dθ)2+0.2|ψ1(t1)χ1(t1)|2+0.2(tt1|sin(θ)(ψ1(θ)χ1(θ))+(ψ2(θ)χ2(θ))|dθ)2+|ψ2(t1)χ2(t1)|2+0.01(tt1|cos(θ)(ψ2(θ)χ2(θ))+(ψ1(θ)χ1(θ))|dθ)2+0.1|ψ2(t1)χ2(t1)|2+0.1(tt1|cos(θ)(ψ2(θ)χ2(θ))+(ψ1(θ)χ1(θ))|dθ)21.2|ψ1(t1)χ1(t1)|2+1.1|ψ2(t1)χ2(t1)|2+0.35maxt1θt(|ψ1(t1)χ1(t1)|+|ψ2(t1)χ2(t1)|)21.9maxt1θtψ(θ)χ(θ)2,

    which leads to

    2f(t,u,ψ())f(t,u,χ()21.9maxt1θtψ(θ)χ(θ). (4.3)

    Consequently, it follows from the inequalities (4.2) and (4.3) that the system (4.1) belongs to the class D(p,q,μ1,μ2) with p=3.6,q=21.9,μ1(t)=0 and μ2(t)=1. Therefore, the F-DIDE (4.1) is contractive and asymptotically stable according to Theorem 2.2 in [24].

    Now, we apply the ¯L1 method (2.7) with piecewise linear interpolation operator (i.e., σ=1 and cπ=1 [14]) to solve the system (4.1). It is easy to check that

    β+λc2π=3.5+0.6=2.9<0

    and

    p+qcπ=3.6+21.9<0.

    We choose the step size h=0.01, and successively take α=0.5,0.7,0.9,1 to plot the numerical solutions of the system (4.1) with the following two different initial functions:

    (I) y1(t)=sin(t),y2(t)=cos(t),t[1,0];

    (II) y1(t)=5cos(t),y2(t)=2sin(t),t[1,0],

    respectively. The numerical results are given in Figures 12. It can be seen from the first to third subfigures in Figures 12 that the numerical solutions can preserve the dissipativity of the problem (4.1), which confirms the result of Theorem 3.1. Comparing the four subfigures in Figures 12, we find that the solutions of the integer-order DIDE (α=1) decay exponentially into a given ball. However, the solutions of the F-DIDE no longer decay exponentially but with a polynomial rate into a bounded absorbing set because of the nonlocal nature of the fractional derivative.

    Figure 1.  The numerical solutions of system (4.1) with initial functions (I) for t[0,50].
    Figure 2.  The numerical solutions of system (4.1) with initial functions (II) for t[0,50].

    Let

    y(t)=(y1(t),y2(t))T,z(t)=(z1(t),z2(t))T

    and

    e(t)=y(t)z(t)

    be the difference between two solutions y(t) and z(t) with the different initial functions φ(t) and ϕ(t). In the numerical simulations, we take the initial functions (I) as φ(t), and initial functions (II) as ϕ(t). To observe the contractivity behavior of numerical solutions more intuitively, Figure 3 draws the error curves of the numerical solutions of F-DIDE (4.1) with the different initial functions (I) and (II) for α=0.5,0.7,0.9,1. We can observe from Figure 3 that the numerical solutions are contractive, and, the larger the order α is, the faster the contractive rate becomes. Furthermore, we also find that the contractivity of the numerical solutions for the integer-order DIDE has an exponential decay rate, while the contractivity for the F-DIDE is polynomial.

    Figure 3.  Errors of the numerical solutions of system (4.1) with different initial functions (I) and (II) for t[0,50] with different α.

    From Theorem 6 in [27], we have asymptotic contractive rate

    y(t)z(t)2max1ξ0φ(ξ)ϕ(ξ)2Cαtα,t. (4.4)

    To further measure the quantitative behavior of the contractivity rate corresponding to two different initial functions φ(t) and ϕ(t), we define an index function Iα as in [26,27]:

    Iα(t)=ln(max1ξ0φ(ξ)ϕ(ξ)2Cα)ln(y(t)z(t)2)ln(t),t>1.

    Clearly, the index function

    Iα(t)ln(y(t)z(t)2)/ln(t)

    as t, and it is independent of the initial value max1ξ0φ(ξ)ϕ(ξ)2Cα. Thus, we can take

    max1ξ0φ(ξ)ϕ(ξ)2Cα=y(1)z(1)2

    in our numerical experiments. Table 1 shows the values of the index function Iα(t) at

    for

    α=0.1,0.3,0.5,0.7,0.9

    with h=0.01. We find that the contractivity rate is about e(t)2=O(t2α), which is about twice as much as our theoretical prediction for numerical contractivity rate given in Theorem 3.2. For scalar F-ODE or essentially decoupled linear systems, Wang et al. [26] obtained the optimal contractivity rate e(t)2=O(t2α) by directly estimating the decay rate of y(t)z(t) to avoid the square-root operation of the Mittag-Leffler function. Based on this and the results shown in Table 1, we believe that the optimal contractivity rate for F-VFDEs can be achieved theoretically and numerically with some new analytical techniques developed in the future.

    In this paper, we mainly investigate the long time behavior of the ¯L1 method for the initial value problem of F-VFDEs. With the help of the fact that the weight coefficients of ¯L1 scheme for Caputo fractional derivative have good signs and uniform monotonicity for α(0.415,1), we prove that the ¯L1 method is dissipative and contractive, and can preserve the algebraic contractive rate. Finally, the numerical experiments are conducted to illustrate our theoretical results.
