Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fractional differential equations are extensively applied in the mathematical modelling of real-world phenomena that occur in scientific and engineering disciplines. This Special Issue will cover recent developments in the theory and applications of fractional differential equations, inclusions, and inequalities, as well as systems of fractional differential equations with Riemann–Liouville, Caputo, and Hadamard derivatives, or other generalized fractional derivatives, subject to various initial and boundary conditions. We welcome contributions pertaining to problems such as the existence, uniqueness, multiplicity, and nonexistence of solutions or positive solutions; the stability of solutions; and numerical computations for these models.
The articles published in the first and second volumes of this Special Issue are listed below:

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Fractal and Fractional is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
