Abstract

In this paper, we derive sufficient conditions ensuring the existence of a weak solution uu for a tempered fractional Euler-Lagrange equations Lx(u,CDa+α,σu,t)+Dbα,σ(Ly(u,CDa+α,σu,t))=0 \frac{\partial L}{\partial x}(u,{^C}\mathbb{D}_{a^+}^{\alpha, \sigma} u, t) + \mathbb{D}_{b^-}^{\alpha, \sigma}\left(\frac{\partial L}{\partial y}(u, {^C}\mathbb{D}_{a^+}^{\alpha, \sigma}u, t) \right) = 0 on a real interval [a,b][a,b] and CDa+α,σ,Dbα,σ{^C}\mathbb{D}_{a^+}^{\alpha, \sigma}, \mathbb{D}_{b^-}^{\alpha, \sigma} are the left and right Caputo and Riemann-Liouville tempered fractional derivatives respectively of order α\alpha. Furthermore, we study a fractional tempered version of Noether theorem and we provide a very explicit expression of a constant of motion in terms of symmetry group and Lagrangian for fractional problems of calculus of variations. Finally we study a mountain pass type solution of the cited problem.
