Riemann–Liouville Fractional Sobolev and Bounded Variation Spaces

We establish some properties of the bilateral Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative Ds. We set the notation, and study the associated Sobolev spaces of fractional order s, denoted by Ws,1(a,b), and the fractional bounded variation spaces of fractional order s, denoted by BVs(a,b). Examples, embeddings and compactness properties related to these spaces are addressed, aiming to set a functional framework suitable for fractional variational models for image analysis.

Analytical Solution for Impact of Caputo-Fabrizio Fractional Derivative on MHD Casson Fluid with Thermal Radiation and Chemical Reaction Effects

Fractional derivatives have been proven to showcase a spectrum of solutions that is useful in the fields of engineering, medical, and manufacturing sciences. Studies on the application of fractional derivatives on fluid flow are relatively new, especially in analytical studies. Thus, geometrical representations for fractional derivatives in the mechanics of fluid flows are yet to be discovered. Nonetheless, theoretical studies will be useful in facilitating future experimental studies. Therefore, the aim of this study is to showcase an analytical solution on the impact of the Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative for a magnethohydrodynamic (MHD) Casson fluid flow with thermal radiation and chemical reaction. Analytical solutions are obtained via Laplace transform through compound functions. The obtained solutions are first verified, then analysed. It is observed from the study that variations in the fractional derivative parameter, α, exhibits a transitional behaviour of fluid between unsteady state and steady state. Numerical analyses on skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number were also analysed. Behaviour of these three properties were in agreement of that from past literature.

Analytical Solutions of a Class of Fluids Models with the Caputo Fractional Derivative

This paper studies the analytical solutions of the fractional fluid models described by the Caputo derivative. We combine the Fourier sine and the Laplace transforms. We analyze the influence of the order of the Caputo derivative the Prandtl number, the Grashof numbers, and the Casson parameter on the dynamics of the fractional diffusion equation with reaction term and the fractional heat equation. In this paper, we notice that the order of the Caputo fractional derivative plays the retardation effect or the acceleration. The physical interpretations of the influence of the parameters of the model have been proposed. The graphical representations illustrate the main findings of the present paper. This paper contributes to answering the open problem of finding analytical solutions to the fluid models described by the fractional operators.

Stability of Generalized Proportional Caputo Fractional Differential Equations by Lyapunov Functions

In this paper, nonlinear nonautonomous equations with the generalized proportional Caputo fractional derivative (GPFD) are considered. Some stability properties are studied by the help of the Lyapunov functions and their GPFDs. A scalar nonlinear fractional differential equation with the GPFD is considered as a comparison equation, and some comparison results are proven. Sufficient conditions for stability and asymptotic stability were obtained. Examples illustrating the results and ideas in this paper are also provided.

Taming Hyperchaos with Exact Spectral Derivative Discretization Finite Difference Discretization of a Conformable Fractional Derivative Financial System with Market Confidence and Ethics Risk

Four discrete models, using the exact spectral derivative discretization finite difference (ESDDFD) method, are proposed for a chaotic five-dimensional, conformable fractional derivative financial system incorporating ethics and market confidence. Since the system considered was recently studied using the conformable Euler finite difference (CEFD) method and found to be hyperchaotic, and the CEFD method was recently shown to be valid only at fractional index , the source of the hyperchaos is in question. Through numerical experiments, illustration is presented that the hyperchaos previously detected is, in part, an artifact of the CEFD method, as it is absent from the ESDDFD models.

Solutions and stability for p-Laplacian differential problems with mixed type fractional derivatives

In this note, the main emphasis is to study two kinds of high-order fractional p-Laplacian differential equations with mixed derivatives, which include Caputo type and Riemann–Liouville type fractional derivative. Based on fixed point theorems on the cone, the existence-uniqueness of positive solutions for equations and two iterative schemes to uniformly approximate the unique solutions are discussed theoretically. What’s more, the sufficient conditions for stability of the equations are given. Some exact examples are further provided to verify the analytical results at the end of the article.
