in this paper, a technique generally known as meshless numerical scheme for solving fractional dierential equations isconsidered. we approximate the exact solution by use of radial basis function(rbf) collocation method. this techniqueplays an important role to reduce a fractional dierential equation to a system of equations. the numerical results demonstrate the accuracy and ability of this me...

In this paper, we study a kind of higher-order nonlinear fractional differential equation with integral boundary condition. The fractional differential operator here is the Caputo’s fractional derivative. By means of fixed point theorems, the existence and multiplicity results of positive solutions are obtained. Furthermore, some examples given here illustrate that the results are almost sharp.

We study the boundary value problem for a kind N-dimension nonlinear fractional differential system with the nonlinear terms involved in the fractional derivative explicitly. The fractional differential operator here is the standard Riemann-Liouville differentiation. By means of fixed point theorems, the existence and multiplicity results of positive solutions are received. Furthermore, two exa...

In this note, we establish the sectorial property of the Caputo fractional derivative operator of order α ∈ (1, 2) with a zero Dirichlet boundary condition.

In this paper, we consider some boundary value problems (BVP) for fractional order partial differential equations ‎(FPDE)‎ with non-local boundary conditions. The solutions of these problems are presented as series solutions analytically via modified Mittag-Leffler functions. These functions have been modified by authors such that their derivatives are invariant with respect to fractional deriv...

Optimal control of fractional linear systems on a finite horizon can be classically formulated using the adjoint system. But the adjoint of a causal fractional integral or derivative operator happens to be an anti-causal operator: hence, the adjoint equations are not easy to solve in the first place. Using an equivalent diffusive realization helps transform the original problem into a coupled s...

Anomalous dispersion is observed throughout hydrology, yielding a contaminant plume with heavy leading tails. The fractional advection dispersion equation (FADE) captures this behavior by replacing the second-order spatial derivative with a Riemann-Liouville (RL) fractional derivative. The RL fractional derivative is a nonlocal operator and models large jumps of solute particles in heterogeneou...
