We formulate and analyze new methods for the solution of a partial integrodifferential equation with a positive-type memory term. These methods combine the finite element Galerkin (FEG) method for the spatial discretization with alternating direction implicit (ADI) methods based on the Crank–Nicolson (CN) method and the second order backward differentiation formula for the time stepping. The ADI FEG methods are proved to be of optimal accuracy in time and in thenorm in space. Furthermore, the analysis is extended to include an ADI CN FEG method with a graded mesh in time for problems with a nonsmooth kernel. Numerical results confirm the predicted convergence rates and also exhibit optimal spatial accuracy in thenorm.
