A new characterization of bivariate copulas is given by using the notion of Dini derivatives. Several examples illustrate the usefulness of this result.

In this paper, we show that higher-order optimality conditions can be obtain for arbitrary nonsmooth function. We introduce a new higher-order directional derivative and higher-order subdifferential of Hadamard type of a given proper extended real function. This derivative is consistent with the classical higher-order Fréchet directional derivative in the sense that both derivatives of the same...

In this paper, a time fractional diffusion equation on a finite domain is con- sidered. The time fractional diffusion equation is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the first order time derivative by a fractional derivative of order 0 < a< 1 (in the Riemann-Liovill or Caputo sence). In equation that we consider the time fractional derivative is in...

The paper contains calculus rules for coderivatives of compositions, sums and intersections of set-valued mappings. The types of coderivatives considered correspond to Dini-Hadamard and limiting Dini-Hadamard subdifferentials in Gâteaux differentiable spaces, Fréchet and limiting Fréchet subdifferentials in Asplund spaces and approximate subdifferentials in arbitrary Banach spaces. The key elem...

A. The von Mises Expansion Before diving into the auxiliary results of Section 5, let us first derive some properties of the von Mises expansion. It is a simple calculation to verify that the Gateaux derivative is simply the functional derivative of in the event that T (F ) = R (f). Lemma 8. Let T (F ) = R (f)dμ where f = dF/dμ is the Radon-Nikodym derivative, is differentiable and let G be som...

The aim of this paper is to study the high order difference scheme for the solution of a fractional partial differential equation (PDE) in the electroanalytical chemistry. The space fractional derivative is described in the Riemann-Liouville sense. In the proposed scheme we discretize the space derivative with a fourth-order compact scheme and use the Grunwald- Letnikov discretization of the Ri...

The controlling kinetics of the water solubility of two synthesized mono azo naphthalimide based disperse dyestuffs in the presence of two different dispersing agents namely Irgasol DAM and lyoprint EV agents at various temperatures were investigated. An exponential rate equation was found to describe the dissolution process. The addition of Irgasol DAM and Lyoprint EV dispersing agents increas...

Definitions of fractional derivatives as fractional powers of derivative operators are suggested. The Taylor series and Fourier series are used to define fractional power of self-adjoint derivative operator. The Fourier integrals and Weyl quantization procedure are applied to derive the definition of fractional derivative operator. Fractional generalization of concept of stability is considered.
