In this paper, we present a linearized compact difference scheme for one-dimensional time-space fractional nonlinear diffusion-wave equations with initial boundary value conditions. The initial singularity of the solution is considered, which often generates a singular source and increases the difficulty of numerically solving the equation. The Crank-Nicolson technique, combined with the midpoint formula and the second-order convolution quadrature formula, is used for the time discretization. To increase the spatial accuracy, a fourth-order compact difference approximation, which is constructed by two compact difference operators, is adopted for spatial discretization. Then, the unconditional stability and convergence of the proposed scheme are strictly established with superlinear convergence accuracy in time and fourth-order accuracy in space. Finally, numerical experiments are given to support our theoretical results.
