It is generally believed that in order to solve initial value problems using Lie symmetry methods, the initial condition needs to be left invariant by the infinitesimal symmetry generator that admits the invariant solution. This is not so. In this paper we incorporate the imposed initial value as a side condition to find ‘infinitesimals’ from which solutions satisfying the initial value can be recovered, along with the corresponding symmetry generator.

A new shifted Legendre-Gauss collocation method is proposed for the solution of Volterra’s model for population growth of a species in a closed system. Volterra’s model is a nonlinear integrodifferential equation on a semi-infinite domain, where the integral term represents the effects of toxin. In this method, by choosing a step size, the original problem is replaced with a sequence of initial value problems in subintervals. The obtained initial value problems are then step by step reduced to systems of algebraic equations using collocation. The initial conditions for each step are obtained from the approximated solution at its previous step. It is shown that the accuracy can be improved by either increasing the collocation points or decreasing the step size. The method seems easy to implement and computationally attractive. Numerical findings demonstrate the applicability and high accuracy of the proposed method.

A shifted Jacobi Galerkin method is introduced to get a direct solution technique for solving the third- and fifth-order differential equations with constant coefficients subject to initial conditions. The key to the efficiency of these algorithms is to construct appropriate base functions, which lead to systems with specially structured matrices that can be efficiently inverted. A quadrature Galerkin method is introduced for the numerical solution of these problems with variable coefficients. A new shifted Jacobi collocation method based on basis functions satisfying the initial conditions is presented for solving nonlinear initial value problems. Through several numerical examples, we evaluate the accuracy and performance of the proposed algorithms. The algorithms are easy to implement and yield very accurate results.

The main objective of this paper is to solve fuzzy initial value problems, in which the fuzziness occurs in the initial conditions. The proposed approach, namely the modified variational iteration method, will be used to find the solution of fuzzy initial value problem approximately and to increase the rate of convergence of the variational iteration method. From the obtained results, as it is expected, the approximate results of the proposed method are more accurate than those results obtained without using the modified variational iteration method.

<abstract> <p>The paper shows that the Caputo definition of fractional differentiation is problematic if it is used in the definition of a time fractional model and if initial conditions are taken into account. The demonstration is done using simple examples (or counterexamples). The analysis is extended to the Riemann-Liouville and Grünwald-Letnikov definitions. These results thus question the validity of results produced in the field of time fractional model analysis in which initial conditions are involved.</p> </abstract>

In this paper, we obtain the Gronwall type inequality for generalized fractional operators unifying Riemann-Liouville and Hadamard fractional operators. We apply this inequality to the dependence of the solution of differential equations, involving generalized fractional derivatives, on both the order and the initial conditions. More properties for the generalized fractional operators are formulated and the solutions of initial value problems in certain new weighted spaces of functions are established as well.

We present an existence result for generalized solutions of initial value problems obtained through the order completion method. The solutions we obtain satisfy the initial condition in a suitable extended sense, and each such solution may be represented in a canonical way through its generalized partial derivatives as nearly finite normal lower semicontinuous function.

In this paper, we study Linear Riemann-Liouville fractional differential equations with a constant delay. The initial condition is set up similarly to the case of ordinary derivative. Explicit formulas for the solutions are obtained for various initial functions.

In this short article we discuss the initial condition of the initial value problem for fractional differential equations with delayed argument and derivatives in Riemann-Liouville sense. We provide also a new lemma - a ?mirror? analogue of the Kilbas Lemma, concerning the right side Riemann-Liouville fractional integral, which is important for the correct setting of the initial conditions, especially in the case of equations with delay.
