This paper presents a numerical scheme for a class of isoperimetric constraint variational problems (ICVPs) defined in terms of an A-operator introduced recently. In this scheme, Bernstein's polynomials are used to approximate the desired function and to reduce the problem from a functional space to an eigenvalue problem in a finite dimensional space. Properties of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of this problem are used to obtain approximate solutions to the problem. Results for two examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. In special cases, the A-operator reduces to Riemann–Liouville, Caputo, Riesz–Riemann–Liouville, and Riesz–Caputo, and several other fractional derivatives defined in the literature. Thus, the approach presented here provides a general scheme for ICVPs defined using different types of fractional derivatives. Although, only Bernstein's polynomials are used here to approximate the solutions, many other approximation schemes are possible. Effectiveness of these approximation schemes will be presented in the future. While the presented numerical scheme is applied to a quadratic type generalized ICVPs, it can also be applied to other types of problems.

This paper presents a comparative study of four numerical schemes for a class of Isoperimetric Constraint Fractional Variational Problems (ICFVPs) defined in terms of an A-operator introduced recently. The A-operator is defined in a more general way which in special cases reduces to Riemann-Liouville, Caputo, Riesz-Riemann-Liouville and Riesz-Caputo, and several other fractional derivatives defined in the literature. Four different schemes, namely linear, quadratic, quadratic-linear and Bernsteins polynomials approximations, are used to obtain approximate solutions of an ICFVP. All four schemes work well, and when the number of terms approximating the solution are increased, the desired solution is achieved. Results for a modified power kernel in A-operator for different fractional orders are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes. The accuracy of the numerical schemes with respect to parameters such as fractional order α and step size h are analyzed and illustrated in detail through various figures and tables. Finally, comparative performances of the schemes are discussed.

There has been considerable recent interest in certain integral transform operators with non-singular kernels and their ability to be considered as fractional derivatives. Two such operators are the Caputo–Fabrizio operator and the Atangana–Baleanu operator. Here we present solutions to simple initial value problems involving these two operators and show that, apart from some special cases, the solutions have an intrinsic discontinuity at the origin. The intrinsic nature of the discontinuity in the solution raises concerns about using such operators in modelling. Solutions to initial value problems involving the traditional Caputo operator, which has a singularity inits kernel, do not have these intrinsic discontinuities.

In this work, we study variational problems with time delay and higher-order distributed-order fractional derivatives dealing with a new fractional operator. This fractional derivative combines two known operators: distributed-order derivatives and derivatives with respect to another function. The main results of this paper are necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for different types of variational problems. Since we are dealing with generalized fractional derivatives, from this work, some well-known results can be obtained as particular cases.

In this paper, we present a convergent collocation method with which to find the numerical solution of a generalized fractional integro-differential equation (GFIDE). The presented approach is based on the collocation method using Jacobi poly-fractonomials. The GFIDE is defined in terms of the B-operator introduced recently, and it reduces to Caputo fractional derivative and other fractional derivatives in special cases. The convergence and error analysis of the proposed method are also established. Linear and nonlinear cases of the considered GFIDEs are numerically solved and simulation results are presented to validate the theoretical results.

Fractional derivatives (FDs) or derivatives of arbitrary order have been used in many applications, and it is envisioned that in the future they will appear in many functional minimization problems of practical interest. Since fractional derivatives have such properties as being non-local, it can be extremely challenging to find analytical solutions for fractional parametric optimization problems, and in many cases, analytical solutions may not exist. Therefore, it is of great importance to develop numerical methods for such problems. This paper presents a numerical scheme for a linear functional minimization problem that involves FD terms. The FD is defined in terms of the Riemann-Liouville definition; however, the scheme will also apply to Caputo derivatives, as well as other definitions of fractional derivatives. In this scheme, the spatial domain is discretized into several subdomains and 2-node one-dimensional linear elements are adopted to approximate the solution and its fractional derivative at point within the domain. The fractional optimization problem is converted to an eigenvalue problem, the solution of which leads to fractional orthogonal functions. Convergence study of the number of elements and error analysis of the results ensure that the algorithm yields stable results. Various fractional orders of derivative are considered, and as the order approaches the integer value of 1, the solution recovers the analytical result for the corresponding integer order problem.

The dual formulation of the maximal-minimal problem for an objective function of the error response to a fixed input in the continuous-time systems is given by a result of Fenchel dual. This formulation probably changes the original problem in the infinite dimensional space into the maximal problem with some restrained conditions in the finite dimensional space, which can be researched by finite dimensional space theory. When the objective function is given by the norm of the error response, the maximum of the error response or minimum of the error response, the dual formulation for the problems of L1-optimal control, the minimum of maximal error response, and the minimal overshoot etc. can be obtained, which gives a method for studying these problems.

This paper applies the Rayleigh-Ritz method to approximating the Hankel singular values of fractional-order systems. The algorithm is presented, and estimates of the first ten Hankel singular values of G(s) = 1/(sq+1) for several values of q ∈ (0, 1] are given. The estimates are computed by restricting the operator domain to a finite-dimensional space. The Hankel-norm estimates are found to be within 15% of the actual values for all q ∈ (0, 1].
