We obtain a new decomposition of the Riemann–Liouville operators of fractional integration as a series involving derivatives (of integer order). The new formulas are valid for functions of class Cn, n ∈ N, and allow us to develop suitable numerical approximations with known estimations for the error. The usefulness of the obtained results, in solving fractional integral equations and fractional...

and Applied Analysis 3 The rest of this paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, preliminaries and problem statement are given. In Section 3, the consensus conditions are derived by using linear matrix inequality approach and matrix’s singular value decomposition. In Section 4, a simulation example is provided to show the advantages of the obtained results. Conclusions are presented in Sect...

The concept of differentiation and integration to non-integer order has its origins in the seventeen century. However, only in the second-half of the twenty century appeared the first applications related to the area of control theory. In this paper we consider the study of a heat diffusion system based on the application of the fractional calculus concepts. In this perspective, several control...

Since Al-Salam [1] and Agarwal [2] introduced the fractional q-difference calculus, the theory of fractional q-difference calculus itself and nonlinear fractional q-difference equation boundary value problems have been extensively investigated by many researchers. For some recent developments on fractional q-difference calculus and boundary value problems of fractional q-difference equations, s...

We study calculus of variations problems, where the Lagrange function depends on the Caputo-Katugampola fractional derivative. This type of fractional operator is a generalization of the Caputo and the Caputo–Hadamard fractional derivatives, with dependence on a real parameter ρ. We present sufficient and necessary conditions of first and second order to determine the extremizers of a functiona...

This paper formulates a novel expression for entropy inspired in the properties of Fractional Calculus. The characteristics of the generalized fractional entropy are tested both in standard probability distributions and real world data series. The results reveal that tuning the fractional order allow an high sensitivity to the signal evolution, which is useful in describing the dynamics of comp...

The principle of local gauge invariance is applied to fractional wave equations and the interaction term is determined up to order o(ḡ) in the coupling constant ḡ. As a first application, based on the RiemannLiouville fractional derivative definition, the fractional Zeeman effect is used to reproduce the baryon spectrum accurately. The transformation properties of the non relativistic fractiona...

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...

Box 66833, Riyadh, 11586, Saudi Arabia Abstract In this article, we extend fractional calculus with nonsingular exponential kernels, initiated recently by Caputo and Fabrizio, to higher order. The extension is given to both left and right fractional derivatives and integrals. ...

Unsaturated soil exhibits extremely complex engineering mechanical properties under the coupling effect of moistening and stress fields. Firstly, effective principle limit equilibrium conditions unsaturated fields were discussed based on basic principles soil. Secondly, a fractional-order model considering viscoelasticity strain hardening was established fractional calculus theory. Then, damage...
