A survey on fuzzy fractional differential and optimal control nonlocal evolution equations
We survey some representative results on fuzzy fractional differential
equations, controllability, approximate controllability, optimal control, and
optimal feedback control for several different kinds of fractional evolution
equations. Optimality and relaxation of multiple control problems, described by
nonlinear fractional differential equations with nonlocal control conditions in
Banach spaces, are considered.Comment: This is a preprint of a paper whose final and definite form is with

On Some Operators Involving Hadamard Derivatives
In this paper we introduce a novel Mittag--Leffler-type function and study
its properties in relation to some integro-differential operators involving
Hadamard fractional derivatives or Hyper-Bessel-type operators. We discuss then
the utility of these results to solve some integro-differential equations
involving these operators by means of operational methods. We show the
advantage of our approach through some examples. Among these, an application to
a modified Lamb--Bateman integral equation is presented
Comments on the Properties of Mittag-Leffler Function
The properties of Mittag-Leffler function is reviewed within the framework of
an umbral formalism. We take advantage from the formal equivalence with the
exponential function to define the relevant semigroup properties. We analyse
the relevant role in the solution of Schr\"odinger type and heat-type
fractional partial differential equations and explore the problem of
operatorial ordering finding appropriate rules when non-commuting operators are
involved. We discuss the coherent states associated with the fractional
Sch\"odinger equation, analyze the relevant Poisson type probability amplitude
and compare with analogous results already obtained in the literature.Comment: 16 pages, 9 figure
A space-time pseudospectral discretization method for solving diffusion optimal control problems with two-sided fractional derivatives
We propose a direct numerical method for the solution of an optimal control
problem governed by a two-side space-fractional diffusion equation. The
presented method contains two main steps. In the first step, the space variable
is discretized by using the Jacobi-Gauss pseudospectral discretization and, in
this way, the original problem is transformed into a classical integer-order
optimal control problem. The main challenge, which we faced in this step, is to
derive the left and right fractional differentiation matrices. In this respect,
novel techniques for derivation of these matrices are presented. In the second
step, the Legendre-Gauss-Radau pseudospectral method is employed. With these
two steps, the original problem is converted into a convex quadratic
optimization problem, which can be solved efficiently by available methods. Our
approach can be easily implemented and extended to cover fractional optimal
control problems with state constraints. Five test examples are provided to
demonstrate the efficiency and validity of the presented method. The results
show that our method reaches the solutions with good accuracy and a low CPU
time.Comment: This is a preprint of a paper whose final and definite form is with

VI Workshop on Computational Data Analysis and Numerical Methods: Book of Abstracts
The VI Workshop on Computational Data Analysis and Numerical Methods (WCDANM) is going to be held on June 27-29, 2019, in the Department of Mathematics of the University of Beira Interior (UBI), Covilhã, Portugal and it is a unique opportunity to disseminate scientific research related to the areas of Mathematics in general, with particular relevance to the areas of Computational Data Analysis and Numerical Methods in theoretical and/or practical field, using new techniques, giving especial emphasis to applications in Medicine, Biology, Biotechnology, Engineering, Industry, Environmental Sciences, Finance, Insurance, Management and Administration. The meeting will provide a forum for discussion and debate of ideas with interest to the scientific community in general. With this meeting new scientific collaborations among colleagues, namely new collaborations in Masters and PhD projects are expected. The event is open to the entire scientific community (with or without communication/poster)
