Numerical solution of fractional differential equations by using fractional B-spline

In this paper, we present fractional B-spline collocation method for the numerical solution of fractional differential equations. We consider this method for solving linear fractional differential equations which involve Caputo-type fractional derivatives. The numerical results demonstrate that the method is efficient and quite accurate and it requires relatively less computational work. For this reason one can conclude that this method has advantage on other methods and hence demonstrates the importance of this work.     

Matrix approach to discrete fractional calculus II: Partial fractional differential equations

A new method that enables easy and convenient discretization of partial differential equations with derivatives of arbitrary real order (so-called fractional derivatives) and delays is presented and illustrated on numerical solution of various types of fractional diffusion equation. The suggested method is the development of Podlubny’s matrix approach [I. Podlubny, Matrix approach to discrete fractional calculus, Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis 3 (4) (2000) 359–386]. Four examples of numerical solution of fractional diffusion equation with various combinations of time-/space-fractional derivatives (integer/integer, fractional/integer, integer/fractional, and fractional/fractional) with respect to time and to the spatial variable are provided in order to illustrate how simple and general is the suggested approach. The fifth example illustrates that the method can be equally simply used for fractional differential equations with delays. A set of MATLAB routines for the implementation of the method as well as sample code used to solve the examples have been developed.     

Abundant fractional soliton solutions of a space-time fractional perturbed Gerdjikov-Ivanov equation by a fractional mapping method

A new fractional mapping method based on a generalized fractional auxiliary equation is proposed and applied to solve the space-time fractional perturbed Gerdjikov-Ivanov equation. The main feature of this approach is to obtain more accurate solutions by means of an auxiliary equation. Some exact fractional nonlinear wave solutions, including bright soliton, periodical wave and singularity soliton solutions are constructed by Mittag–Leffler function. Some deformations appear in those fractional nonlinear wave solutions, and those deformations become more obvious with the increase of the fractional order parameter. In addition, the coefficient of group velocity dispersion and the self-steepening for short pulses also affect the intensity of the soliton when the fractional order parameter remains unchanged. The effect of fractional order is explained by the graphical representation of a series of solutions and their physical meanings.     

Numerical approaches to fractional calculus and fractional ordinary differential equation

Nowadays, fractional calculus are used to model various different phenomena in nature, but due to the non-local property of the fractional derivative, it still remains a lot of improvements in the present numerical approaches. In this paper, some new numerical approaches based on piecewise interpolation for fractional calculus, and some new improved approaches based on the Simpson method for the fractional differential equations are proposed. We use higher order piecewise interpolation polynomial to approximate the fractional integral and fractional derivatives, and use the Simpson method to design a higher order algorithm for the fractional differential equations. Error analyses and stability analyses are also given, and the numerical results show that these constructed numerical approaches are efficient.

Sampling of fractional bandlimited signals associated with fractional Fourier transform

Fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) plays an important role in many fields of optics and signal processing. This paper considers the problem of reconstructing a fractional bandlimited signal with FRFT. We propose a novel reconstruction method for fractional bandlimited signals using the fractional Fourier series (FRFS). The advantage is that the sampling expansion can be deduced directly not based on the Shannon theorem. By utilizing the generalized form of Parseval’s relation for complex FRFS, we obtain the sampling expansion for fractional bandlimited signals with FRFT. We show that the sampling expansion for fractional bandlimited signals with FRFT is a special case of Parseval’s relation for complex FRFS.
