Positive solutions for Hadamard-type fractional differential equations with nonlocal conditions on an infinite interval

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the local existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for a Hadamard-type fractional differential equation with nonlocal boundary conditions on an infinite interval. The technique used to arrive our results depends on two fixed point theorems of a sum operator in partial ordering Banach spaces. The local existence and uniqueness of positive solution is given, and we can make iterative sequences to approximate the unique positive solution. For the illustration of the main results, we list two concrete examples in the last section

Solvability for a Hadamard-type fractional integral boundary value problem

In this paper, we study an integral boundary value problem involving a Hadamard-type fractional differential equation. Using fixed point theory and upper-lower solutions, we present some sufficient conditions to obtain existence theorems of positive solutions for the problem. Examples are provided to illustrate our results

Fractional Differential Equations, Inclusions and Inequalities with Applications

During the last decade, there has been an increased interest in fractional differential equations, inclusions, and inequalities, as they play a fundamental role in the modeling of numerous phenomena, in particular, in physics, biomathematics, blood flow phenomena, ecology, environmental issues, viscoelasticity, aerodynamics, electrodynamics of complex medium, electrical circuits, electron-analytical chemistry, control theory, etc. This book presents collective works published in the recent Special Issue (SI) entitled "Fractional Differential Equation, Inclusions and Inequalities with Applications" of the journal Mathematics. This Special Issue presents recent developments in the theory of fractional differential equations and inequalities. Topics include but are not limited to the existence and uniqueness results for boundary value problems for different types of fractional differential equations, a variety of fractional inequalities, impulsive fractional differential equations, and applications in sciences and engineering

Nonlocal q-fractional boundary value problem with Stieltjes integral conditions

In this paper, we are dedicated to investigating a new class of one-dimensional lower-order fractional q-differential equations involving integral boundary conditions supplemented with Stieltjes integral. This condition is more general as it contains an arbitrary order derivative. It should be pointed out that the problem discussed in the current setting provides further insight into the research on nonlocal and integral boundary value problems. We first give the Green's functions of the boundary value problem and then develop some properties of the Green's functions that are conductive to our main results. Our main aim is to present two results: one considering the uniqueness of nontrivial solutions is given by virtue of contraction mapping principle associated with properties of u0-positive linear operator in which Lipschitz constant is associated with the first eigenvalue corresponding to related linear operator, while the other one aims to obtain the existence of multiple positive solutions under some appropriate conditions via standard fixed point theorems due to Krasnoselskii and Leggett–Williams. Finally, we give an example to illustrate the main results. &nbsp

Fractional Calculus Operators and the Mittag-Leffler Function

This book focuses on applications of the theory of fractional calculus in numerical analysis and various fields of physics and engineering. Inequalities involving fractional calculus operators containing the Mittag–Leffler function in their kernels are of particular interest. Special attention is given to dynamical models, magnetization, hypergeometric series, initial and boundary value problems, and fractional differential equations, among others

A few representation formulas for solutions of fractional Laplace equations

This paper is devoted to the Laplacian operator of fractional order $s\in (0,1)$ in several dimensions. We first establish a representation formula for the partial derivatives of the solutions of the homogeneous Dirichlet problem. Along the way, we obtain a Pohozaev-type identity for the fractional Green function and of the fractional Robin function. The latter extends to the fractional setting a formula obtained by Br\'ezis and Peletier, see \cite{Bresiz}, in the classical case of the Laplacian. As an application we consider the particle system extending the classical point vortex system to the case of a fractional Laplacian. We observe that, for a single particle in a bounded domain, the properties of the fractional Robin function are crucial for the study of the steady states. We also extend the classical Hadamard variational formula to the fractional Green function as well as to the shape derivative of weak solution to the homogeneous Dirichlet problem. Finally we turn to the in homogeneous Dirichlet problem and extend a formula by J.L. Lions, see \cite{Lions}, regarding the kernel of the reproducing kernel Hilbert space of harmonic functions to the case of $s$-harmonic functions. We observe that, despite the order of the operator is not $2$, this formula looks like the Hadamard variational formula, answering in a negative way to an open question raised in \cite{ELPL}

The probabilistic point of view on the generalized fractional PDES

This paper aims at unifying and clarifying the recent advances in the analysis of the fractional and generalized fractional Partial Differential Equations of Caputo and Riemann-Liouville type arising essentially from the probabilistic point of view. This point of view leads to the path integral representation for the solutions of these equations, which is seen to be stable with respect to the initial data and key parameters and is directly amenable to numeric calculations (Monte-Carlo simulation). In many cases these solutions can be compactly presented via the wide class of operator-valued analytic functions of the Mittag-Leffler type, which are proved to be expressed as the Laplace transforms of the exit times of monotone Markov processes

Solvability and asymptotic properties for an elliptic geophysical fluid flows model in a planar exterior domain

In this paper, we study the solvability and asymptotic properties of a recently derived gyre model of nonlinear elliptic Schrödinger equation arising from the geophysical fluid flows. The existence theorems and the asymptotic properties for radial positive solutions are established due to space theory and analytical techniques, some special cases and specific examples are also given to describe the applicability of model in gyres of geophysical fluid flows
