Homotopy analysis method for solving linear and nonlinear fractional diffusion-wave equation

Abstract In this paper, we adopt the homotopy analysis method (HAM) to obtain solutions of linear and nonlinear fractional diffusion and wave equation. The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. Some illustrative examples are presented.
