In this paper, fractional order system observability is discussed. A representation of these systems that involves a classical linear integer system and a system described by a parabolic equation is used to define the system real state and to conclude that the system state cannot be observed. However, it is also shown that the state space like representation usually encountered in the literature for fractional systems, can be used to design Luenberger like observers that permit an estimation of important variables in the system.

Abstract Discrete fractional order systems have attracted more and more attention in recent years. Nabla Laplace transform is an important tool to deal with the problem of nabla discrete fractional order systems, but there is still much room for its development. In this paper, 14 lemmas are listed to conclude the existing properties and 14 theorems are developed to describe the innovative features. On one hand, these properties make the Ntransform more effective and efficient. On the other hand, they enrich the discrete fractional order system theory.

This paper reviews some properties of the gamma function, particularly the incomplete gamma function and its complement, as a function of the Laplace variable s. The utility of these functions in the solution of initialization problems in fractional-order system theory is demonstrated.

Finding the oscillatory region in the order space is one of the most challenging problems in nonlinear fractional-order systems. This paper proposes a method to find the possible oscillatory region in the order space for a nonlinear fractional-order system. The effectiveness of the proposed method in finding the oscillatory region and special order sets placed in its boundary is confirmed by presenting some examples.

A typical phenomenon of the fractional order system is presented to describe the initial value problem from a brand-new perspective in this paper. Several simulation examples are given to introduce the named aberration phenomenon, which reflects the complexity and the importance of the initial value problem. Then, generalizations on the infinite dimensional property and the long memory property are proposed to reveal the nature of the phenomenon. As a result, the relationship between the pseudo state-space model and the infinite dimensional exact state-space model is demonstrated. It shows the inborn defects of the initial values of the fractional order system. Afterward, the pre-initial process and the initialization function are studied. Finally, specific methods to estimate exact state-space models and fit initialization functions are proposed.

In this paper, synchronization of a fractional-order system with unknown parameters is studied. The chaotic attractor of the system is got by means of numerical simulation. Then based on the stability theory of fractional-order systems, suitable synchronization controllers and parameter identification rules for the unknown parameters are designed. Numerical simulations are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the controllers.

A fractional-order system with complex variables is proposed. Firstly, the dynamics of the system including symmetry, equilibrium points, chaotic attractors, and bifurcations with variation of system parameters and derivative order are studied. The routes leading to chaos including the period-doubling and tangent bifurcations are obtained. Then, based on the stability theory of fractional-order systems, the scheme of synchronization for the fractional-order complex system is presented. By designing appropriate controllers, the synchronization for the system is realized. Numerical simulations are carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

A parallel algorithm is presented that approximates a solution for fractional-order systems. The algorithm isimplemented in CUDA, using the specific GPU capabilities. The numerical methods used are Adams-Bashforth-Moulton (ABM) predictor-corrector scheme and Diethelm’s numerical method. A comparison is done between these numerical methods that adapts the same algorithm for the approximation of the solution.

This paper seeks a deeper understanding of the need for time-varying initialization of fractional-order systems. Specifically, the paper determines the energy stored in a fractional-order element based on the history of the element, and shows how this initialization energy is manifest into the future as an initialization function. Further, it is shown that infinite energy is required to initialize a fractional-order system when using the Caputo derivative Laplace transform.
