Abstract

In this paper, the uncertain characteristic Cauchy reaction-diffusion equation is solved by the variational iteration method. The uncertain characteristic Cauchy problem is converted to a system of characteristic Cauchy problems by parametric representation and LU-fuzzy representation of fuzzy numbers. Also, using the variational iteration method and 2 representations of fuzzy numbers, 2 representations of approximate fuzzy solution are found and compared. Finally, the method is explained by 2 illustrative examples.
