In solving diffusion problems, it is common to consider the finite difference equation to be an approximation to the differential equation. Nevertheless, history shows that the finite difference equation is primitive and that the…
We continue the study of the center problem for the ordinary differential equation $v'=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}a_{i}(x)v^{i+1}$ started in our earlier papers. In this paper we present the highlights of the algebraic theory of centers.
We obtain necessary optimality conditions for variational problems with a Lagrangian depending on a Caputo fractional derivative, a fractional and an indefinite integral. Main results give fractional Euler-Lagrange type equations and…
We begin with a treatment of the Caputo time-fractional diffusion equation, by using the Laplace transform, to obtain a Volterra intego-differential equation where we may examine the weakly singular nature of this convolution…
We discuss the derivation and the solutions of integro-differential equations (variable-order time-fractional diffusion equations) following as continuous limits for lattice continuous time random walk schemes with power-law waiting-time…
This paper provides a description of an algebraic setting for the Lagrangian formalism over graded algebras and is intended as the necessary first step towards the noncommutative C-spectral sequence (variational bicomplex). A noncommutative…

The notion of lambda-symmetries, originally introduced by C. Muriel and J.L. Romero, is extended to the case of systems of first-order ODE's (and of dynamical systems in particular). It is shown that the existence of a symmetry of this type…
We consider finite-dimensional complex Lie algebras admitting a periodic derivation, i.e., a nonsingular derivation which has finite multiplicative order. We show that such Lie algebras are at most two-step nilpotent and give several…
