Abstract
In this paper, we study the local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method for some time-fractional fourth-order differential equations. The method was recently employed to solve the problem and shown to converge with order . We find that the LDG method can actually achieve convergence rate equals
. The claims are justified by numerical tests.
