Modeling and character analyzing of multiple fractional-order memcapacitors in parallel connection

Recently,the memory elements-based circuits have been addressed frequently in the nonlinear circuit theory due to their unique behaviors.Thus,the modeling and characterizing of the mem-elements become essential.In this paper,the analysis of the multiple fractional-order voltage-controlled memcapacitors model in parallel connection is studied.Firstly,two fractional-order memcapacitors are connected in parallel,the equivalent model is derived,and the characteristic of the equivalent memcapacitor is analyzed in positive or negative connection.Then a new understanding manner according to different rate factor K and fractional orderαis derived to explain the equivalent modeling structure conveniently.Additionally,the negative order appears,which is a consequence of the combination of memcapacitors in different directions.Meanwhile,the equivalent parallel memcapacitance has been drawn to determine that multiple fractional-order memcapacitors could be calculated as one composite memcapacitor.Thus,an arbitrary fractional-order equivalent memcapacitor could be constructed by multiple fractional-order memcapacitors.     

On the impulsive implicit Ψ-Hilfer fractional differential equations with delay

In this paper, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of solutions and derive the Ulam-Hyers-Mittag-Leffler stability results for impulsive implicit Ψ-Hilfer fractional differential equations with time delay. It is demonstrated that the Ulam-Hyers and generalized Ulam-Hyers stability are the specific cases of Ulam-Hyers-Mittag-Leffler stability. Extended version of the Gronwall inequality, abstract Gronwall lemma, and Picard operator theory are the primary devices in our investigation. We provide an example to illustrate the obtained results.     

Fractional powers of the noncommutative Fourier's law by the S‐spectrum approach

Let e_?, for ? = 1,2,3, be orthogonal unit vectors in and let be a bounded open set with smooth boundary ?Ω. Denoting by a point in Ω, the heat equation, for nonhomogeneous materials, is obtained replacing the Fourier law, given by the following: into the conservation of energy law, here a, b, are given functions. With the S‐spectrum approach to fractional diffusion processes we determine, in a suitable way, the fractional powers of T. Then, roughly speaking, we replace the fractional powers of T into the conservation of energy law to obtain the fractional evolution equation. This method is important for nonhomogeneous materials where the Fourier law is not simply the negative gradient. In this paper, we determine under which conditions on the coefficients a, b, the fractional powers of T exist in the sense of the S‐spectrum approach. More in general, this theory allows to compute the fractional powers of vector operators that arise in different fields of science and technology. This paper is devoted to researchers working in fractional diffusion and fractional evolution problems, partial differential equations, and noncommutative operator theory.

A note on the eigenvalues of p‐fractional Hardy–Sobolev operator with indefinite weight

In this article, we study the eigenvalues of p‐fractional Hardy operator where , , , and Ω is an unbounded domain in with Lipschitz boundary containing 0. The weight function V may change sign and may have singular points. We also show that the least positive eigenvalue is simple and it is uniquely associated to a nonnegative eigenfunction. Moreover, we proved that there exists a sequence of eigenvalues as .     

Endpoint estimates for multilinear fractional integrals with non-doubling measures

Under the assumption that μ is a non-doubling measure on Rdwhich only satisfies the polynomial growth condition,the authors obtain the boundedness of the multilinear fractional integrals on Morrey spaces,weak-Morrey spaces and Lipschitz spaces associated with μ,which,in the case when μ is the d-dimensional Lebesgue measure,also improve the known results.     

On the existence of positive solutions of the p‐Laplacian dynamic equations on time scales

In this paper, we investigate the existence of positive solutions for a nonlinear m‐point boundary value problem for the p‐Laplacian dynamic equations on time scales, by applying a Krasnosel'skii's fixed point theorem. As an application, an example is included to demonstrate the main results. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Novel Mittag-Leffler stability of linear fractional delay difference equations with impulse

In this letter we propose a class of linear fractional difference equations with discrete-time delay and impulse effects. The exact solutions are obtained by use of a discrete Mittag-Leffler function with delay and impulse. Besides, we provide comparison principle, stability results and numerical illustration.     

On weighted spectral radius of unraveled balls and normalized Laplacian eigenvalues

For a graph G, the unraveled ball of radius r centered at a vertex v is the ball of radius r centered at v in the universal cover of G. We obtain a lower bound on the weighted spectral radius of unraveled balls of fixed radius in a graph with positive weights on edges, which is used to present an upper bound on the $s^{\text{th}}$ (where $s\ge 2$) smallest normalized Laplacian eigenvalue of irregular graphs under minor assumptions. Moreover, when $s=2$, the result may be regarded as an Alon–Boppana type bound for a class of irregular graphs.     

Fractional distribution of graphene oxide and its potential as an efficient and reusable solid catalyst for esterification reactions

Graphene oxide (GrO) prepared by the Hummers method was separated into three different fractions (GrO₅₀₀₀, GrO₂₀₀₀, and GrO_res) on the basis of their dispersion stability in the water. Infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and elemental analyses revealed that GrO₅₀₀₀ possesses a high degree of oxygen functionalities including phenolic, carboxylic, and ?OSO₂H groups, compared with the other fractions. The GrO₅₀₀₀ was found to be a highly efficient and reusable solid catalyst for the esterification of various carboxylic acids with a variety of alcohols to furnish corresponding esters in high to excellent yields. The catalytic activity of the GrO₅₀₀₀ was attributed to the ability of highly polar GrO₅₀₀₀ scaffold to adsorb/attract reactants, where the acid functionalities of GrO₅₀₀₀ facilitated the esterification process efficiently. The chemical and structural features of GrO₅₀₀₀ were discussed to understand the improved catalytic activity compared with GrO₂₀₀₀ and conventional solid acid catalysts.
