Fractional Differential Equations

Fractional Differential Equations: Theoretical Aspects and Applications presents the latest mathematical and conceptual developments in the field of Fractional Calculus and explores the scope of applications in research science and computational modeling. The book delves into these methods and applied computational modelling techniques, including analysis of equations involving fractional derivatives, fractional derivatives and the wave equation, analysis of FDE on groups, direct and inverse problems, functional inequalities, and computational methods for FDEs in physics and engineering. Other modeling techniques and applications explored include general fractional derivatives involving the special functions in analysis and fractional derivatives with respect to other functions. Fractional Calculus, the field of mathematics dealing with operators of differentiation and integration of arbitrary real or even complex order, extends many of the modelling capabilities of conventional calculus and integer-order differential equations and finds its application in various scientific areas, such as physics, mechanics, engineering, economics, finance, biology, and chemistry, among others.
