“New trends in fractional calculus: Theory and applications”

by

Dumitru Baleanu

(Çankaya University)

Abstract: Fractional calculus deals with the study of so-called fractional order
integral and derivative operators over real or complex domains as well as their applications. Fractional calculus has its root in the question of the extension of meaning.  In recent decades the fractional calculus has won more and more interest in mathematics and in various fields of applied sciences.
In my talk I am going to present the new trends in the area of fractional calculus. Several recent applications of this type of calculus in economics, bioengineering, physics and engineering will be illustrated.
