abstract.   the sturm-liouville boundary value problem of the multi-order fractional differential equation  is studied. results on the existence of solutions are established. the analysis relies on a weighted function space and a fixed point theorem. an example is given to illustrate the efficiency of the main theorems.

In the last decade, sequential Monte-Carlo methods (SMC) emerged as a key tool in computational statistics (see for instance Doucet et al. (2001), Liu (2001), Künsch (2001)). These algorithms approximate a sequence of distributions by a sequence of weighted empirical measures associated to a weighted population of particles. These particles and weights are generated recursively according to ele...
