Unique determination of fractional order and source term in a fractional diffusion equation from sparse boundary data

In this article, for a two dimensional fractional diffusion equation, we study an inverse problem for simultaneous restoration of the fractional order and the source term from the sparse boundary measurements. By the adjoint system corresponding to our diffusion equation, we construct useful quantitative relation between unknowns and measurements. From Laplace transform and the knowledge in complex analysis, the uniqueness theorem is proved.
