contents In this work, we propose an exponentially convergent numerical method for the Caputo fractional propagator $S_α(t)$ and the associated mild solution of the Cauchy problem with time-independent sectorial operator coefficient $A$ and Caputo fractional derivative of order $α\in (0,2)$ in time. The proposed methods are constructed by generalizing the earlier developed approximation of $S_α(t)$ with help of the subordination principle. Such technique permits us to eliminate the dependence of the main part of error estimate on $α$, while preserving other computationally relevant properties of the original approximation: native support for multilevel parallelism, the ability to handle initial data with minimal spatial smoothness, and stable exponential convergence for all $t \in [0, T]$. Ultimately, the use of subordination leads to a significant improvement of the method's convergence behavior, particularly for small $α< 0.5$, and opens up further opportunities for efficient data reuse. To validate theoretical results, we consider applications of the developed methods to the direct problem of solution approximation, as well as to the inverse problem of fractional order identification.
