English abstract:
Several authors have proposed and analyzed numerical methods for fractional differential operators, in particular Fourier Galerkin schemes and Gaffarelli-Silvestre extensions. In this thesis we consider a different approach. By means of a reduced basis method, the desired opeator is projected to a low dimensional space Vr, where the fractional power can be directly evaluated via the eigen-system. The optimal choice of Vr is provided by the so called Zolotarev points, ensuring exponential convergence. Numerical experiments evaluating the operator and the inverse operator confirm the analysis.
