A generalized fractional KN equation hierarchy and its fractional Hamiltonian structure

Abstract: A generalized Hamiltonian structure of the fractional soliton equation hierarchy is presented by using differential forms and exterior derivatives of fractional orders. We construct the generalized fractional trace identity through the Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative. An example of the fractional KN soliton equation hierarchy and Hamiltonian structure is presented, which is a new integrable hierarchy and possesses Hamiltonian structure. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
