In this paper, we consider a two-point boundary value problem with Caputo fractional derivative, where the second order derivative of the exact solution is unbounded. Based on the equivalent form of the main equation, a finite difference scheme is derived. The L∞ convergence of the difference system is discussed rigorously. The convergence rate in general improves previous results. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the theoretical results.

The fractional derivatives include nonlocal information and thus their calculation requires huge storage and computational cost for long time simulations. We present an efficient and high-order accurate numerical formula to speed up the evaluation of the Caputo fractional derivative based on the L2-1σ formula proposed in [A. Alikhanov, J. Comput. Phys., 280 (2015), pp. 424-438], and employing the sum-of-exponentials approximation to the kernel function appeared in the Caputo fractional derivative. Both theoretically and numerically, we prove that while applied to solving time fractional diffusion equations, our scheme not only has unconditional stability and high accuracy but also reduces the storage and computational cost.

In this paper, we discuss the dependence of the solutions on the parameters (order, initial function, right-hand function) of fractional neutral delay differential equations (FNDDEs). The corresponding theoretical results are given respectively. Furthermore, we present some numerical results that support our theoretical analysis.

In this paper we find the solution of linear as well as nonlinear fractional partial differential equations using discrete Adomian decomposition method. Here we develop the discrete Adomian decomposition method to find the solution of fractional discrete diffusion equation, nonlinear fractional discrete Schrodinger equation, fractional discrete Ablowitz-Ladik equation and nonlinear fractional discrete Burger’s equation. The obtained solution is verified by comparison with exact solution when α = 1.

In this paper, we investigate the dependence of the solutions on the parameters (order, initial function, right-hand function) of fractional delay differential equations (FDDEs) with the Caputo fractional derivative. Some results including an estimate of the solutions of FDDEs are given respectively. Theoretical results are verified by some numerical examples.
