A Stochastic Fractional Calculus with Applications to Variational Principles
We introduce a stochastic fractional calculus. As an application, we present a stochastic fractional calculus of variations, which generalizes the fractional calculus of variations to stochastic processes.

A Fractional Calculus of Variations for Multiple Integrals with Application to Vibrating String [PDF]
We introduce a fractional theory of the calculus of variations for multiple integrals. Our approach uses the recent notions of Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives and integrals in the sense of Jumarie. Main results provide fractional versions of the

Calculus of variations with fractional derivatives and fractional integrals
We prove Euler-Lagrange fractional equations and sufficient optimality conditions for problems of the calculus of variations with functionals containing both fractional derivatives and fractional integrals in the sense of Riemann-Liouville.

A Formulation of Noether's Theorem for Fractional Problems of the Calculus of Variations
Fractional (or non-integer) differentiation is an important concept both from theoretical and applicational points of view. The study of problems of the calculus of variations with fractional derivatives is a rather recent subject, the main result being ...

Discrete direct methods in the fractional calculus of variations
Finite differences, as a subclass of direct methods in the calculus of variations, consist in discretizing the objective functional using appropriate approximations for derivatives that appear in the problem. This article generalizes the same idea for fractional variational problems.

Analysis of hybrid fractional integro-differential equations with application to cholera dynamics [PDF]
This study establishes the existence of solutions for a class of fractional hybrid integro-differential equations governed by the $$\vartheta$$ -Caputo derivative, subject to slit-strip boundary conditions.

Fractional Calculus of Variations: A Novel Way to Look At It [PDF]
In this work we look at the original fractional calculus of variations problem in a somewhat different way. As a simple consequence, we show that a fractional generalization of a classical problem has a solution without any restrictions on the derivative-order $ $.
