In this paper we consider a fractional optimization problem that minimizes the ratio of two quadratic functions subject to a strictly convex quadratic constraint. First using the extension of Charnes-Cooper transformation, an equivalent homogenized quadratic reformulation of the problem is given. Then we show that under certain assumptions, it can be solved to global optimality using semidefini...

In this paper, a numerical efficient method is proposed for the solution of time fractional mobile/immobile equation. The fractional derivative of equation is described in the Caputo sense. The proposed method is based on a finite difference scheme in time and Legendre spectral method in space. In this approach the time fractional derivative of mentioned equation is approximated by a scheme of ord...

In this paper, we exhibit two methods to numerically solve the fractional integro differential equations and then proceed to compare the results of their applications on different problems. For this purpose, at first shifted Jacobi polynomials are introduced and then operational matrices of the shifted Jacobi polynomials are stated. Then these equations are solved by two methods: Caputo fractio...

in this paper we present a new method for solving fractional optimal control problems with delays in state and control. this method is based upon bernstein polynomial basis and using feedback control. the main advantage of using feedback or closed-loop controls is that they can monitor their effect on the system and modify the output accordingly. in this work, we use bernstein polynomials to tr...

A new polynomial approach is proposed to analysis of the standard and positive descriptor electrical circuits composed of resistors, coils, capacitors and voltage (current) sources. It is shown that for given descriptor fractional electrical circuit the equivalent standard fractional electrical circuit can be found by premultiplication of the equation of the descriptor electrical circuit by sui...

Abstract: In this paper, we apply the shifted Legendre polynomial method (SLPM) to solve the fractional Volterra’s model for population growth of a species in a closed system. The SLPM solution procedure for nonlinear fractional integro-differential equations is established. Moreover, the accurate analytical approximations are obtained, which are valid and convergent for different fractional or...
