Abstract
A canonical formalism is developed for a fractional diffusion equation, introducing an auxiliary field. The equation is recast in the form of the canonical equation of motion with respect to the Hamiltonian and the Dirac bracket. The generator of a dilatation transformation is constructed, and then the scale invariance and its violation are discussed.
