In this paper, a new numerical method for solving fractional optimal control problems (FOCPs) is presented. The fractional derivative in the dynamic system is described in the Caputo sense. The method is based upon biorthogonal cubic Hermite spline multiwavelets approximations. The properties of biorthogonal multiwavelets are first given. The operational matrix of fractional Riemann-Lioville in...

In this manuscript a new method is introduced for solving fractional differential equations. The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. The main idea is to use fractional-order Legendre wavelets and operational matrix of fractional-order integration. First the fractional-order Legendre wavelets (FLWs) are presented. Then a family of piecewise functions is proposed, based on whi...

In this paper, based on the fractional Riccati equation, we propose an extended fractional Riccati sub-equation method for solving fractional partial differential equations. The fractional derivative is defined in the sense of the modified Riemann-Liouville derivative. By a proposed variable transformation, certain fractional partial differential equations are turned into fractional ordinary di...

Motivated by Candes and Donoho′s work (Candés, E J, Donoho, D L, Recovering edges in ill-posed inverse problems: optimality of curvelet frames. Ann. Stat. 30, 784-842 (2002)), this paper is devoted to giving a lower bound of minimax mean square errors for Riesz fractional integration transforms and Bessel transforms.

We prove boundedness of the Riesz fractional integral operator between distinct Orlicz–Morrey spaces, which is a generalization Adams type result. Moreover, we investigate some weighted Hardy operators and fractio

In this paper we consider fractional maximal operators with Radon measure on R. We do not pose any assumption on the measure μ except that the measure is non-zero. For the proof we construct Riesz-like potential operators for μ.

In this article, we study the oscillation of solutions to a nonlinear forced fractional differential equation. The fractional derivative is defined in the sense of the modified Riemann-Liouville derivative. Based on a transformation of variables and properties of the modified Riemann-liouville derivative, the fractional differential equation is transformed into a second-order ordinary different...

A fractional wave equation replaces the second time derivative by a Caputo derivative of order between one and two. In this paper, we show that the fractional wave equation governs a stochastic model for wave propagation, with deterministic time replaced by the inverse of a stable subordinator whose index is one half the order of the fractional time derivative.

In this paper, we further discuss the properties of three kinds of fractional derivatives: the Grünwald–Letnikov derivative, the Riemann–Liouville derivative and the Caputo derivative. Especially, we compare the Riemann–Liouville derivative with the Caputo derivative. And sequential property of the Caputo derivative is also derived, which is helpful in translating the higher fractional-order di...

Two approaches for defining fractional derivatives of periodic distributions are presented. The first is a distributional version of the Weyl fractional derivative in which a derivative of arbitrary order of a periodic distribution is defined via Fourier series. The second is based on the Grünwald-Letnikov formula for defining a fractional derivative as a limit of a fractional difference quotie...
