The fractional calculus is useful to model non-local phenomena. We construct a method to evaluate the fractional Caputo derivative by means of a simple explicit quadratic segmentary interpolation. This method yields to numerical resolution…
We study the local and global versions of the convexity, which is closely related to the problem of extending a convex function on a non-convex domain to a convex function on the convex hull of the domain and beyond the convex hull. We also…

In this paper we obtain new estimates of the sequential Caputo fractional derivatives of a function at its extremum points. We derive comparison principles for the linear fractional differential equations, and apply these principles to…
A version of fractional diffusion on bounded domains, subject to 'homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions' is derived from a kinetic transport model with homogeneous inflow boundary conditions. For nonconvex domains, the result differs…
