A preliminary group classification based on symmetry operators is applied to study invariance properties of the time-fractional $(\alpha +2)$(α+2)-dimensional fractional evolution equation. The concepts of Riemann–Liouville and Caputo fractional derivatives are used in this study. The similarity variables obtained from symmetries and one-dimensional optimal systems of constructed Lie algebras are used in order to find the group-invariant solutions of the equation. Finally conservation laws of the equation are derived via a modified version of Noether’s theorem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work explores the existence and uniqueness criteria for the solution of hybrid Caputo–Hadamard fractional sequential differential equations (HCHFSDEs) by employing Darbo's fixed-point theorem. Fractional differential equations play a pivotal role in modeling complex phenomena in various areas of science and engineering. The hybrid approach considered in this work combines the advantages of both the Caputo and Hadamard fractional derivatives, leading to a more comprehensive and versatile model for describing sequential processes. To address the problem of the existence and uniqueness of solutions for such hybrid fractional sequential differential equations, we turn to Darbo's fixed-point theorem, a powerful mathematical tool that establishes the existence of fixed points for certain types of mappings. By appropriately transforming the differential equation into an equivalent fixed-point formulation, we can exploit the properties of Darbo's theorem to analyze the solutions' existence and uniqueness. The outcomes of this research expand the understanding of HCHFSDEs and contribute to the growing body of knowledge in fractional calculus and fixed-point theory. These findings are expected to have significant implications in various scientific and engineering applications, where sequential processes are prevalent, such as in physics, biology, finance, and control theory.

This study investigates a class of initial-boundary value problems pertaining to the time-fractional mixed sub-diffusion and diffusion-wave equation (SDDWE). To facilitate the development of a numerical method and analysis, the original problem is transformed into a new integro-differential model which includes the Caputo derivatives and the Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals with orders belonging to (0, 1). By providing an a priori estimate of the exact solution, we have established the continuous dependence on the initial data and uniqueness of the solution for the problem. We propose a second-order method to approximate the fractional Riemann-Liouville integral and employ an L2-type formula to approximate the Caputo derivative. This results in a method with a temporal accuracy of second-order for approximating the considered model. The proof of the unconditional stability of the proposed difference scheme is established. Moreover, we demonstrate the proposed method's potential to construct and analyze a second-order L2-type numerical scheme for a broader class of the time-fractional mixed SDDWEs with multi-term time-fractional derivatives. Numerical results are presented to assess the accuracy of the method and validate the theoretical findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study uses the optimal auxiliary function method to approximate solutions for fractional-order non-linear partial differential equations, utilizing Riemann–Liouville's fractional integral and the Caputo derivative. This approach eliminates the need for assumptions about parameter magnitudes, offering a significant advantage. We validate our approach using the time-fractional Cahn–Hilliard, fractional Burgers–Poisson, and Benjamin–Bona–Mahony–Burger equations. Comparative testing shows that our method outperforms new iterative, homotopy perturbation, homotopy analysis, and residual power series methods. These examples highlight our method's effectiveness in obtaining precise solutions for non-linear fractional differential equations, showcasing its superiority in accuracy and consistency. We underscore its potential for revealing elusive exact solutions by demonstrating success across various examples. Our methodology advances fractional differential equation research and equips practitioners with a tool for solving non-linear equations. A key feature is its ability to avoid parameter assumptions, enhancing its applicability to a broader range of problems and expanding the scope of problems addressable using fractional calculus techniques.

We couple the L1 discretization for the Caputo derivative in time with the spectral Galerkin method in space to devise a scheme that solves quasilinear subdiffusion equations. Both the diffusivity and the source are allowed to be nonlinear functions of the solution. We prove the stability and convergence of the method with spectral accuracy in space. The temporal order depends on the regularity of the solution in time. Furthermore, we support our results with numerical simulations that utilize parallelism for spatial discretization. Moreover, as a side result, we find exact asymptotic values of the error constants along with their remainders for discretizations of the Caputo derivative and fractional integrals. These constants are the smallest possible, which improves previously established results from the literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

For the second one, we apply the exp-function method to find new traveling wave solutions for a generalised conformable fractional partial differential equation, then some examples on Ostrovsky and KdV equations are given to illustrate the efficiency and accuracy of the method. Some graphs are plotted and discussed to show more the importance of the obtained results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this research work, time-delay adaptive synchronization and adaptive anti-synchronization of chaotic fractional order systems are analyzed via the Caputo fractional derivative, and the prob-lem of synchronization and anti-synchronization of chaotic systems of variable fractional order is solved by using the fractional order PID control law, the adaptive laws of variable-order frac-tional calculus, and a control law deduced from Lyapunov's theory extended to systems of time-delay variable-order fractional calculus. In this research work, two important problems are solved in the control area: The first problem is described in which deals with syn-chro-nization of chaotic systems of adaptive fractional order with time delay, this problem is solved by using the fractional order PID control law and adaptative laws. The second problem is de-scribed in which deals with anti-synchronization of chaotic systems of adaptive frac-tional order with time delay, and this problem is solved by using the fractional order PID con-trol law and adaptative laws.

In this article, we propose a method to solve the time‐fractional hyperbolic heat equation. We first formulate a boundary value problem for the standard hyperbolic heat equation in a finite domain and provide an analytical solution by means of separation of variables and Fourier series. Then, we consider the same boundary value problem for the fractional hyperbolic heat equation. The fractional problem is solved using three different definitions of the fractional derivative: the Caputo fractional derivative and two recently defined alternative versions of this derivative, the Caputo–Fabrizio and the Atangana–Baleanu. A closed form of the solution is provided for each case. Finally, we compare the solutions of the fractional and the standard problem and show numerically that the solution of the standard hyperbolic heat equation can be retrieved from the solution of the fractional equation in the limit γ→2, where γ represents the exponent of the fractional derivative.

In this work, we investigate analytically the solutions of a nonlinear div-curl system with fractional derivatives of the Riemann-Liouville or Caputo types. To this end, the fractional-order vector operators of divergence, curl and gradient are identified as components of the fractional Dirac operator in quaternionic form. As one of the most important results of this manuscript, we derive general solutions of some non-homogeneous div-curl systems that consider the presence of fractional-order derivatives of the Riemann-Liouville or Caputo types. A fractional analogous to the Teodorescu transform is presented in this work, and we employ some properties of its component operators, developed in this work to establish a generalization of the Helmholtz decomposition theorem in fractional space. Additionally, right inverses of the fractional-order curl, divergence and gradient vector operators are obtained using Riemann-Liouville and Caputo fractional operators. Finally, some consequences of these results are provided as applications at the end of this work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

To complete the discussion, the convergence theorem is subsequently expressed in detail. So far, no paper has used the Harr wavelet method using generalized difference and fuzzy derivatives, and this is the first time we have done so. Finally, the presented examples reflect the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract This work deals with the generalization of the Lorentz model. It is made using the Caputo fractional derivative of order 0 < γ ≤ 1 in the frequency domain. The fractional complex dielectric function, index of refraction, reflectance, electric susceptibility were obtained. It is shown that all of them depend not only on the frequency of applied field, but also on the fractional order of the differential equation 0 < γ ≤ 1. This opens the possibility to describe more accurately the experimental results in complex systems. The ordinary results are obtained when γ = 1. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract In this paper, a new fractional derivative of the Caputo type is proposed and some basic properties are studied. The form of the definition shows that the new derivative is the natural extension of the Caputo one, and that it yields the Caputo derivative with designated memory length. By adaptively changing the memory length, the new definition is capable of capturing local memory effect in a distinct way, which is critical in modelling complex systems where the short memory properties has to be considered. Another attractive property of the new derivative is that it is naturally associated with the Riemann–Liouville definition and as a result, the well established Grünwald–Letnikov approach for numerically solving the fractional differential equation can be readily embedded to approximate the solution of differential equation that involves the new derivatives. Numerical simulations demonstrate the changeable memory effect of the new definition. Highlights • The paper presents a new fractional derivative of the Caputo type. • Some important properties and integral transform of the new derivative is derived. • The new derivative offers particular value for capturing the local memory effect.

This paper is devoted to the application of the method of lines to solve one-dimensional diffusion equation where the classical (integer) second derivative is replaced by a fractional derivative of the Caputo type of order α less than 2 as the space derivative. A system of initial value problems approximates the solution of the fractional diffusion equation with spline approximation of the Caputo derivative. The result is a numerical approach of order O ( Δ x 2 + Δ t m ) , where Δx and Δt denote spatial and temporal step-sizes, and 1 ≤  m  ≤ 5 is an integer which is set by an ODE integrator that we used. The convergence and numerical stability of the method are considered, and numerical tests to investigate the efficiency and feasibility of the scheme are provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, the approximate analytic solution of any order space-time fractional differential equations is constructed by means of semi-analytical method, named as residual power series method (RPSM). The first step is to reduce space-time fractional differential equation to either a space fractional differential equations or a time fractional differential equations before applying RSPM. The main step is to obtain fractional power series solutions by RSPM. At the final step, it is shown that RPSM is very efficacious, plain and powerful for obtaining the solution of any-order space-time fractional differential equations in the form of fractional power series by illustrative examples.

Bees are the main contributors of pollination and it is predicted that disruption of pollination causes some serious problems in economics, agriculture and ecology. It has been reported that honeybee colony collapse has increased dramatically for some time in different parts of the world. In order to investigate the causes of colony collapse, we establish a fractional multi-order honeybee colony population model. Two different models with Caputo and Caputo–Fabrizio differentiation operators have been compared. We justify the existence and uniqueness of the solution. Stability analysis has been presented. We find the numerical values of the fractional order ( p , q ) so that the numerical results are close to the experimental findings more than the integer-order case. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We propose a generalized definition of Caputo derivatives from t = 0 of order γ∈in (0, 1) using a convolution group, and we build a convenient framework for studying initial value problems of general nonlinear time fractional differential equations. Our strategy is to define a modified Riemann-Liouville fractional calculus which agrees with the traditional Riemann-Liouville definition for t > 0 but includes some singularities at t = 0 so that the group property holds. Then, making use of this fractional calculus, we introduce the generalized definition of Caputo derivatives. The new definition is consistent with various definitions in the literature while revealing the underlying group structure. The underlying group property makes many properties of Caputo derivatives natural. In particular, it allows us to deconvolve the fractional differential equations to integral equations with completely monotone kernels, which then enables us to prove the general comparison principle with the most general conditions. This then allows for a priori energy estimates of fractional PDEs. Since the new definition is valid for locally integrable functions that can blow up in finite time, it provides a framework for solutions to fractional ODEs and fractional PDEs. Many fundamental results for fractional ODEs are revisited within this framework under very weak conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

As a result, we find that the data raised from the Caputo derivative are better than the data raised from the Grünwald-Letnnikov derivative. We improve the previous result in [12].

The resultant systems of algebraic equations, truncation error, convergence, and stability are analyzed. Theoretical analysis and numerical examples show this constructed method enjoys accuracy of, wheredis the degree of the rational polynomial. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we present a hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method for solving a class of fractional boundary value problems involving Caputo derivatives. The HDG methods have the computational advantage of eliminating all internal degrees of freedom and the only globally coupled unknowns are those at the element interfaces. Furthermore, the global stiffness matrix is tridiagonal, symmetric, and positive definite. Internal degrees of freedom are recovered at an element-by-element postprocessing step. We carry out a series of numerical experiments to ascertain the performance of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper describes an algorithm for reconstruction the boundary condition and order of derivative for the heat conduction equation of fractional order. This fractional order derivative was applied to time variable and was defined as the Caputo derivative. The heat transfer coefficient, occurring in the boundary condition of the third kind, was reconstructed. Additional information for the considered inverse problem is given by the temperature measurements at selected points of the domain. The direct problem was solved by using the implicit finite difference method. To minimize functional defining the error of approximate solution an Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm and Nelder-Mead method were used. In order to stabilize the procedure the Tikhonov regularization was applied. The paper presents examples to illustrate the accuracy and stability of the presented algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we apply the classical control theory to a fractional differential system in a bounded domain. The fractional optimal control problem (FOCP) for differential system with time delay is considered. The fractional time derivative is considered in a Riemann-Liouville sense. We first study the existence and the uniqueness of the solution of the fractional differential system with time delay in a Hilbert space. Then we show that the considered optimal control problem has a unique solution. The performance index of a FOCP is considered as a function of both state and control variables, and the dynamic constraints are expressed by a partial fractional differential equation. The time horizon is fixed. Finally, we impose some constraints on the boundary control. Interpreting the Euler-Lagrange first order optimality condition with an adjoint problem defined by means of a right fractional Caputo derivative, we obtain an optimality system for the optimal control. Some examples are analyzed in detail. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
