Recently, fractional calculus has attracted much attention since it plays an important role in many fields of science and engineering. Especially, the study on stability of fractional differential equations appears to be very important. In this paper, a brief overview on the recent stability results of fractional differential equations and the analytical methods used are provided. These equatio...

The investigation of the theory of fractional calculus has been started about three decades before. Fractional order nonlinear equations are abstract formulations for many problems arising in engineering, physics and many other fields in which the integer derivative with respect to time is replaced by a derivative of fractional order. In particular, the fractional calculus is used in diffusion ...

Derivatives and integrals of non-integer order were introduced more than three centuries ago, but only recently gained more attention due to their application on nonlocal phenomena. In this context, the Caputo derivatives are the most popular approach to fractional calculus among physicists, since differential equations involving Caputo derivatives require regular boundary conditions. Motivated...

The sets and curves of fractional dimension have been constructed and found to be useful at number of places in science [1]. They are used to model various irregular phenomena. It is wellknown that the usual calculus is inadequate to handle such structures and processes. Therefore a new calculus should be developed which incorporates fractals naturally. Fractional calculus, which is a branch of...

Fractional order calculus is the general expansion of linear integerorder calculus and is considered as one of the novel topics for modelling dynamical systems in different applications. In this paper, the generalized state equation of the nonlinear two-terminal element which is called memristor is discussed in the fractional-order sense. The effect of the added fractional-order parameter on th...

In this paper, we consider the second-kind Chebyshev polynomials (SKCPs) for the numerical solution of the fractional optimal control problems (FOCPs). Firstly, an introduction of the fractional calculus and properties of the shifted SKCPs are given and then operational matrix of fractional integration is introduced. Next, these properties are used together with the Legendre-Gauss quadrature fo...
