Analytical solutions for Navier-Stokes equations with -Caputo fractional derivative
This work aims to use the homotopy analysis method to obtain analytical
solutions of linear time-fractional Navier-Stokes equations with cylindrical
coordinates and of a system of nonlinear time-fractional Navier-Stokes
equations with Cartesian coordinates. These equations are described in the
-Caputo time-fractional derivative. The solutions obtained for
time-fractional Navier-Stokes equations are graphically presented.Comment: 17 pages, 8 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Hilfer-Katugampola fractional derivative
We propose a new fractional derivative, the Hilfer-Katugampola fractional
derivative. Motivated by the Hilfer derivative this formulation interpolates
the well-known fractional derivatives of Hilfer, Hilfer-Hadamard,
Riemann-Liouville, Hadamard, Caputo, Caputo-Hadamard, Liouville, Weyl,
generalized and Caputo-type. As an application, we consider a nonlinear
fractional differential equation with an initial condition using this new
formulation. We show that this equation is equivalent to a Volterra integral
equation and demonstrate the existence and uniqueness of solution to the
nonlinear initial value problem.Comment: 21 page
Wavelet Analysis as an Information Processing Technique
A new interpretation for the wavelet analysis is reported, which can is
viewed as an information processing technique. It was recently proposed that
every basic wavelet could be associated with a proper probability density,
allowing defining the entropy of a wavelet. Introducing now the concept of
wavelet mutual information between a signal and an analysing wavelet fulfils
the foundations of a wavelet information theory (WIT). Both continuous and
discrete time signals are considered. Finally, we showed how to compute the
information provided by a multiresolution analysis by means of the
inhomogeneous wavelet expansion. Highlighting ideas behind the WIT are
presented.Comment: 6 pages, 6 tables, VI International Telecommunications Symposium

Child mortality in Penna ageing model
Assuming the deleterious mutations in the Penna ageing model to affect mainly
the young ages, we get an enhanced mortality at very young age, followed by a
minimum of the mortality, and then the usual exponential increase of mortality
with age.Comment: To pages including one figur
Taylor Series as Wide-sense Biorthogonal Wavelet Decomposition
Pointwise-supported generalized wavelets are introduced, based on Dirac,
doublet and further derivatives of delta. A generalized biorthogonal analysis
leads to standard Taylor series and new Dual-Taylor series that may be
interpreted as Laurent Schwartz distributions. A Parseval-like identity is also
derived for Taylor series, showing that Taylor series support an energy
theorem. New representations for signals called derivagrams are introduced,
which are similar to spectrograms. This approach corroborates the impact of
wavelets in modern signal analysis.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures. conference: XXII Simposio Brasileiro de

Three-dimensional black holes with quintessence
We study a quintessential black hole solution in three dimensions, with mass
and quintessence charge. By exploring the Carter-Penrose diagram, we show the
presence of spacelike and lightlike singularities in the metric, given
different values for the quintessence parameter, as well as an AdS-like spatial
infinity and event horizon encapsulating the singularity. We also study the
propagation of scalar and Dirac (Weyl) fields around the black hole solutions
with different quintessence charges obtaining the quasinormal spectra for both
fields using two different numerical methods with good agreement between the
data. In both cases, the presence of quintessence increases the imaginary part
of the quasinormal mode, since this is related to the event horizon of the
solution, preserving the interpretation of this quantity as relaxation time in
the corresponding CFT. We also investigate the behavior of high-temperature
scalar field modes, demonstrating the presence of the so-called hydrodynamical
limit, differently from the BTZ black hole, for which no such modes exist.Comment: 28 pages, 5 tables, 5 figures. In v2, typos corrected. Appendix added

About the Phasor Pathways in Analogical Amplitude Modulation
The Phasor diagrams have long been used in Physics and Engineering. In
telecommunications, this is particularly useful to clarify how the modulations
work. This paper addresses rotating phasor pathways derived from different
standard Amplitude Modulation Systems (e.g. A3E, H3E, J3E, C3F). A cornucopia
of algebraic curves is then derived assuming a single tone or a double tone
modulation signal. The ratio of the frequency of the tone modulator (fm) and
carrier frequency (fc) is considered in two distinct cases, namely: fm/fc<1 and
fm/fc>=1. The geometric figures are some sort of Lissajours figures. Different
shapes appear looking like epicycloids (including cardioids), rhodonea curves,
Lemniscates, folium of Descartes or Lam\'e curves. The role played by the
modulation index is elucidated in each case.Comment: 10 pages, 15 figures. ISSN 2320-936
On the existence and stability for non-instantaneuos impulsive fractional integrodifferential equation
In this paper, by means of Banach fixed point theorem, we investigate the
existence and Ulam--Hyers--Rassias stability of the non-instantaneous impulsive
integrodifferential equation by means of -Hilfer fractional derivative.
In this sense, some examples are presented, in order to consolidate the results
obtained.Comment: 15 page
Gruss-type inequality by mean of a fractional integral
In this paper, using a fractional integral as proposed by Katugampola we
establish a generalization of integral inequalities of Gruss-type. We prove two
theorems associated with these inequalities and then immediately we enunciate
and prove others inequalities associated with these fractional operator.Comment: 16 page
Simple Bit-String Model for Lineage Branching
We introduce a population dynamics model, where individual genomes are
represented by bit-strings. Selection is described by death probabilities which
depend on these genomes, and new individuals continuously replace the ones that
die, keeping the population constant. An offspring has the same genome as its
(randomly chosen) parent, except for a small amount of (also random) mutations.
Chance may thus generate a newborn with a genome that is better than that of
its parent, and the newborn will have a smaller death probability. When this
happens, this individual is a would-be founder of a new lineage. A new lineage
is considered created if its alive descendence grows above a certain previously
defined threshold. The time evolution of populations evolving under these rules
is followed by computer simulations and the probability densities of lineage
duration and size, among others, are computed. These densities show a
scale-free behaviour, in accordance with some conjectures in paleoevolution,
and suggesting a simple mechanism as explanation for the ubiquity of these
power-laws.Comment: 16 pages biophysics, including 7 figure
