We study a nonlinear elliptic boundary value problem defined on a smooth bounded domain involving the fractional Laplace operator and a concave-convex term, together with mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions.

This paper investigates the overall solution attractivity of the fractional differential equation involving the ψ-Hilfer fractional derivative and using the Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem. We highlight some particular cases of the results presented here, especially involving the Riemann-Liouville, thus illustrating the broad class of fractional derivatives to which these results can be applied

The paper deals with the large time asymptotic of the fundamental solution for a time fractional evolution equation with a convolution type operator. In this equation we use a Caputo time derivative of order α ∈ (0, 1), and assume that the convolution kernel of the spatial operator is symmetric, integrable and shows a super-exponential decay at infinity. Under these assumptions we describe the point-wise

In the paper, a linear differential equation with variable coefficients and a Caputo fractional derivative is considered. For this equation, a Cauchy problem is studied, when an initial condition is given at an intermediate point that does not necessarily coincide with the initial point of the fractional differential operator. A detailed analysis of basic properties of the fundamental solution matrix

An fractional abstract Cauchy problem generated by a sectorial operator is investigated. An inequality of coercivity type for its solution with respect to a complex interpolation scale generated by a sectorial operator with the same parameters is established. An application to differential parabolic initial-boundary value problems in bounded domains with a fractional time derivative is shown.

In this paper, we investigate two types of problems (the initial-value problem and nonlocal Cauchy problem) for fractional differential equations involving ψ-Hilfer derivative in multivariable case (ψ-m-Hilfer derivative). First we propose and discuss ψ-fractional integral, ψ-fractional derivative and ψ-Hilfer type fractional derivative of a multivariable function f : ℝm → ℝ (m is a positive integer)

We show that fractional powers of general sectorial operators on Banach spaces can be obtained by the harmonic extension approach. Moreover, for the corresponding second order ordinary differential equation with incomplete data describing the harmonic extension we prove existence and uniqueness of a bounded solution (i.e., of the harmonic extension).

We give sufficient conditions for global existence and finite time blow up of positive solutions for a nonautonomous weakly coupled system with distinct fractional diffusions and Dirichlet boundary conditions. Our approach is based on the intrinsic ultracontractivity property of the semigroups associated to distinct fractional diffusions and the study of blow up of a particular system of nonautonomus

The classical “ε-δ” definition of limits is of little use to quantitative purposes, as is needed, for instance, for computational and applied mathematics. Things change whenever a realistic and computable estimate of the function δ(ε) is available. This may be the case for Lipschitz continuous and Hölder continuous functions, or more generally for functions admitting of a modulus of continuity. This

In this paper, we focus on option pricing models based on time-fractional diffusion with generalized Hilfer-Prabhakar derivative. It is demonstrated how the option is priced for fractional cases of European vanilla option pricing models. Series representations of the pricing formulas and the risk-neutral parameter under the time-fractional diffusion are also derived.

In this paper, we introduce a two-point boundary value problem for a finite fractional difference equation with a perturbation term. By applying spectral theory, an associated Green’s function is constructed as a series of functions and some of its properties are obtained. Under suitable conditions on the nonlinear part of the equation, some existence and uniqueness results are deduced.

We apply Erdélyi–Kober fractional integrals to the study of Radon type transforms that take functions on the Grassmannian of j-dimensional affine planes in ℝn to functions on a similar manifold of k-dimensional planes by integration over the set of all j-planes that meet a given k-plane at a right angle. We obtain explicit inversion formulas for these transforms in the class of radial functions under

In this paper, we address the one-parameter families of the fractional integrals and derivatives defined on a finite interval. First we remind the reader of the known fact that under some reasonable conditions, there exists precisely one unique family of the fractional integrals, namely, the well-known Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals. As to the fractional derivatives, their natural definition

In this work, we study a new type of linear partial differential equations – the variable-order subdiffusion equation. Here the Laplace operator in space acts on the Riemann-Liouville time derivative of space-dependent order. We construct a variable-order Sobolev and prove the weak solvability of the initial-boundary value problem for this equation, which confirms the well-posedness of the problem

This paper presents an averaging principle for fractional stochastic differential equations in ℝn with fractional order 0 < α < 1. We obtain a time-averaged equation under suitable conditions, such that the solutions to original fractional equation can be approximated by solutions to simpler averaged equation. By mathematical manipulations, we show that the mild solution of two equations before and

In this article, we establish a technique for transforming arbitrary real order delta difference equations with impulses to corresponding summation equations. The technique is applied to non-integer order delta difference equation with some boundary conditions. Furthermore, the summation formulation for impulsive fractional difference equation is utilized to construct fixed point operator which in

In this paper, we consider a Takagi-like function on 2-series field and give its 2-adic derivatives by applying Vladimirov operator. The 2-adic derivatives of Takagi-like function with order 0 < α < 1 exist and show some fractal feature. Furthermore, both box dimension and Hausdorff dimension of the graph of its derivatives are obtained and equal to 1 + α.

In this paper, we consider a regular Fractional Sturm–Liouville Problem (FSLP) of order μ (0 < μ < 1). We approximate the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the problem using a fractional variational approach. Recently, Klimek et al. [] presented the variational approach for FSLPs defined in terms of Caputo derivatives and obtained eigenvalues, eigenfunctions for a special range of fractional order

In this paper we investigate the following nonlocal problem with singular term and critical Hardy-Sobolev exponent

Two significant inequalities for generalized time fractional derivatives at extreme points are obtained. Then, we apply the inequalities to establish the maximum principles for multi-term time-space fractional variable-order operators. Finally, we employ the principles to investigate two kinds of diffusion equations involving generalized time-fractional Caputo derivatives and space-fractional Riesz-Caputo

Inverse problem for a family of multi-term time fractional differential equation with non-local boundary conditions is studied. The spectral operator of the considered problem is non-self-adjoint and a bi-orthogonal set of functions is used to construct the solution. The operational calculus approach has been used to obtain the solution of the multi-term time fractional differential equations. Integral

A class of two-point boundary value problem whose highest-order term is a Caputo fractional derivative of order α ∈ (1, 2] with a convection term is considered. Its boundary conditions are of Robin type including the Dirichlet boundary conditions as a special case. An explicit formula for the associated Green function is obtained in terms of two-parameter Mittag-Leffler functions. This work improves

In this paper, based on the “fuzzy” calculus covering the continuous range of operations between two couples of arithmetic operations (+, –) and (×, :), a new form of the fractional integral is proposed occupying an intermediate position between the integral and derivative of the first order. This new form of the fractional integral satisfies the C1 criterion according to the Ross classification. The

The paper deals with the initial value problem for linear systems of FDEs with variable coefficients involving Riemann–Liouville derivatives. The technique of the generalized Peano–Baker series is used to obtain the state-transition matrix. Explicit solutions are derived both in the homogeneous and inhomogeneous case. The theoretical results are supported by an example.

This paper deals with the existence of nontrivial solutions for critical possibly degenerate Kirchhoff fractional (p, q) systems. For clarity, the results are first presented in the scalar case, and then extended into the vectorial framework. The main features and novelty of the paper are the (p, q) growth of the fractional operator, the double lack of compactness as well as the fact that the systems

We analyze the inverse boundary value-problem to determine the fractional order ν of nonautonomous semilinear subdiffusion equations with memory terms from observations of their solutions during small time. We obtain an explicit formula reconstructing the order. Based on the Tikhonov regularization scheme and the quasi-optimality criterion, we construct the computational algorithm to find the order

We survey the ‘generalized fractional Poisson process’ (GFPP). The GFPP is a renewal process generalizing Laskin’s fractional Poisson counting process and was first introduced by Cahoy and Polito. The GFPP contains two index parameters with admissible ranges 0 < β ≤ 1, α > 0 and a parameter characterizing the time scale. The GFPP involves Prabhakar generalized Mittag-Leffler functions and contains

We propose a model for the transmission of perturbations across the amino acids of a protein represented as an interaction network. The dynamics consists of a Susceptible-Infected (SI) model based on the Caputo fractional-order derivative. We find an upper bound to the analytical solution of this model which represents the worse-case scenario on the propagation of perturbations across a protein residue

In recent years, many papers discuss the theory and applications of new fractional-order derivatives that are constructed by replacing the singular kernel of the Caputo or Riemann-Liouville derivative by a non-singular (i.e., bounded) kernel. It will be shown here, through rigorous mathematical reasoning, that these non-singular kernel derivatives suffer from several drawbacks which should forbid their

Some plots of the authors’ paper “On modifications of the exponential integral with the Mittag-Leffler function” (Fract. Calc. Appl. Anal. 21, No 5 (2018), pp. 1156–1169) were wrong. This note provides the correct plots contained in concerning the generalized sine and cosine integrals.

In this paper, we study the continuation of solutions to systems of Caputo fractional order differential equations. The continuation is constructed and proven by using the Schauder Fixed Point Theorem. As a necessary prerequisite to the continuation, the existence and uniqueness results generalized for systems are also reviewed.

In this paper, an integral inequality and the fractional Halanay inequalities with bounded time delays in fractional difference are investigated. By these inequalities, the asymptotical stability conditions of Caputo and Riemann-Liouville fractional difference equation with bounded time delays are obtained. Several examples are presented to illustrate the results.

This paper is devoted to the investigation of the kinetics of Hadamard-type fractional differential systems (HTFDSs) in two aspects. On one hand, the nonexistence of non-trivial periodic solutions for general HTFDSs, which are considered in some functional spaces, is proved and the corresponding eigenfunction of Hadamard-type fractional differential operator is also discussed. On the other hand, by

In this article, we introduce the concept of α-fractionally convex functions. We primarily focus on characterizing some of the qualitative properties of convex functions with the assistance of fractional order operators. Also, we discuss the connection of optimality, monotonicity, and convexity of a function in the sense of fractional calculus. Several examples are provided to support the proposed

We prove that the Weyl fractional derivative is a useful instrument to express certain properties of the zeta related functions. Specifically, we show that a known reflection property of the Hurwitz zeta function ζ(n, a) of integer first argument can be extended to the more general case of ζ(s, a), with complex s, by replacement of the ordinary derivative of integer order by Weyl fractional derivative

The Lyapunov function method is a powerful tool to stability analysis of functional differential equations. However, this method is not effectively applied for fractional differential equations with delay, since the constructing Lyapunov-Krasovskii function and calculating its fractional derivative are still difficult. In this paper, to overcome this difficulty we propose an analytical approach, which

In this paper, the existence of two nontrivial solutions for a fractional problem with critical exponent, depending on real parameters, is established. The variational approach is used based on a local minimum theorem due to G. Bonanno. In addition, a numerical estimate on the real parameters is provided, for which the two solutions are obtained.

We define a time-changed fractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process by composing a fractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with the inverse of a subordinator. Properties of the moments of such process are investigated and the existence of the density is shown. We also provide a generalized Fokker-Planck equation for the density of the process.

In this paper we study subordination principles for fractional differential equations of Sobolev type in Banach space. With the help of the theory of Sobolev type resolvent families (known also as propagation family) as well as these subordination principles, we obtain the existence of mild solutions for this kind of equations. We study simultaneously the case 0 < α < 1 and 1 < α < 2 for the Caputo

This is a continuation (Part II) of our previous paper []. In this paper we present a simple method of the fractional-order value calculation of the fractional-order discrete integration element. We assume that the input and output signals are known. The linear time-invariant fractional-order difference equation is reduced to the polynomial in a variable ν with coefficients depending on the measured

In this paper, it is proved that a time fractional reaction diffusion system with reaction terms of the Brusselator type admits a global solution by using the feedback method of F. Rothe []. Furthermore, some results on the large time behavior of the solutions are obtained. We give a positive answer to Problem 6 of the valuable paper of Gal and Warma [].

Fractional-order elliptic problems are investigated in case of inhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary data. The boundary integral form is proposed as a suitable mathematical model. The corresponding theory is completed by sharpening the mapping properties of the corresponding potential operators. The existence-uniqueness result is stated also for two-dimensional domains. Finally, a mild condition is provided

In this paper, our formulation generalizes the fractional power series to the matrix form and a new version of the matrix fractional Taylor’s series is also considered in terms of Caputo’s fractional derivative. Moreover, several significant results have been realignment to these generalizations. Finally, to demonstrate the capability and efficiency of our theoretical results, we present the solutions

This paper deals with the multi-term generalisation of the time-fractional diffusion-wave equation for general operators with discrete spectrum, as well as for positive hypoelliptic operators, with homogeneous multi-point time-nonlocal conditions. Several examples of the settings where our nonlocal problems are applicable are given. The results for the discrete spectrum are also applied to treat the

A new mathematical tool, porous functions, has been suggested recently. In this paper operations with porous functions are further discussed alongside with computational tools, which are necessary for evaluation of porous functions, their visualization, and basic operations with such functions in two- and three-dimensional cases.
