Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Fractional calculus has a very particular two-sided characteristic; on the one hand it is as old as ordinary (integer) calculus and on the other, in the last 40 years it has multiplied its applications in a wide range of areas and dissimilar themes. As a result, the number of researchers and publications is constantly increasing year after year, from biological models to integral inequalities, passing through systems with delay, neutrals, hybrids, etc. The applications have multiplied in this interaction between specialists from different areas and the mathematicians themselves who use these tools in their theoretical investigations.

All of the above means that we can work not only with integral operators of the Riemann–Liouville type, but also with differential operators of Caputo or Riemann–Liouville type and their generalizations, which can consider a great variety of mathematical tools whose effectiveness has been proven in a wide variety of problems.

Consequently, new results are continually being produced which involve more generalized integral operators and fractional differentials of a new type, which broaden the horizons of this area to unsuspected limits.

We propose here a general framework covering a wide range of fractional operators for vector-valued functions. We indicate to what extent the case in which assumptions are expressed in terms of weak topology is symmetric to the case of norm topology. However, taking advantage of the differences between these cases, we emphasize the possibly less-restrictive growth conditions. In fact, we present a definition and a serious study of generalized Hilfer fractional derivatives. We propose a new version of calculus for generalized Hilfer fractional derivatives for vector-valued functions, which generalizes previously studied cases, including those for real functions. Note that generalized Hilfer fractional differential operators in terms of weak topology are studied here for the first time, so our results are new. Finally, as an application example, we study some n-point boundary value problems with just-introduced general fractional derivatives and with boundary integral conditions expressed in terms of fractional integrals of the same kind, extending all known cases of studies in weak topology.

This paper studies the uniqueness of the bounded solution to a new Cauchy problem of the fractional nonlinear partial integro-differential equation based on the multivariate Mittag–Leffler function as well as Banach’s contractive principle in a complete function space. Applying Babenko’s approach, we convert the fractional nonlinear equation with variable coefficients to an implicit integral equation, which is a powerful method of studying the uniqueness of solutions. Furthermore, we construct algorithms for finding analytic and approximate solutions using Adomian’s decomposition method and recurrence relation with the order convergence analysis. Finally, an illustrative example is presented to demonstrate constructions for the numerical solution using MATHEMATICA. Full article

Lévy walks represent important modeling tools for a variety of real-life processes. Their natural scaling limits are known to be described by the so-called material fractional derivatives. So far, these scaling limits have been derived for spatially homogeneous walks, where Fourier and Laplace transforms represent natural tools of analysis. Here, we derive the corresponding limiting equations in the case of position-depending times and velocities of walks, where Fourier transforms cannot be effectively applied. In fact, we derive three different limits (specified by the way the process is stopped at an attempt to cross the boundary), leading to three different multi-dimensional versions of Caputo–Dzherbashian derivatives, which correspond to different boundary conditions for the generators of the related Feller semigroups and processes. Some other extensions and generalizations are analyzed. Full article

This article describes an approximation technique based on fractional order Bernstein wavelets for the numerical simulations of fractional oscillation equations under variable order, and the fractional order Bernstein wavelets are derived by means of fractional Bernstein polynomials. The oscillation equation describes electrical circuits and exhibits a wide range of nonlinear dynamical behaviors. The proposed variable order model is of current interest in a lot of application areas in engineering and applied sciences. The purpose of this study is to analyze the behavior of the fractional force-free and forced oscillation equations under the variable-order fractional operator. The basic idea behind using the approximation technique is that it converts the proposed model into non-linear algebraic equations with the help of collocation nodes for easy computation. Different cases of the proposed model are examined under the selected variable order parameters for the first time in order to show the precision and performance of the mentioned scheme. The dynamic behavior and results are presented via tables and graphs to ensure the validity of the mentioned scheme. Further, the behavior of the obtained solutions for the variable order is also depicted. From the calculated results, it is observed that the mentioned scheme is extremely simple and efficient for examining the behavior of nonlinear random (constant or variable) order fractional models occurring in engineering and science.

This article presents a new q-analog integral operator, which generalizes the q-Srivastava–Attiya operator. Using this q-analog operator, we define a family of analytic non-Bazilevič functions, denoted as Tq,τ+1,uμ(ϑ,λ,M,N). Furthermore, we investigate the differential subordination properties of univalent functions using q-calculus, which includes the best dominance, best subordination, and sandwich-type properties. Our results are proven using specialized techniques in differential subordination theory. Full article

The aim of this article is to establish a stochastic search algorithm for neural networks based on the fractional stochastic processes {BtH,t0} with the Hurst parameter H(0,1). We define and discuss the properties of fractional stochastic processes, {BtH,t0}, which generalize a standard Brownian motion. Fractional stochastic processes capture useful yet different properties in order to simulate real-world phenomena. This approach provides new insights to stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithms in machine learning. We exhibit convergence properties for fractional stochastic processes. Full article

This study investigates the multistability phenomenon and coexisting attractors in the modified Autonomous Van der Pol-Duffing (MAVPD) system and its fractional-order form. The analytical conditions for existence of periodic solutions in the integer-order system via Hopf bifurcation are discussed. In addition, conditions for approximating the solutions of the fractional version to periodic solutions are obtained via the Hopf bifurcation theory in fractional-order systems. Moreover, the technique for hidden attractors localization in the integer-order MAVPD is provided. Therefore, motivated by the previous discussion, the appearances of self-excited and hidden attractors are explained in the integer- and fractional-order MAVPD systems. Phase transition of quasi-periodic hidden attractors between the integer- and fractional-order MAVPD systems is observed. Throughout this study, the existence of complex dynamics is also justified using some effective numerical measures such as Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagrams and basin sets of attraction.

In this article, we study the existence and uniqueness of multiple positive periodic solutions for a Gilpin–Ayala predator-prey model under consideration by applying asymptotically periodic functions. The result of this paper is completely new. By using Comparison Theorem and some technical analysis, we showed that the classical nonlinear fractional model is bounded. The Banach contraction mapping principle was used to prove that the model has a unique positive asymptotical periodic solution.

This paper proposes a new fractional-order model reference adaptive control (FOMRAC) framework for a fractional-order multivariable system with parameter uncertainty. The designed FOMRAC scheme depends on a fractional-order nonlinear scalar update law. Specifically, the scalar update law does not change as the input–output dimension changes. The main advantage of the proposed adaptive controller is that only one parameter online update is needed such that the computational burden in the existing FOMRAC can be relieved. Furthermore, we show that all signals in this adaptive scheme are bounded and the mean value of the squared norm of the error converges to zero. Two illustrative numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed control scheme. Full article

After that, by considering the set D+1,θD,θ, which are subsets of (1,2), we will extend our previous result to make the relationship between the sign of Δc0βy(z) and Δy(z)>0 (the monotonicity of y), where Δc0βy(z) will be assumed to be negative for each zNc0T:={c0,c0+1,c0+2,,T} and some TNc0:={c0,c0+1,c0+2,}.

Few studies have investigated the existence and uniqueness of solutions for fractional differential equations on star graphs until now. The published papers on the topic are based on the assumption of existence of one junction node and some boundary nodes as the origin on a star graph. These structures are special cases and do not cover more general non-star graph structures. In this paper, we state a labeling method for graph vertices, and then we prove the existence results for solutions to a new family of fractional boundary value problems (FBVPs) on the methylpropane graph. We design the chemical compound of the methylpropane graph with vertices specified by 0 or 1, and on every edge of the graph, we consider fractional differential equations. We prove the existence of solutions for the proposed FBVPs by means of the Krasnoselskii’s and Scheafer’s fixed point theorems, and further, we study the Ulam–Hyers type stability for the given multi-dimensional system. Finally, we provide an illustrative example to examine our results. Full article

Then, utilizing these equalities, we derive some new variants for midpoint- and trapezoid-type inequalities for the right-quantum integral via differentiable (α,m)-convex functions. The fundamental benefit of these inequalities is that they may be transformed into q-midpoint- and q-trapezoid-type inequalities for convex functions, classical midpoint inequalities for convex functions and classical trapezoid-type inequalities for convex functions are transformed without having to prove each one independently. In addition, we present some applications of our results to special means of positive real numbers. It is expected that the ideas and techniques may stimulate further research in this field.

In this article, firstly, we establish a novel definition of weighted interval-valued fractional integrals of a function Υ˘ using an another function ϑ(ζ˙). As an additional observation, it is noted that the new class of weighted interval-valued fractional integrals of a function Υ˘ by employing an additional function ϑ(ζ˙) characterizes a variety of new classes as special cases, which is a generalization of the previous class. Secondly, we prove a new version of the Hermite-Hadamard-Fejér type inequality for h-convex interval-valued functions using weighted interval-valued fractional integrals of a function Υ˘ according to another function ϑ(ζ˙). Finally, by using weighted interval-valued fractional integrals of a function Υ˘ according to another function ϑ(ζ˙), we are establishing a new Hermite-Hadamard-Fejér type inequality for harmonically h-convex interval-valued functions that is not previously known. Moreover, some examples are provided to demonstrate our results. Full article

In this paper, we first establish two right-quantum integral equalities involving a right-quantum derivative and a parameter m 0,1. Then, we prove modified versions of Simpson’s and Newton’s type inequalities using established equalities for right-quantum differentiable α,m-convex functions. The newly developed inequalities are also proven to be expansions of comparable inequalities found in the literature. Full article
