Treelike comparability graphs

An undirected graph is a treelike comparability graph if it admits a transitive orientation such that its transitive reduction is a tree. We show that treelike comparability graphs are distance hereditary. Utilizing this property, we give a linear time recognition algorithm. We then characterize permutation graphs that are treelike. Finally, we consider the Partitioning into Bounded Cliques problem on special subgraphs of treelike permutation graphs.     

Remarks on the controllability of fractional differential equations

In this paper, we study the approximate controllability of a linear fractional differential equation by using the method of regularization of Tikhonov. New concepts and results about controllability are established. Then, under the condition of the positivity of the controllability operator, we obtain that the linear system can be steered to an arbitrary small neighbourhood of the fractional integral of the state at final time.     

Nonsymmetric and symmetric fractional calculi on arbitrary nonempty closed sets

We introduce a nabla, a delta, and a symmetric fractional calculus on arbitrary nonempty closed subsets of the real numbers. These fractional calculi provide a study of differentiation and integration of non‐integer order on discrete, continuous, and hybrid settings. Main properties of the new fractional operators are investigated and some fundamental results presented, illustrating the interplay between discrete and continuous behaviors.

Exact solutions for fractional DDEs via auxiliary equation method coupled with the fractional complex transform

Dynamical behavior of many nonlinear systems can be described by fractional‐order equations. This study is devoted to fractional differential–difference equations of rational type. Our focus is on the construction of exact solutions by means of the (G'/G)‐expansion method coupled with the so‐called fractional complex transform. The solution procedure is elucidated through two generalized time‐fractional differential–difference equations of rational type. As a result, three types of discrete solutions emerged: hyperbolic, trigonometric, and rational. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A simplex algorithm for piecewise-linear fractional programming problems

Generalizations of the well-known simplex method for linear programming are available to solve the piecewise linear programming problem and the linear fractional programming problem. In this paper we consider a further generalization of the simplex method to solve piecewise linear fractional programming problems unifying the simplex method for linear programs, piecewise linear programs, and the linear fractional programs. Computational results are presented to obtain further insights into the behavior of the algorithm on random test problems.     

Stochastic Evolution Equations Driven by a Fractional White Noise

Abstract

In this paper we study stochastic evolution equations driven by a fractional white noise with arbitrary Hurst parameter in infinite dimension. We establish the existence and uniqueness of a mild solution for a nonlinear equation with multiplicative noise under Lipschitz condition by using a fixed point argument in an appropriate inductive limit space. In the linear case with additive noise, a strong solution is obtained. Those results are applied to stochastic parabolic partial differential equations perturbed by a fractional white noise.     

The operational matrix of fractional integration for shifted Chebyshev polynomials

A new shifted Chebyshev operational matrix (SCOM) of fractional integration of arbitrary order is introduced and applied together with spectral tau method for solving linear fractional differential equations (FDEs). The fractional integration is described in the Riemann–Liouville sense. The numerical approach is based on the shifted Chebyshev tau method. The main characteristic behind the approach using this technique is that only a small number of shifted Chebyshev polynomials is needed to obtain a satisfactory result. Illustrative examples reveal that the present method is very effective and convenient for linear multi-term FDEs.     

Stability and chaos control of regularized Prabhakar fractional dynamical systems without and with delay

In this paper, we studied the stabilization of nonlinear regularized Prabhakar fractional dynamical systems without and with time delay. We establish a Lyapunov stabiliy theorem for these systems and study the asymptotic stability of these systems without design a positive definite function V (without considering the fractional derivative of function V is negative). We design a linear feedback controller to control and stabilize the nonautonomous and autonomous chaotic regularized Prabhakar fractional dynamical systems without and with time delay. By means of the Lyapunov stability, we obtain the control parameters for these type of systems. We further present a numerical method to solve and analyze regularized Prabhakar fractional systems. Furthermore, by employing numerical simulation, we reveal chaotic attractors and asymptotic stability behaviors for four systems to illustrate the presented theorem.

In this paper, we discuss the inverse problem for Sturm–Liouville operators with arbitrary number of interior discontinuities and boundary conditions having fractional linear function of spectral parameter on the finite interval [0,1]. Using Weyl function techniques, we establish some uniqueness theorems for the Sturm–Liouville operator. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

The Bäcklund transformations and abundant explicit exact solutions for the AKNS–SWW equation

The Bäcklund transformations and abundant explicit exact solutions to the AKNS shallow water wave equation are obtained by combining the extended homogeneous balance method with the extended hyperbolic function method. The solutions obtained admit of multiple arbitrary parameters. These solutions include (a) a compound of the rational fractional function and a linear function, (b) a compound of solitary wave solution and a linear function, (c) a compound of the singular travelling wave solutions and a linear function, and (d) a compound of the periodic wave solutions of triangle function and a linear function. In special cases, we can obtain a series of soliton solutions, singular travelling wave solutions, periodic travelling wave solutions, and rational fractional function solution. In addition to re-deriving some known solutions in a systematic way, some brand-new exact solutions are also established.     

Disjoint hypercyclic linear fractional composition operators

We characterize disjoint hypercyclicity and disjoint supercyclicity of finitely many linear fractional composition operators acting on spaces of holomorphic functions on the unit disc, answering a question of Bernal-González. We also study mixing and disjoint mixing behavior of projective limits of endomorphisms of a projective spectrum. In particular, we show that a linear fractional composition operator is mixing on the projective limit of the Sv spaces strictly containing the Dirichlet space if and only if the operator is mixing on the Hardy space.

The discontinuous Galerkin method for fractional degenerate convection-diffusion equations

We propose and study discontinuous Galerkin methods for strongly degenerate convection-diffusion equations perturbed by a fractional diffusion (Lévy) operator. We prove various stability estimates along with convergence results toward properly defined (entropy) solutions of linear and nonlinear equations. Finally, the qualitative behavior of solutions of such equations are illustrated through numerical experiments.     

On a solution to fractional order integrodifferential equations with analytic semigroups

Steady-state,self-oscillating and chaotic behavior of a PID controlled nonlinear servomechanism by using Bogdanov–Takens and Andronov–Poincaré–Hopf bifurcations

This paper analyzes a controlled servomechanism with feedback and a cubic nonlinearity by means of the Bogdanov–Takens and Andronov–Poincaré–Hopf bifurcations, from which steady-state, self-oscillating and chaotic behaviors will be investigated using the center manifold theorem. The system controller is formed by a Proportional plus Integral plus Derivative action (PID) that allows to stabilize and drive to a prescribed set point a body connected to the shaft of a DC motor. The Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation is analyzed through the second Lyapunov stability method and the harmonic-balance method, whereas the first Lyapunov value is used for the Andronov–Poincaré–Hopf bifurcation. On the basis of the results deduced from the bifurcation analysis, we show a procedure to select the parameters of the PID controller so that an arbitrary steady-state position of the servomechanism can be reached even in presence of noise. We also show how chaotic behavior can be obtained by applying a harmonical external torque to the device in self-oscillating regime. The advantage of achieving chaotic behavior is that it can be used so that the system reaches a set point inside a strange attractor with a small control effort. The analytical calculations have been verified through detailed numerical simulations.     

Unique Continuation Property and Local Asymptotics of Solutions to Fractional Elliptic Equations

Asymptotics of solutions to fractional elliptic equations with Hardy type potentials is studied in this paper. By using an Almgren type monotonicity formula, separation of variables, and blow-up arguments, we describe the exact behavior near the singularity of solutions to linear and semilinear fractional elliptic equations with a homogeneous singular potential related to the fractional Hardy inequality. As a consequence we obtain unique continuation properties for fractional elliptic equations.
