A model is considered for turbulent diffusion which consists of a Riesz space fractional derivative to describe the turbulent phenomenon and also includes advection and classical diffusion. We present a first order explicit numerical method and a second order implicit numerical method to solve our problem and prove convergence results for both methods, including the derivation of stability constraints needed for the explicit numerical method to converge. In the end, to give some insights into the phenomenon of turbulent diffusion described by the Riesz fractional derivative, we show the behavior of the solution when we consider a Gaussian initial condition.

The condition of omnigenity is investigated, and applied to the near-axis expansion of Garren & Boozer (Phys. Fluids B, vol. 3 (10), 1991a, pp. 2805–2821). Due in part to the particular analyticity requirements of the near-axis expansion, we find that, excluding quasi-symmetric solutions, only one type of omnigenity, namely quasi-isodynamicity, can be satisfied at first order in the distance from the magnetic axis. Our construction provides a parameterization of the space of such solutions, and the cylindrical reformulation and numerical method of Landreman & Sengupta (J. Plasma Phys., vol. 84 (6), 2018, 905840616); Landreman et al. (J. Plasma Phys., vol. 85 (1), 2019, 905850103), enables their efficient numerical construction.

The two-dimensional equations of magnetoelastodynamics are considered as a symmetric hyperbolic system of linear first-order partial-differential equations in three independent variables. The characteristic properties of the system are determined and a numerical method for obtaining the solution to mixed initial and boundary-value problems in plane magnetoelastodynamics is presented. Results on the von Neumann necessary condition are presented. Application of the method to a problem which has a known solution provides further numerical evidence of the convergence and stability of the method.

In this paper, we study the existence and uniqueness of weak solution for the system of finite difference schemes for coupled sine-Gordon equations. A novel first order of accuracy unconditionally stable difference scheme is considered. The variational method also known as the energy method is applied to prove unique weak solvability.We also present a new unified numerical method for the approximate solution of this problem by combining the difference scheme and the fixed point iteration. A test problem is considered, and results of numerical experiments are presented with error analysis to verify the accuracy of the proposed numerical method.

In this paper, some important properties concerning the κ-Hilfer fractional derivative are discussed. Integral transforms for these operators are derived as particular cases of the Jafari transform. These integral transforms are used to derive a fractional version of the fundamental theorem of calculus. Keywords: Integral transforms, Jafari transform, κ-gamma function, κ-beta function, κ-Hilfer fractional derivative, κ-Riesz fractional derivative, κ-fractional operators.
