Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Fractional calculus is a sub-branch of applied mathematics, and fractional analysis has become an absorbing field for scientists and mathematicians due to its widespread applications in modeling, engineering, mathematical biology, financial modeling, and fluid flow.

Furthermore, the combined study of convex analysis and integral inequalities in the frame of fractional operators presents a captivating field of research within mathematics. Convexity and integral inequalities have remarkable uses in probability, optimization theory, information technology, stochastic processes, statistics, integral operator theory, and numerical integration.

We invite researchers to contribute their original and high-quality research and review papers to this Special Issue, with a focus on fractional differential equations and inequalities.

In this study, we introduce a novel local fractional integral identity related to the Gaussian two-point left Radau rule. Based on this identity, we establish some new fractal inequalities for functions whose first-order local fractional derivatives are generalized convex and concave. The obtained [...] Read more.
In this study, we introduce a novel local fractional integral identity related to the Gaussian two-point left Radau rule. Based on this identity, we establish some new fractal inequalities for functions whose first-order local fractional derivatives are generalized convex and concave. The obtained results not only represent an extension of certain previously established findings to fractal sets but also a refinement of these when the fractal dimension μ is equal to one. Finally, to support our findings, we present a practical application to demonstrate the effectiveness of our results. Full article

In this paper, the tempered Ψ–Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative and the tempered Ψ–Caputo fractional derivative of order n1<α<nN are introduced for Cn1–functions. A nonlinear version of the second Henry–Gronwall inequality for integral inequalities with the tempered Ψ–Hilfer fractional integral is derived. By using this inequality, an existence and uniqueness result and a sufficient condition for the non-existence of blow-up solutions of nonlinear tempered Ψ–Caputo fractional differential equations are proved. Illustrative examples are given. Full article

In this work, analytic solutions of initial value problems for fractional Langevin equations involving Hilfer fractional derivatives and variable coefficients are studied. Firstly, the equivalence of an initial value problem to an integral equation is proved. Secondly, the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the above initial value problem are obtained without a contractive assumption. Finally, a formula of explicit solutions for the proposed problem is derived. By using similar arguments, corresponding conclusions for the case involving Riemann–Liouville fractional derivatives and variable coefficients are obtained. Moreover, the nonlinear case is discussed. Two examples are provided to illustrate theoretical results. Full article

This paper introduces the optimal auxiliary function method (OAFM) for solving a nonlinear system of Belousov–Zhabotinsky equations. The system is characterized by its complex dynamics and is treated using the Caputo operator and concepts from fractional calculus. The OAFM provides a systematic approach to obtain approximate analytical solutions by constructing an auxiliary function. By optimizing the parameters of the auxiliary function, an approximate solution is derived that closely matches the behavior of the original system. The effectiveness and accuracy of the OAFM are demonstrated through numerical simulations and comparisons with existing methods. Fractional calculus enhances the understanding and modeling of the nonlinear dynamics in the Belousov–Zhabotinsky system. This study contributes to fractional calculus and nonlinear dynamics, offering a powerful tool for analyzing and solving complex systems such as the Belousov–Zhabotinsky equation. Full article

A review of the results on the fractional Fejér-type inequalities, associated with different families of convexities and different kinds of fractional integrals, is presented. In the numerous families of convexities, it includes classical convex functions, s-convex functions, quasi-convex functions, strongly convex functions, harmonically convex functions, harmonically quasi-convex functions, quasi-geometrically convex functions, p-convex functions, convexity with respect to strictly monotone function, co-ordinated-convex functions, (θ,hm)p-convex functions, and h-preinvex functions. Included in the fractional integral operators are Riemann–Liouville fractional integral, (kp)-Riemann–Liouville, k-Riemann–Liouville fractional integral, Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals with respect to another function, the weighted fractional integrals of a function with respect to another function, fractional integral operators with the exponential kernel, Hadamard fractional integral, Raina fractional integral operator, conformable integrals, non-conformable fractional integral, and Katugampola fractional integral. Finally, Fejér-type fractional integral inequalities for invex functions and (p,q)-calculus are also included. Full article
