In this paper, the pathway model for the real scalar variable case is re-explored and its connections to fractional integrals, solutions of fractional differential equations, Tsallis statistics and superstatistics in statistical mechanics, the reaction-rate probability integral, Krätzel transform, pathway transform, etc., are explored. It is shown that the common thread in these connections is their H-function representations. The pathway parameter is shown to be connected to the fractional order in fractional integrals and fractional differential equations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the present article, we prove some results concerning the existence of solutions for a class of initial value problems for nonlinear implicit fractional differential equations with non-instantaneous impulses and generalized Hilfer fractional derivative. The results are based on Banach contraction principle and Schaefer's fixed point theorem. Examples are included to show the applicability of our results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Using the coincidence degree theory of Mawhin and constructing appropriate operators, we investigate the existence of solutions to Hadamard fractional differential equations (FRDEs) at resonance ... where 1 < γ < 2, f: [1, e]×R² → R satisfies Carathéodory conditions, ∫e1 u(t)dA(t) is the Riemann-Stieltjes integration, and (HDγu) is the Hadamard fractional derivation of u of order γ. An example is included to illustrate our result. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we presented and proved a general Lyapunov's inequality for a class of fractional boundary problems (FBPs) involving a new fractional derivative, named λ-Hilfer. We proved a criterion of existence which extended that of Lyapunov concerning the ordinary case. We used this criterion to solve the fractional differential equation (FDE) subject to the Dirichlet boundary conditions. In order to do so, we invoked some properties and essential results of λ-Hilfer fractional boundary value problem (HFBVP). This result also retrieved all previous Lyapunov-type inequalities for different types of boundary conditions as mixed. The order that we considered here only focused on 1 < r ≤ 2. General Hartman-Wintner-type inequalities were also investigated. We presented an example in order to provide an application of this result. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, we propose a second‐order shifted composite numerical integral formula, which is denoted as the SCNIF2. We transform the nonlinear time fractional wave equation into a partial differential equation with a fractional integral term and use the SCNIF2 in time and the finite element algorithm in space to formulate a fully discrete scheme. In order to decrease the initial error of the numerical scheme, we add some starting parts. In addition, we prove the stability and error estimation of the algorithm. Finally, we illustrate the effect of the starting parts and the accuracy of the numerical scheme through some numerical tests. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we establish sufficient criteria for ensuring the existence of solutions and uniqueness for a class of nonlinear neutral Caputo fractional differential equations supplemented with infinite delay and nonlocal boundary conditions involving fractional derivatives. The theory of infinite delay and standard fixed point theorems are employed to obtain the existence results for the given problem. Examples will be constructed to illustrate the obtained results.

In this a Lyapunov‐type inequality is obtained for the fractional differential equation with Caputo derivative CDaγx(t)+q(t)x(t)=0,a

We study a novel fractional model of boundary value problems in the setting of Hilfer fractional derivative operators. Precisely, sequential Hilfer fractional differential equations and inclusions with integro-multistrip-multi-point boundary conditions are considered. Existence and uniqueness results are established for the proposed problems by using the techniques of fixed point theory. In the single-valued case, the classical theorems due to Banach and Krasnosel'skii are used, while the multi-valued case is investigated with the aid of Leray-Schauder nonlinear alternative for multi-valued maps, and Covitz and Nadler's fixed point theorem for multi-valued contractions. The obtained results are well-illustrated by numerical examples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work aims to introduce a theory of fractional calculus by using a map k(x) instead of x in the definitions of the classical derivative and the classical integral. The applicability of the results obtained is demonstrated using fractional differential equations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Λ-fractional differential equations are discussed since they exhibit non-locality and accuracy. Fractional derivatives form fractional differential equations, considered as describing better various physical phenomena. Nevertheless, fractional derivatives fail to satisfy the prerequisites of differential topology for generating differentials. Hence, all the sources of generating fractional differential equations, such as fractional differential geometry, the fractional calculus of variations, and the fractional field theory, are not mathematically accurate. Nevertheless, the Λ-fractional derivative conforms to all prerequisites demanded by differential topology. Hence, the various mathematical forms, including those derivatives, do not lack the mathematical accuracy or defects of the well-known fractional derivatives. A summary of the Λ-fractional analysis is presented with its influence on the sources of differential equations, such as fractional differential geometry, field theorems, and calculus of variations. Λ-fractional ordinary and partial differential equations will be discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we study the analytical solutions of two-dimensional fractional-order linear system Dαt X(t) = AX(t) described by fractional differential equations, where D is the fractional derivative in the Caputo-Fabrizio sense and A = (ai j)2x2 is nonsingular coefficient matrix with aij ∈ R. The analytical solutions of fractional-order linear system will be compared to the solution of classical linear system. Examples are provided to characterize the behavior of the solutions for fractional-order linear system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this work, we establish the existence and uniqueness of solutions for a fractional stochastic differential equation driven by countably many Brownian motions on bounded and unbounded intervals. Also, we study the continuous dependence of solutions on initial data. Finally, we establish the transportation quadratic cost inequality for some classes of fractional stochastic equations and continuous dependence of solutions with respect Wasserstein distance.

In this paper, we use a new technique for the treatment of systems based on the advantage of vector-valued norms and of the weak topology. We first present vector versions of the Leray-Schauder alternative and then some Krasnoselskii type fixed point theorems for a sum of two mappings. Applications are given to a system of nonlinear transport equations, and systems of mixed fractional differential equations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This review paper focuses on the evolution of the conformable derivative. The review starts with expressing the idea behind the first research on the so-called conformable fractional derivative and examining some recent related papers. Then it continues mentioning some opposing papers which argue that the so-called conformable fractional derivative is actually not a fractional derivative because it lacks some of the agreed upon properties for fractional derivatives. The paper is closed by discussing another point of view on the theory of conformable derivatives. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this paper is to present a new version of the Bihari inequality with singular kernel and give a simple proof of the fractional Gronwall lemma. Our new ideas rest on the use of Young's and Hölder's inequalities to simplify the complex inequalities. Based on this new type of Bihari inequality we can relax many results of fractional differential equations and inclusions and stochastic differential equations. Also, the obtained inequalities can be used to analyze a specific class of fractional differential equations, both linear and nonlinear. Using the Caputo fractional derivative, the study of an initial valued problem for a fractional differential equation provides some topological proprieties for the solution set, and shows it is the intersection of a decreasing sequence of compact nonempty contractible spaces. We extend the classical Kneser's theorem on the solution structure of the ordinary differential equation and relax some results about the fractional differential equation. Also, we establish existence results for Caputo fractional stochastic differential equations. Finally, we study the existence of solution for fractional differential inclusion in Banach lattice.
