Fractional Order Systems: Deterministic and Stochastic Analysis II

Dear Colleagues,

The field of fractional dynamic systems has become very popular and already attracted many scientists and research groups from around the world. Its main advantage is in the modeling of several complex phenomena, with the best results in numerous seemingly diverse and widespread areas of science and engineering. Since such developments are currently considered essential in applied sciences, it is very important to focus on possible novelties of the most promising new directions and open problems that have been formulated based on modern techniques and approaches indicated in the latest scientific achievements.  

Additionally, the theory of stochastic processes is considered to be an important contribution to probability theory, and continues to be an active topic of research for both theoretical reasons and applications. The word “stochastic” is used to describe many terms and objects in mathematics. Examples include the stochastic matrix, which describes a stochastic process known as a Markov process; and stochastic calculus, which involves differential equations and integrals based on stochastic processes such as the Wiener process, also called the Brownian motion process.

In this open call for papers we strictly invite strong and interesting contributions providing original results which have been obtained from modern computational techniques of theoretical, experimental, and applied aspects of both deterministic and stochastic fractional dynamic systems. We also strongly encourage young researchers/PhD students who have achieved exciting results while supervised and guided by their scientific advisors to submit their works to this Special Issue. It is necessary that papers have a high-level mathematical ground. Note that submitted papers should explicitly meet the Aims and Scope of the Fractal Fract journal.

Topics to be included are:

• Appropriate fractional derivative senses in applied sciences;
• Computational methods for fractional dynamical systems;
• Fractional inverse problems: modeling and simulation;
• Cancer dynamic fractional systems: optimality and modeling;
