Fractional differential and integral operations via cumulative approach

In this study, a fractal operator model of cumulative processes is described. Accordingly, differential and integral operators of the fractional calculus are derived by the fractal operator model of a cumulative process. In order to exhibit the relation between our cumulative approach and fractional calculus, vertical motion of a body is handled within these frameworks. Thereby, regard to our assessments, the underlying physical mechanism of the success of the fractional differintegral operators in describing stochastic complex systems is uncovered to some extent.

A higher dimensional fractional Borel‐Pompeiu formula and a related hypercomplex fractional operator calculus

In this paper, we develop a fractional integro‐differential operator calculus for Clifford algebra‐valued functions. To do that, we introduce fractional analogues of the Teodorescu and Cauchy‐Bitsadze operators, and we investigate some of their mapping properties. As a main result, we prove a fractional Borel‐Pompeiu formula based on a fractional Stokes formula. This tool in hand allows us to present a Hodge‐type decomposition for the fractional Dirac operator. Our results exhibit an amazing duality relation between left and right operators and between Caputo and Riemann‐Liouville fractional derivatives. We round off this paper by presenting a direct application to the resolution of boundary value problems related to Laplace operators of fractional order.     

The finite difference method for the three-dimensional nonlinear coupled system of dynamics of fluids in porous media

For the three-dimensional coupled system of multilayer dynamics of fluids in porous media, the second-order upwind finite difference fractional steps schemes applicable to parallel arithmetic are put forward. Some techniques, such as calculus of variations, energy method, multiplicative commutation rule of difference operators, decomposition of high order difference operators and prior estimates are adopted. Optimal order estimates in l2 norm are derived to determine the error in the second-order approximate solution. These methods have already been applied to the numerical simulation of migration-accumulation of oil resources.     

A novel perspective to the local fractional Zakharov–Kuznetsov-modified equal width dynamical model on Cantor sets

In this work, the local fractional Zakharov–Kuznetsov-modified equal width dynamical (LFZKMEWD) model is investigated on Cantor sets by using the local fractional derivative (LFD). The fractal variational wave method (FVWM) is employed to obtain the exact traveling wave solutions of the nondifferentiable type for the LFZKMEW model. The numerical example illustrates the FVWM is efficient and straightforward. The properties of exact traveling wave solutions are also elaborated by some figures.     

Quantitative approximation by fractional smooth general singular operators

In this article we study the fractional smooth general singular integral operators on the real line, regarding their convergence to the unit operator with fractional rates in the uniform norm. The related established inequalities involve the higher order moduli of smoothness of the associated right and left Caputo fractional derivatives of the engaged function. Furthermore we produce a fractional Voronovskaya type result giving the fractional asymptotic expansion of the basic error of our approximation.We finish with applications to fractional trigonometric singular integral operators. Our operators are not in general positive.     

Weak and smooth solutions for a fractional Yamabe flow: The case of general compact and locally conformally flat manifolds

As a counterpart of the classical Yamabe problem, a fractional Yamabe flow has been introduced by Jin and Xiong (2014) on the sphere. Here we pursue its study in the context of general compact smooth manifolds with positive fractional curvature. First, we prove that the flow is locally well posed in the weak sense on any compact manifold. If the manifold is locally conformally flat with positive Yamabe invariant, we also prove that the flow is smooth and converges to a constant fractional curvature metric. We provide different proofs using extension properties introduced by Chang and González (2011) for the conformally covariant fractional order operators.     

Existence of fractional differential chains and factorizations based on transformations

In this work, we deal with the existence of the fractional integrable equations involving two generalized symmetries compatible with nonlinear systems. The method used is based on the Bä cklund transformation or B‐transformation. Furthermore, we shall factorize the fractional heat operator in order to yield the fractional Riccati equation. This is done by utilizing matrix transform Miura type and matrix operators, that is, matrices whose entries are differential operators of fractional order. The fractional differential operator is taken in the sense of Riemann–Liouville calculus. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Properties of fractional operators with fixed memory length

In this present paper, we discuss some properties of fractional operators with fixed memory length (Riemann–Liouville fractional integral, Riemann–Liouville and Caputo fractional derivatives). Some observations and examples are discussed during the article, in order to make the results well defined and clear. Furthermore, we consider the fundamental theorem of calculus for fractional operators with fixed memory length.     

Numerical algorithms for approximation of fractional integral operators based on quadratic interpolation

We present numerical algorithms calculating compositions of the left and right fractional integrals. We apply quadratic interpolation and obtain the fractional Simpson's rule. We estimate the local truncation error of the proposed approximations, calculate errors generated by presented algorithms, and determine the experimental rate of convergence. Finally, we show examples of numerical evaluation of these operators.

Blow-up of solutions for a time-space fractional evolution system

In this paper, firstly, we study the local existence and uniqueness of mild solutions for fractional evolution systems with nonlocal in time nonlinearity. Then, we claim that such a mild solution is weak solution of this system. Finally, we prove a blow-up result under some conditions.     

Pseudoprocesses Related to Space-Fractional Higher-Order Heat-Type Equations

In this article, we construct pseudo random walks (symmetric and asymmetric) that converge in law to compositions of pseudoprocesses stopped at stable subordinators. We find the higher-order space-fractional heat-type equations whose fundamental solutions coincide with the law of the limiting pseudoprocesses. The fractional equations involve either Riesz operators or their Feller asymmetric counterparts. The main result of this article is the derivation of pseudoprocesses whose law is governed by heat-type equations of real-valued order γ > 2. The classical pseudoprocesses are very special cases of those investigated here.
