“…We use a classical scheme, called L1 approximation, which is naturally derived from the approximation of the fractional integral as a Riemann sum and long known to be consistent (for a concise illustration, we refer to section 3 of [29]). Moreover, the L1 approximation scheme stands out by being able to preserve at the discrete level certain desirable features of the original PDEs, such as maximum principle [14] and energy stability [13,27,29]. Therefore, approximations can be constructed to converge to suitable notions of weak solutions, which may be viscosity solutions to Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations [14], or distributional solutions in Sobolev spaces to diffusion (phase field) equations [13,27,29].…”
