Fractional calculus is a generalization of classical theories of integration and differentiation to arbitrary order (i.e., real or complex numbers). In the last two decades, this new mathematical modeling approach has been widely used to…
A fractal can be simply understood as a set or pattern in which there are far more small things than large ones, e.g., far more small geographic features than large ones on the earth surface, or far more large-scale maps than small-scale…
One of the motivations for using fractional calculus in physical systems is due to fact that many times, in the space and time variables we are dealing which exhibit coarse-grained phenomena, meaning that infinitesimal quantities cannot be…
A paradigmatic nonhyperbolic dynamical system exhibiting deterministic diffusion is the smooth nonlinear climbing sine map. We find that this map generates fractal hierarchies of normal and anomalous diffusive regions as functions of the…
Fractals are geometric shapes that can display complex and self-similar patterns found in nature (e.g., clouds and plants). Recent works in visual recognition have leveraged this property to create random fractal images for model…
