On fractional Schrödinger equation in α-dimensional fractional space

The Schrödinger equation is solved in $\alpha$-dimensional fractional space with a Coulomb potential proportional to $\frac{1}{r^{\beta ?2}}$, $2\le \beta \le 4$. The wave functions are studied in terms of spatial dimensionality $\alpha$ and $\beta$ and the results for $\beta =3$ are compared with those obtained in the literature.     

Cauchy problems for fractional differential equations with Riemann–Liouville fractional derivatives

In this paper, we are concerned with Cauchy problems of fractional differential equations with Riemann–Liouville fractional derivatives in infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. We introduce the notion of fractional resolvent, obtain some its properties, and present a generation theorem for exponentially bounded fractional resolvents. Moreover, we prove that a homogeneous α-order Cauchy problem is well posed if and only if its coefficient operator is the generator of an α-order fractional resolvent, and we give sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions and strong solutions of an inhomogeneous α-order Cauchy problem.     

On fractional Poincaré inequalities

We show that fractional (p, p)-Poincaré inequalities and even fractional Sobolev-Poincaré inequalities hold for bounded John domains, and especially for bounded Lipschitz domains. We also prove sharp fractional (1,p)-Poincaré inequalities for s-John domains.     

Positive solutions for fractional differential systems with nonlocal Riemann–Liouville fractional integral boundary conditions

In this paper, we study the positive solutions of fractional differential system with coupled nonlocal Riemann–Liouville fractional integral boundary conditions. Our analysis relies on Leggett–Williams and Guo–Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorems. Two examples are worked out to illustrate our main results.     

Hilbert–Pachpatte type fractional integral inequalities

We present here very general weighted univariate and multivariate Hilbert–Pachpatte type integral inequalities. These involve Caputo and Riemann–Liouville fractional derivatives and fractional partial derivatives of the mentioned types.     

Strong capacity-estimates for “fractional” norms

It is proved that for all fractionall the integral \(\int\limits_0^\infty {(p,\ell ) - cap(M_t )} dt^p\) is majorized by the P-th power norm of the functionu in the space ? _p ^l (Rⁿ) (here M_t={x∶¦u(x)¦?t} and (p,l)-cap(e) is the (p,l)-capacity of the compactum e?Rⁿ). Similar results are obtained for the spaces W _p ^l (Rⁿ) and the spaces of M. Riesz and Bessel potentials. One considers consequences regarding imbedding theorems of “fractional” spaces in ?_q(dμ), whereμ is a nonnegative measure in Rⁿ. One considers specially the case p=1.     

Stabilization of fractional bilinear systems with multiple inputs

In this paper, we study in a constructive way the stabilization problem of fractional bilinear systems with multiple inputs. Using the quadratic Lyapunov functions and some additional hypotheses on the unit sphere, we construct stabilizing feedback laws for the considered fractional bilinear system. A numerical example is given to illustrate the efficiency of the obtained result.     

Space–time fractional diffusion on bounded domains

Fractional diffusion equations replace the integer-order derivatives in space and time by their fractional-order analogues. They are used in physics to model anomalous diffusion. This paper develops strong solutions of space–time fractional diffusion equations on bounded domains, as well as probabilistic representations of these solutions, which are useful for particle tracking codes.     

Homogenization in fractional elasticity – One spatial dimension

In this note we treat the equations of fractional elasticity in one spatial dimension. After establishing well-posedness, we use an abstract result in the theory of homogenization to derive effective equations in fractional elasticity with highly oscillating coefficients. The approach also permits the consideration of non-local operators (in time and space). (© 2013 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Nonsmooth minimax fractional programming involving η-pseudolinear functions

This article deals with the necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for a class of nonsmooth minimax fractional programming problems with locally Lipschitz η-pseudolinear functions. Utilizing these optimality criteria, we formulate two types of dual models and establish weak and strong duality results. The results of this article extend several known results from the literature to a wider class of optimization problems.     

Soliton dynamics for fractional Schrödinger equations

We investigate the soliton dynamics for the fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equation by a suitable modulational inequality. In the semiclassical limit, the solution concentrates along a trajectory determined by a Newtonian equation depending of the fractional diffusion parameter.     

Characterization for commutators of n-dimensional fractional Hardy operators

In this paper, it was proved that the commutator Hβ,b generated by an n-dimensional fractional Hardy operator and a locally integrable function b is bounded from Lp1(Rn) to Lp2 (Rn) if and only if b is a C(M)O(Rn) function, where 1/p1 - 1/p2 = β/n, 1 ＜ p1 ＜∞, 0 ≤β＜ n. Furthemore,the characterization of Hβ,b on the homogenous Herz space (K)qα,p(Rn) was obtained.     

Koksma–Hlawka type inequalities of fractional order

The Koksma–Hlawka inequality states that the error of numerical integration by a quasi-Monte Carlo rule is bounded above by the variation of the function times the star-discrepancy. In practical applications though functions often do not have bounded variation. Hence here we relax the smoothness assumptions required in the Koksma–Hlawka inequality. We introduce Banach spaces of functions whose fractional derivative of order is in . We show that if α is an integer and p = 2 then one obtains the usual Sobolev space. Using these fractional Banach spaces we generalize the Koksma–Hlawka inequality to functions whose partial fractional derivatives are in . Hence we can also obtain an upper bound on the integration error even for certain functions which do not have bounded variation but satisfy weaker smoothness conditions.      

Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of κ-Caputo fractional differential equations

The paper is connected with the existence of solutions and Hyers-Ulam stability for a class of nonlinear fractional differential equations with κ-Caputo fractional derivative in boundary value problems. The existence and uniqueness results are obtained by utilizing the Banach fixed point theorem and Leray-Schauder nonlinear alternative theorem. In addition, two sufficient conditions to guarantee the Hyers-Ulam stability and the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of boundary value problems of fractional differential equations are also presented. Finally, theoretical results are illustrated by two numerical examples.     

Numerical approach for solving fractional relaxation–oscillation equation

In this study, we will obtain the approximate solutions of relaxation–oscillation equation by developing the Taylor matrix method. A relaxation oscillator is a kind of oscillator based on a behavior of physical system’s return to equilibrium after being disturbed. The relaxation–oscillation equation is the primary equation of relaxation and oscillation processes. The relaxation–oscillation equation is a fractional differential equation with initial conditions. For this propose, generalized Taylor matrix method is introduced. This method is based on first taking the truncated fractional Taylor expansions of the functions in the relaxation–oscillation equation and then substituting their matrix forms into the equation. Hence, the result matrix equation can be solved and the unknown fractional Taylor coefficients can be found approximately. The reliability and efficiency of the proposed approach are demonstrated in the numerical examples with aid of symbolic algebra program, Maple.
