    Fractional Generalization of Liouville Equations

    Full text link
    In this paper fractional generalization of Liouville equation is considered. We derive fractional analog of normalization condition for distribution function. Fractional generalization of the Liouvile equation for dissipative and Hamiltonian systems was derived from the fractional normalization condition. This condition is considered considered as a normalization condition for systems in fractional phase space. The interpretation of the fractional space is discussed.Comment: 9 pages, LaTe

    Review of Some Promising Fractional Physical Models

    Full text link
    Fractional dynamics is a field of study in physics and mechanics investigating the behavior of objects and systems that are characterized by power-law non-locality, power-law long-term memory or fractal properties by using integrations and differentiation of non-integer orders, i.e., by methods of the fractional calculus. This paper is a review of physical models that look very promising for future development of fractional dynamics. We suggest a short introduction to fractional calculus as a theory of integration and differentiation of non-integer order. Some applications of integro-differentiations of fractional orders in physics are discussed. Models of discrete systems with memory, lattice with long-range inter-particle interaction, dynamics of fractal media are presented. Quantum analogs of fractional derivatives and model of open nano-system systems with memory are also discussed.Comment: 38 pages, LaTe

    Fractional Derivative Regularization in QFT

    Full text link
    In this paper, we propose new regularization, where integer-order differential operators are replaced by fractional-order operators. Regularization for quantum field theories based on application of the Riesz fractional derivatives of non-integer orders is suggested. The regularized loop integrals depend on parameter that is the order alpha>0 of the fractional derivative. The regularization procedure is demonstrated for scalar massless fields in phi^4-theory on n-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space-time.Comment: 15 pages, LaTe
