It is well known that investigation on exact solutions of nonlinear fractional partial differential equations (PDEs) is a very difficult work compared with integer‐order nonlinear PDEs. In this paper, based on the separation method of semifixed variables and integral bifurcation method, a combinational method is proposed. By using this new method, a class of generalized time‐fractional thin‐film equations are studied. Under two kinds of definitions of fractional derivatives, exact solutions of two generalized time‐fractional thin‐film equations are investigated respectively. Different kinds of exact solutions are obtained and their dynamic properties are discussed. Compared to the results in the existing references, the types of solutions obtained in this paper are abundant and very different from those in the existing references. Investigation shows that the solutions of the model defined by Riemann–Liouville differential operator converge faster than those defined by Caputo differential operator. It is also found that the profiles of some solutions are very similar to solitons, but they are not true soliton solutions. In order to visually show the dynamic properties of these solutions, the profiles of some representative exact solutions are illustrated by 3D graphs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This research paper introduces a novel approach to deriving traveling wave solutions (TWSs) for the Caputo-fractional Klein–Gordon equations. This research presents a distinct methodological advancement by introducing TWSs of a particular time-fractional partial differential equation, utilizing a non-local fractional operator, specifically the Caputo derivative. To achieve our goal, a novel transformation is considered, that converts a time-fractional partial differential equation into fractional ordinary differential equations, enabling analytical solutions through various analytical methods. This paper employs the homotopy analysis method to achieve the target objectives. To demonstrate the efficiency and applicability of the proposed transform and method, two examples are discussed and analyzed in figures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, Kudryashov and modified Kudryashov methods are implemented for the first time to compute new exact traveling wave solutions of the space-time fractional (3+1)-dimensional Calogero–Bogoyavlenskii–Schiff (CBS) equation and Calogero–Bogoyavlenskii–Schiff and Bogoyavlensky Konopelchenko (CBS-BK) equation. With the help of wave transformation, the aforementioned fractional differential equations are converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The purpose of this paper is to devise novel exact solutions for the space-time-fractional (3+1)-dimensional CBS and the space-time-fractional CBS-BK equations by utilizing the Kudryashov and modified Kudryashov techniques. The solutions, thus, acquired are demonstrated in figures by choosing appropriate values for the parameters. The solutions derived take the form of various wave patterns, including the kink type, the anti-kink type and the singular kink wave solutions. The obtained solutions are indeed beneficial to analyze the dynamic behavior of fractional CBS and CBS-BK equations in describing the interesting physical phenomena and mechanisms. The obtained solutions are entirely new and can be considered as a generalization of the existing results in the ordinary derivative case. The techniques presented here are very simple, efficacious and plausible and hence can be employed to attain new exact solutions for fractional PDEs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: Fractional Fokker-Planck equation (FFPE) and time fractional coupled Boussinesq-Burger equations (TFCBBEs) play important roles in the fields of solute transport, fluid dynamics, respectively. Although there are many methods for solving the approximate solution, simple and effective methods are more preferred. This paper aims to utilize Laplace Adomian decomposition method (LADM) to construct approximate solutions for these two types of equations and gives some examples of numerical calculations, which can prove the validity of LADM by comparing the error between the calculated results and the exact solution. Design/methodology/approach: This paper analyzes and investigates the time-space fractional partial differential equations based on the LADM method in the sense of Caputo fractional derivative, which is a combination of the Laplace transform and the Adomian decomposition method. LADM method was first proposed by Khuri in 2001. Many partial differential equations which can describe the physical phenomena are solved by applying LADM and it has been used extensively to solve approximate solutions of partial differential and fractional partial differential equations. Findings: This paper obtained an approximate solution to the FFPE and TFCBBEs by using the LADM. A number of numerical examples and graphs are used to compare the errors between the results and the exact solutions. The results show that LADM is a simple and effective mathematical technique to construct the approximate solutions of nonlinear time-space fractional equations in this work. Originality/value: This paper verifies the effectiveness of this method by using the LADM to solve the FFPE and TFCBBEs. In addition, these two equations are very meaningful, and this paper will be helpful in the study of atmospheric diffusion, shallow water waves and other areas. And this paper also generalizes the drift and diffusion terms of the FFPE equation to the general form, which provides a great convenience for our future studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we study the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for a class of a fractional differential equation system of Riemann–Liouville type on infinite intervals with infinite-point boundary conditions. First, the higher-order equation is reduced to the lower-order equation, and then it is transformed into the equivalent integral equation. Secondly, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for each fixed parameter λ > 0 by using the mixed monotone operators fixed-point theorem. The results obtained in this paper show that the unique positive solution has good properties: continuity, monotonicity, iteration, and approximation. Finally, an example is given to demonstrate the application of our main results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we study fractional p 1 (x , ⋅) & p 2 (x , ⋅) -Laplacian Schrödinger-type equations for Robin boundary conditions. Under some suitable assumptions, we show that two solutions exist using the mountain pass lemma and Ekeland's variational principle. Then, the existence of infinitely many solutions is derived by applying the fountain theorem and the Krasnoselskii genus theory, respectively. Different from previous results, the topic of this paper is the Robin boundary conditions in R N ∖ Ω ‾ for fractional order p 1 (x , ⋅) & p 2 (x , ⋅) -Laplacian Schrödinger-type equations, including concave-convex nonlinearities, which has not been studied before. In addition, two examples are given to illustrate our results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Grain-oriented silicon steel (GO FeSi) laminations are vital components for efficient energy conversion in electromagnetic devices. While traditionally optimized for power frequencies of 50/60 Hz, the pursuit of higher frequency operation (f ≥ 200 Hz) promises enhanced power density. This paper introduces a model for estimating GO FeSi laminations' magnetic behavior under these elevated operational frequencies. The proposed model combines the Maxwell diffusion equation and a material law derived from a fractional differential equation, capturing the viscoelastic characteristics of the magnetization process. Remarkably, the model's dynamical contribution, characterized by only two parameters, achieves a notable 4.8% Euclidean relative distance error across the frequency spectrum from 50 Hz to 1 kHz. The paper's initial section offers an exhaustive description of the model, featuring comprehensive comparisons between simulated and measured data. Subsequently, a methodology is presented for the localized segregation of magnetic losses into three conventional categories: hysteresis, classical, and excess, delineated across various tested frequencies. Further leveraging the model's predictive capabilities, the study extends to investigating the very high-frequency regime, elucidating the spatial distribution of loss contributions. The application of proportional–iterative learning control facilitates the model's adaptation to standard characterization conditions, employing sinusoidal imposed flux density. The paper deliberates on the implications of GO FeSi behavior under extreme operational conditions, offering insights and reflections essential for understanding and optimizing magnetic core performance in high-frequency applications.

The construction of the fourth-order 2-point Fractional Block Backward Differentiation Formula (2FBBDF(4)) to solve the fractional order differential equations (FDEs) is presented in this paper. The method is developed using the fractional linear multistep method (FLMM) linked with the linear difference operator. This paper aims to approximate the fractional order problems via 2FBBDF(4), which is normally used to solve ordinary differential equations. The criteria for the stability of the method are analyzed in order to solve FDE problems. Consequently, the method is determined to be A-stable for different values of α within the interval (0, 1). Then, Newton's iteration is implemented in this method to solve the problems. Multiple numerical examples of linear, nonlinear, and system FDEs are provided for the scenario where the order α lies within the range of 0 and 1. Ultimately, the numerical results confirm that the proposed method performs at a similar level to the existing methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The normalized fractional derivatives (NFDs) are a normalization of the existing fractional derivatives (FDs) which admit geometrical meanings. They have finite ordinary derivatives at the initial point, which cause smoothness of solutions for related fractional differential equations (FDEs). For FDs with non-singular kernels, the NFDs do not vanish at the starting point, in general, and therefore related FDEs admit solutions without the need to impose extra conditions. In this paper, we consider FDEs with the normalized Caputo–Fabrizio derivative of Caputo type. We show in closed forms the solutions of related FDEs and show that the Cauchy problem with the NFD admits a nontrivial solution. We also define the higher-order NFDs and show that related FDEs can be solved by transforming them to integro-differential equations with integer orders. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we are concerned with a stochastic semilinear differential equations driven by both Brownian motion and fractional Brownian motion. Firstly, we establish an inequality for the distance between finite‐dimensional distributions of a random process at two different moments. Then, using the properties of stochastic integrals, fixed point theorems, and based on this inequality, we establish the existence and uniqueness of Besicovich almost automorphic solutions in finite‐dimensional distributions for this type of semilinear equation. Finally, we provide an example to demonstrate the effectiveness of our results. Our results are new to stochastic differential equations driven by Brownian motion or stochastic differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper deals with a two-person zero-sum differential game for a dynamical system described by a Caputo fractional differential equation of order α ∈ (0 , 1) and a Bolza cost functional. The differential game is associated to the Cauchy problem for the path-dependent Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman–Isaacs equation with so-called fractional coinvariant derivatives of order α and the corresponding right-end boundary condition. A notion of a viscosity solution of the Cauchy problem is introduced, and the value functional of the differential game is characterized as a unique viscosity solution of this problem.

By using the intrinsic properties of deformable fractional calculus and employing precise analytical techniques, we have successfully deduced the analytical solution of the model. To further elucidate our main findings, we present detailed examples and perform corresponding numerical simulations. Remarkably, in contrast to the prevailing literature, the fractional logistic differential equation model examined herein incorporates a novel feature of variable coefficient intrinsic growth rates. Therefore, this work not only extends previous research results but also enriches the literature in the related field [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work proposes an iterative RBF-based method for solving nonlinear time-fractional Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers (BBMB) equations in arbitrary domains. The method relies on a newly developed approach for solving fractional ordinary differential equations (FODEs). To tackle the nonlinearity of the problem, we employ a simple quasi-linearization procedure. Subsequently, the solution is constructed using modified radial basis functions (RBFs), where the FODEs emerge automatically. The temporal domain is discretized using the Müntz polynomial basis, while the spatial domain discretization is achieved through the meshless backward substitution method. By conducting a series of problems in one, two, and three spatial dimensions, we verify the accuracy, efficiency, and robustness of the proposed scheme, and compare the computed results with references from the literature. The goal of this paper is to demonstrate the promising accuracy and efficiency of the proposed technique for solving time-fractional BBMB equations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ordinary nonlinear differential equations with classical and fractional derivatives are used to simulate several real-world problems. Nonetheless, numerical approaches are used to acquire their solutions. While various have been proposed, they are susceptible to both disadvantages and advantages. In this paper, we propose a more accurate numerical system for solving nonlinear differential equations with classical and Caputo–Fabrizio derivatives by combining two concepts: the parametrized method and the predictor–corrector method. We gave theoretical analyses to demonstrate the method’s correctness, as well as several illustrated examples for both scenarios. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this research paper, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of solutions for neutral functional differential equations with sequential fractional orders, specifically involving the G -Caputo operator. To obtain the desired results, we employ the Banach fixed point theorem (BFPT), a nonlinear variation of the Leray-Schauder fixed point theorem (SFPT), and the Krasnoselski fixed point theorem (KFPT). Additionally, we provide illustrative examples that demonstrate the key findings. Furthermore, we address a scenario where an initial value integral condition is considered. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper proposes a method to solve a 2D time-fractional parabolic equation on arbitrary domains using an RBF partition of unity procedure based on a non-uniform time-stepping framework. The proposed method involves partitioning the main domain into overlapping subdomains, computing local approximations on each subdomain, and joining them together by PU weights to obtain a global approximation. This approach enhances stability, reduces computational costs, and replaces an ill-conditioned linear system with several small well-conditioned linear systems. To handle the weak singularity near the initial time, a time-graded mesh is used to obtain a non-uniform time-stepping scheme, which increases the temporal convergence rate. The convergence analysis of the method is examined to obtain an error bound for the local approximation. Numerical tests are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper presents a theoretical investigation of the inherent irreversibility in unsteady fractional time derivative mixed convection of a reacting nanofluid with heat and mass transfer mechanism over a slippery permeable plate embedded in a Darcy–Forchheimer porous medium. The model fractional partial differential equations are obtained based on conservation laws and numerically solved using the implicit finite difference scheme. The study displays and discusses the effects of various emerging parameters on the overall flow structure, such as velocity profiles, temperature distribution, nanoparticles concentration profiles, skin friction, Nusselt number, Sherwood number, entropy generation rate, and Bejan number. It was found that an increase in dimensionless time and fractional parameters leads to a decrease in both the entropy generation rate and the Bejan number. The study revealed that fractional order derivatives can capture intrinsic memory effects, non‐local behaviour, and anomalous diffusion in the nanofluid flow process. This can ultimately lead to better engineering system design and control. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a numerical technique to solve the generalized fractional Lane–Emden–Fowler equation. We use the Haar wavelet technique to approximate the solution of the generalized fractional Lane–Emden–Fowler equation.

We also showed the convergence of this method by establishing an upper bound. The rate of convergence is also discussed in our algorithm. Many numerical examples have been taken, and the results of those numerical experiments have been written in tabular form. We also documented the experiments graphically to show the efficiency and accuracy of this method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we present a highly efficient analytical method that combines the Laplace transform and the residual power series approach to approximate solutions of nonlinear time-fractional partial differential equations (PDEs).

In this paper, an effective numerical Bernstein polynomials operational matrix is exploited to study the nonlinear forced vibration of fractional viscoelastic curved beam with viscoelastic nonlinear boundary conditions, for the first time. The Caputo fractional derivative is employed to incorporate viscoelastic material having nonlinear behavior. Based on Euler–Bernoulli beam theory and von Kármán geometric nonlinearity, the governing equation of viscoelastic curved beam which is a nonlinear integro-partial fractional differential equation is introduced. Based on the collocation method of Bernstein polynomials approximation, the generalized integer-order operational matrices of differentiation and integration as well as fractional-order operational matrix of differentiation are derived. Using Bernstein polynomials operational matrices (BPOM), the nonlinear static problem is discretized; then, it is solved via Newton's method. To compute the linear vibration mode, the linear vibration problem is discretized via BPOM and it is solved as a linear eigenvalue problem. Discretized by the Galerkin approximation, the fractional-order nonlinear integro-partial differential equation is transformed into a nonlinear fractional-order duffing-type equation. The fractional-order duffing equation is discretized using BPOM resulting nonlinear eigenvalue problem, which can be easily solved by pseudo-arc length continuation algorithm. The effects of the Caputo fractional derivative order, foundation parameters, amplitude of initial curvature, viscoelastic parameters and amplitude of excitation force on the nonlinear forced vibration of the viscoelastic beam are investigated through a detailed parametric study. The proposed procedure is supportive in the analysis and design of curved viscoelastic structure with non-classical viscoelastic boundary conditions under the dynamic mechanical loads.

The objective of this paper is investigating the numerical solution and optical phenomena of highly nonlinear fractional-order partial differential equation namely fractional order Lakshmanan–Porsezian–Daniel model, incorporating spatio-temporal dispersion effects. The fractional derivative is considered in Caputo sense because this is the most crucial tool for working with integer order models in a fractional sense under the right subsidiary conditions, it has many benefits. To achieve the objective of this study, the Improved Adomian decomposition method has been utilized. This method is known for effectively handling nonlinearities and fractional derivatives iteratively. The obtained soliton solutions are presented graphically. We conduct a comparative analysis at ρ = 1 , focusing on the bright optical soliton solutions. To the best of our knowledge, there have not been previously reported identical or related findings. By comparing the obtained results with the exact solution, the accuracy of the considered method is examined. The applied method is explicit, efficient, and user-friendly for managing a wider range of fractional order nonlinear models, as demonstrated by the numerical outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, the Caputo fractional derivative is assumed to be the prey–predator model. In order to create Caputo fractional differential equations for the prey–predator model, a discretization process is first used. The fixed points of the model are categorized topologically. We identify requirements for the fixed points of the suggested prey–predator model's local asymptotic stability. We demonstrate analytically that, under specific parametric conditions, a fractional order prey–predator model supports both a Neimark–Sacker (NS) bifurcation and a Flip bifurcation. We present evidence for NS and Flip bifurcations using central manifold and bifurcation theory. The parameter values and the initial conditions have been found to have a profound impact on the dynamical behavior of the fractional order prey–predator model. As the bifurcation parameter is increased, the system displays chaotic behavior. Numerical simulations are shown to demonstrate chaotic behaviors like bifurcations, phase portraits, invariant closed cycles, and attractive chaotic sets in addition to validating analytical conclusions. The suggested prey–predator dynamical system's chaotic behavior will be controlled by the OGY and hybrid control methodology, which will also visualize the chaotic state for various biological parameters.

In this paper, an SIRS epidemic model using Grunwald–Letnikov fractional-order derivative is formulated with the help of a nonlinear system of fractional differential equations to analyze the effects of fear in the population during the outbreak of deadly infectious diseases. The criteria for the spread or extinction of the disease are derived and discussed on the basis of the basic reproduction number. The condition for the existence of Hopf bifurcation is discussed considering fractional order as a bifurcation parameter. Additionally, using the Grunwald–Letnikov approximation, the simulation is carried out to confirm the validity of analytic results graphically. Using the real data of COVID-19 in India recorded during the second wave from 15 May 2021 to 15 December 2021, we estimate the model parameters and find that the fractional-order model gives the closer forecast of the disease than the classical one. Both the analytical results and numerical simulations presented in this study suggest different policies for controlling or eradicating many infectious diseases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a fractional differential equation with integral conditions is studied. The fractional differential equation is transformed into an integral equation with two initial values, where the initial values needs to ensure that the exact solution satisfies the integral boundary conditions. A graded mesh based on a priori information of the exact solution is constructed and the linear interpolation is used to approximate the functions in the fractional integral. The rigorous analysis about the convergence of the discretization scheme is derived by using the truncation error estimate techniques and the generalized Grönwall inequality. A quasi-Newton method is used to determine the initial values so that the numerical solution satisfies two integral boundary conditions within a prescribed precision. It is shown that the scheme is second-order convergent, which improves the results on the uniform mesh. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Thus, our method is convenient to implement. Furthermore, the numerical results show that the proposed method performs better compared to the existing ones. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The notion of A -condensing operators via the measure of noncompactness is proposed, which retains the existing classes of condensing operators. Results concerning the existence of the best proximity point (pair) of cyclic (noncyclic) A -condensing operators along with the coupled best proximity-point theorem for cyclic A -condensing operators have been formulated. An application to a (k , ℷ) -Hilfer fractional differential equation of order 2 < p < 3 , type q ∈ [ 0 , 1 ] satistfying some boundary conditions is presented. The paper is the first to investigate the optimum solution of such a generalized fractional differential equation. The hypothesis involved in the investigation is independent of the incorporated measure of noncompactness, thereby making our result better in application than that present in the literature. Moreover, added numerical examples validate the theoretical conclusions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The two-parameter Mittag–Leffler function E α , β is of fundamental importance in fractional calculus, and it appears frequently in the solutions of fractional differential and integral equations. However, the expense of calculating this function often prompts efforts to devise accurate approximations that are more cost-effective. When α > 1 , the monotonicity property is largely lost, resulting in the emergence of roots and oscillations. As a result, current rational approximants constructed mainly for α ∈ (0 , 1) often fail to capture this oscillatory behavior. In this paper, we develop computationally efficient rational approximants for E α , β (− t) , t ≥ 0 , with α ∈ (1 , 2) . This process involves decomposing the Mittag–Leffler function with real roots into a weighted root-free Mittag–Leffler function and a polynomial. This provides approximants valid over extended intervals. These approximants are then extended to the matrix Mittag–Leffler function, and different implementation strategies are discussed, including using partial fraction decomposition. Numerical experiments are conducted to illustrate the performance of the proposed approximants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ordinary differential equations have recently been extended to fractional equations that are transformed using fractional differential equations. These fractional equations are believed to have high accuracy and low computational cost compared to ordinary differential equations. For the first time, this paper focuses on extending the nonlinear heat equations to a fractional order in a Caputo order. A new perturbation iteration algorithm (PIA) of the fractional order is applied to solve the nonlinear heat equations. Solving numerical problems that involve fractional differential equations can be challenging due to their inherent complexity and high computational cost. To overcome these challenges, there is a need to develop numerical schemes such as the PIA method. This method can provide approximate solutions to problems that involve classical fractional derivatives. The results obtained from this algorithm are compared with those obtained from the perturbation iteration method (PIM), the variational iteration method (VIM), and the Bezier curve method (BCM). All solutions are tested with numerical simulations. The study found that the new PIA algorithm performs better than the PIM, VIM, and BCM, achieving high accuracy and low computational cost. One significant advantage of this algorithm is that the solutions obtained have established that the fractional values of alpha, specifically α , significantly influencing the accuracy of the outcome and the associated computational cost.

The solution of fractional differential equations is a significant focus of current research, given their prevalence in various fields of application. This paper introduces an innovative exploration of vesicle dynamics using Jumarie's modified Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative within a five-dimensional fractional rigid sphere model. The study reveals an exact solution through the Mittag-Leffler function, providing a deep understanding of intricate vesicle dynamics, including alternative motions, such as tank-treading with over-damped and under-damped vesicle oscillations, respectively, TT-OD and TT-UD. A comparative analysis with Caputo's derivative emphasizes the effectiveness of these fractional derivatives, contributing not only to theoretical insights but also practical implications in applied mathematics and biophysical systems. The findings advance our understanding of complex vesicle behaviors, particularly in mimicking real cell-like behaviors, and pave the way for further research and applications in the field.

In this paper, our focus is on exploring the relative controllability of systems governed by linear fractional differential equations incorporating state delay. We introduce a novel counterpart to the Cayley-Hamilton theorem. Leveraging a delayed perturbation of the Mittag-Leffler function, along with a determining function and an analog of the Cayley-Hamilton theorem, we establish an algebraic Kalman-type rank criterion for assessing the relative controllability of fractional differential equations with state delay. Moreover, we articulate necessary and sufficient conditions for relative controllability criteria concerning linear fractional time-delay systems, expressed in terms of a new α -Gramian matrix and define a control which transfer the system from any initial state to any final state within a given time. The theoretical findings are exemplified through the presentation of illustrative examples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we apply the fractional homotopy perturbation transform method (FHPTM) to deliver an effective semi-analytical technique for determining fractional-order Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equations. The project technique combines the Laplace transform with the Caputo–Fabrizio fractional derivative of order α where α ∈ (0 , 1 ] . Fractional-order Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation is indeed important in the field of nonlinear physics and mathematics. It is a fractional partial differential equation that describes the behaviour of waves in certain dissipative media, such as flames and chemicals. The FHPTM is described to be fast and accurate. Illustrative examples are included to demonstrate the efficiency and reliability of the presented techniques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper deals with a class of backward stochastic differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motion (with Hurst parameter H greater than 1/2) with time-delayed generators. In this type of equation, a generator at time t can depend on the values of a solution in the past, weighted with a time-delay function, for instance, of the moving average type. We establish an existence and uniqueness result of solutions for a sufficiently small time horizon or for a sufficiently small Lipschitz constant of a generator. The stochastic integral used throughout the paper is the divergence operator-type integral. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we provide a way to handle some symmetric fractional boundary-value problems. Indeed, first, we consider some system of fractional equations. We introduce the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the systems of equations and we show that they are entire functions of the spectral parameter. In particular, we show that the solutions are at most of order 1/2. Moreover we share the integration by parts rule for vector-valued functions that enables us to obtain some symmetric equations. These symmetries allow us to handle 2 - sequential and 4 - sequential fractional boundary-value problems. We provide some expansion formulas for the bilinear forms of the solutions of 2 - sequential and 4 - sequential fractional equations which admit us to impose some unusual boundary conditions for the solutions of fractional differential equations. We show that the systems of eigenfunctions of 2 - sequential and 4 - sequential fractional boundary value problems are complete in both energy and mean. Furthermore, we study on the zeros of solutions of 2 - sequential fractional differential equations. At the end of the paper we show that 6 - sequential fractional differential equation can also be handled as a system of equations and hence almost all the results obtained in the paper can be carried for such boundary-value problems.
