Abstract
Fractional calculus provides some fractional operators for us to model different real-world phenomena mathematically. One of these important study fields is the mathematical model of the elastic beam changes. More precisely, in this paper, based on the behavior patterns of an elastic beam, we consider the generalized sequential boundary value problems of the Navier difference equations by using the post-quantum fractional derivatives of the Caputo-like type. We discuss on the existence theory for solutions of the mentioned -difference Navier problems in two single-valued and set-valued versions. We use the main properties of the -operators in this regard. Application of the fixed points of the --contractions along with the endpoints of the multi-valued functions play a fundamental role to prove the existence results. Finally in two examples, we validate our models and theoretical results by giving numerical models of the generalized sequential -difference Navier problems.

1. Introduction
An important part of mathematics, which focuses on operators of arbitrary real orders and is known as fractional calculus, has brought significant theoretical and practical achievements and results in various fields of engineering and modeling. The main reason for emphasizing the importance of the results of this field can be found in various studies that have been conducted in recent years on topics such as the solutions of fractional differential equations (continuous and discrete) and their solution techniques and related algorithms. For example, fractional order techniques and models are abundantly seen in mathematical structures defined in economics, medical simulations, physics, image processing, clinical disciplines, etc., [1,2,3]. If we want to discuss examples, we can point out to the exact results of fractional algorithms and methods that clearly show their power in finding approximate numerical solutions and even the existence of analytical solutions of fractional equations. That is why fractional order modeling replaces integer order modeling and simulate solutions with the least error. We recommend some sources in this regard for finding more information [4,5,6,7,8,9,10].
In 1910, a mathematician named Jackson [11,12] began a systematic and classified study of quantum calculus, which was later abbreviated as -calculus. In this new calculus, most of the basic operators are defined without using the concept of limit, an idea that opens a new path in mathematics. In the first step, -calculus established its place in physics. For example, Fock [13] defined a kind of quantum difference equations and proved that hydrogen atoms are symmetric. Mathematicians then investigated various properties of -series and -operators, which led to the development of new concepts in the theory of quantum mechanics, orthogonal polynomials and hypergeometric functions and combinatorics [14,15]. Moreover, see other papers in this regard such as [16,17,18,19,20].
As the quantum calculus continued to develop and expand, a new calculus emerged that depends on two parameters and is known as post-quantum calculus or -calculus. Of course, this new calculus is not a real generalization of -calculus and it cannot be obtained by placing instead of , but its rules and concepts are defined in such a way that assuming , we can achieve the concepts of -calculus.
The early and fundamental studies of -calculus began with an article by Chakrabarti and Jagannathan [21]. Hypergeometric series [22], approximation methods [23,24], Bézier surfaces and curves [25], physical models [26], Lie groups are some of those theories in which -operators play an important role. In the following, Sadjang [27] proved the fundamental theorems of -calculus and introduced the Taylor’s -formula. In 2018 and 2019, Cheng et al. [28] and Milovanovic et al. [29] extended the -Gamma and -Beta functions, respectively. Soontharanon et al. combined -calculus with fractional calculus and established fractional -operators and their properties [30]. In the last three or four years, mathematicians have expanded their studies to the areas of existence theory, and with the help of the important tool of fixed point, they have proved the uniqueness of the solution for various types of post-quantum boundary value problems (BVPs) in the form of fractional -difference equations.
Soontharanon et al. [31], in 2020, continued their studies on solutions of an -th order -integro-difference problem of the Riemann-Liouville-like type with the -Robin conditions given by
with so that . Also, by assuming , they consider the nonlinear continuous function and continuous functions and so that
Moreover, is the -th order -derivative of the Riemann-Liouville-like type with .
Neang et al. [32] conducted another analysis on the existence results for a nonlinear -th order -difference problem of the Caputo-like type with the separated boundary conditions, formulated by
so that and are the 1st order and -th order -difference and -derivative of the Caputo-like type, respectively, and .
Once again in 2022, the same authors [33] defined a new function to simplify the domain of it, and to study the existence theorems, modeled the -th order -difference problem of the Caputo-like type as
with the above notations and -operators. For more information on newly conducted studies in the context of -calculus, refer to [34,35,36,37,38,39].
In order to fully understand the nature and dynamics of phenomena in the real world, modern science needs mathematical models of these phenomena and processes. Based on such exact mathematical models that are defined by operators and other mathematical concepts, we can examine the dynamical and behavioral structure of various engineering, mechanical and physical systems in laboratory environments and generalize the results to real dimensions in the surrounding world [40,41,42].
One of the important mathematical models that has attracted the attention of engineers in recent years and is used for technical simulations in advanced and complex structures is the mathematical dynamical model based on elastic beam. In huge engineering structures such as building structures, towers, bridges, aviation industry, giant ocean-going ships and spaceships, the application of elastic beam technology is considered one of the basic necessities. Based on this, from a mathematical point of view, the boundary value problem including a fourth-order Navier differential equation and two-point boundary conditions was modeled by Reiss et al. [43] in 1976, who studied the dynamic behavior of elastic beam changes, and its form is as follows
provided that the source function is continuous. In 1986, Aftabizadeh [44] transformed (1) into a 2- order integro–differential equation by assuming E to be a bounded nonlinear function, and proved the existence theorems under the Schauder’s fixed point theorem. In 1997, Ma et al. [45] studied the Navier problem (1) and analyzed it based on the lower and upper solutions. Bai et al. [46], in 2004, adopted a monotone technique for the lower and upper solutions of the given beam elastic problem (1). Bachar et al. [47] extended the fractional version of the beam elastic problem (1) of the Riemann-Liouville type and completed their theoretical analysis on the existence and positivity of the unique solutions of the fractional Navier system given by
provided , and specify the fractional derivatives of the Riemann-Liouville type and . If , then (2) reduces to integer order problem (1).
In 2021, Etemad et al. [48] discussd a new sequential generalized fractional -Navier problem given by
so that , and . Moreover, here is the fractional -derivative of the Caputo-like type.
Based on the integer order Navier Equation (1) and other aforementioned models, we inspired to study a new sequential -model of the elastic beam with -Navier difference equation of the Caputo-like type
and the -Navier difference inclusion of the Caputo-like type
where , , , and the -derivative of the Caputo-like type is denoted by . We consider and as the continuous single-valued arbitrary function and multivalued arbitrary function, respectively, with some conditions.
The main contribution of this paper can be expressed as follows: here, we have extended the standard model of the elastic beam equation to two fractional structures of Navier -difference equation and -difference inclusion for the first time, and aslo, we have presented our numerical and theoretical results to study the existence of solutions for new sequential -models (4) and (5) of the elastic beam. It is clear that if , , and , we obtain the standard Navier model (1) of the elastic beam. Unlike many similar papers in the field of existence theory, we use a set of non-decreasing mappings and special contractions and endpoints to prove the existence of the solutions of the above two systems. The presented model of elastic beam based on the -operators helps us to study some behaviors of fractional difference systems without the limit notion, and this can be an important advantage for the fast and easy simulation of the real phenomena in the context of discrete-type -calculus.
We have prepared the next sections of the paper as follows: Section 2 aims to recall some basic notions of fractional -calculus. Section 3 begins with a proposition for computing some -integrals, and then, continues with a lemma which formulates the solution of the generalized sequential -Navier problems (4) and (5) in the form of an -integral equation. In the following, this section uses the well known fixed point theorem attributed to Krasnoselskii [49] and a special set of the operators proposed by Samet et al. [50] to study the existence theory for the solutions of single-valued operators. Section 4 considers the generalized sequential -difference Navier inclusion problem (5) and examines the same existence theory for the solutions of (5), but this time, by applying the methods proposed by Mohammadi et al. [51] and also, by the approximate endpoint property. In Section 5, we assign our focus to validate the theorems proved in the previous Section 3 and Section 4. The last section concludes our study by giving some remarks and future ideas.

6. Conclusions
In this paper, we dealt with two different cases of an elastic beam modeling in the context of the notions of -calculus. In fact, in the framework of the existing mathematical definitions related to the single-valued and multi-valued functions, we generalized the fourth-order differential equation of the elastic beam changes to the two -difference Navier equation and -difference Navier inclusion, separately. Of course, we emphasize that the main goal of this study is to investigate the existence results of the solutions for both systems, not to obtain a new method for finding numerical -solutions. We recalled the main definitions about the --contractions and -admissible functions, and then, by using the fixed point theorems and endpoint theorems, proved our desired theorems about the existence property of the solutions. Based on these results, one can extend the studies later for defining new -integral transforms or other new -algorithms to approximate the numerical solutions with the help of the real numerical data.
