• The inverse tempered stable subordinator is a stochastic process that models power law waiting times between particle movements, with an exponential tempering that allows all moments to exist. This paper shows that the probability density function of an inverse tempered stable subordinator solves a tempered time-fractional diffusion equation, and its “folded” density solves a tempered time-fractional telegraph equation. Two explicit formulae for the density function are developed, and applied to compute explicit solutions to tempered fractional Cauchy problems, where a tempered fractional derivative replaces the first derivative in time. Several examples are given, including tempered fractional diffusion equations on bounded or unbounded domains, and the probability distribution of a tempered fractional Poisson process. It is shown that solutions to the tempered fractional diffusion equation have a cusp at the origin.
