Considering the large number of fractional operators that exist, and since it does not seem that their number will stop increasing soon at the time of writing this paper, it is presented for the first time, as far as the authors know, a simple and compact method to work the fractional calculus through the classification of fractional operators using sets. This new method of working with fractional operators, which may be called fractional calculus of sets, allows generalizing objects of conventional calculus, such as tensor operators, the Taylor series of a vector-valued function, and the fixed-point method, in several variables, which allows generating the method known as the fractional fixed-point method. Furthermore, it is also shown that each fractional fixed-point method that generates a convergent sequence has the ability to generate an uncountable family of fractional fixed-point methods that generate convergent sequences. So, it is presented a method to estimate numerically in a region Ω the mean order of convergence of any fractional fixed-point method, and it is shown how to construct a hybrid fractional iterative method to determine the critical points of a scalar function. Finally, considering that the proposed method to classify fractional operators through sets allows generalizing the existing results of the fractional calculus, some examples are shown of how to define families of fractional operators that satisfy some property to ensure the validity of the results to be generalized.

The purpose of this research is to connect fixed point methods with certain third-order boundary value problems in new and interesting ways. Our strategy involves an analysis of the problem under consideration within closed and bounded sets. We develop sufficient conditions under which the associated mappings will be contractive and invariant in these sets, which generates new advances concerning the existence, uniqueness and approximation of solutions.
