Physical interpretation of initial conditions for fractional differential equations with Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives

On a series of examples from the field of viscoelasticity we demonstrate that it is possible to attribute physical meaning to initial conditions expressed in terms of Riemann–Liouville fractional derivatives, and that it is possible to obtain initial values for such initial conditions by appropriate measurements or observations.Dedicated to professor Hari M.

Darboux problem for a differential equation with fractional derivative

We find conditions for the unique solvability of the problem u _xy (x, y) = f(x, y, u(x, y), (D ₀ ^r u)(x, y)), u(x, 0) = u(0, y) = 0, x ∈ [0, a], y ∈ [0, b], where (D ₀ ^r u)(x, y) is the mixed Riemann-Liouville derivative of order r = (r ₁, r ₂), 0 < r ₁, r ₂ < 1, in the class of functions that have the continuous derivatives u _xy (x, y) and (D ₀ ^r u)(x, y). We propose a numerical method for solving this problem and prove the convergence of the method. __________ Translated from Neliniini Kolyvannya, Vol. 8, No. 4, pp. 456–467, October–December, 2005.     

A uniqueness criterion for fractional differential equations with Caputo derivative

We investigate the uniqueness of solutions to an initial value problem associated with a nonlinear fractional differential equation of order α∈(0,1). The differential operator is of Caputo type whereas the nonlinearity cannot be expressed as a Lipschitz function. Instead, the Riemann–Liouville derivative of this nonlinearity verifies a special inequality.     

Stable fractional Chebyshev differentiation matrix for the numerical solution of multi-order fractional differential equations

This paper presents an algorithm to obtain numerically stable differentiation matrices for approximating the left- and right-sided Caputo-fractional derivatives. The proposed differentiation matrices named fractional Chebyshev differentiation matrices are obtained using stable recurrence relations at the Chebyshev–Gauss–Lobatto points. These stable recurrence relations overcome previous limitations of the conventional methods such as the size of fractional differentiation matrices due to the exponential growth of round-off errors. Fractional Chebyshev collocation method as a framework for solving fractional differential equations with multi-order Caputo derivatives is also presented. The numerical stability of spectral methods for linear fractional-order differential equations (FDEs) is studied by using the proposed framework. Furthermore, the proposed fractional Chebyshev differentiation matrices obtain the fractional-order derivative of a function with spectral convergence. Therefore, they can be used in various spectral collocation methods to solve a system of linear or nonlinear multi-ordered FDEs. To illustrate the true advantages of the proposed fractional Chebyshev differentiation matrices, the numerical solutions of a linear FDE with a highly oscillatory solution, a stiff nonlinear FDE, and a fractional chaotic system are given. In the first, second, and forth examples, a comparison is made with the solution obtained by the proposed method and the one obtained by the Adams–Bashforth–Moulton method. It is shown the proposed fractional differentiation matrices are highly efficient in solving all the aforementioned examples.     

CAUCHY PROBLEM OF ONE TYPE OF ATMOSPHERE EVOLUTION EQUATIONS

One type of evolution atmosphere equations was discussed. It is found that according to the stratification theory, （i） the inertial force has no influence on the criterion of the well-posed Cauchy problem; （ii） the compressibility plays no role on the well-posed condition of the Cauchy problem of the viscid atmosphere equations, but changes the well-posed condition of the viscid atmosphere equations; （iii） this type of atmosphere evolution equations is ill-posed on the hyperplane t = 0 in spite of its compressibility and viscosity; （iv） the Cauchy problem of compressible viscosity atmosphere with still initial motion is ill-posed.     

Numerical solutions of differential equations with fractional L-derivative

Fractional differential equations are solved with L-fractional derivatives, using numerical procedures. Two characteristic fractional differential equations are numerically solved. The first equation describes the motion of a thin rigid plate immersed in a Newtonian fluid connected by a massless spring to a fixed point, and the other one the diffusion of gas in a fluid.     

On one class of differential equations of fractional order

We consider the Darboux problem for a differential equation of fractional order that contains a regularized mixed derivative. Sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a solution of this problem are obtained in the class of continuous functions. We also propose a method for finding an approximate solution of this problem and prove the convergence of this method.
