FRACTIONAL CALCULUS AND DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS

Fractional calculus has come to prominence relatively recently, even though it has been formally available since the mid 19th century. Beginning with applications in the modeling of viscoelastic materials in the 1960s, fractional dynamical systems have yielded a modeling approach that provides another parameter that may be tuned to better fit data. Our group has developed system identification methods and DMD modeling techniques for fractional order dynamical systems as well as numerical techniques and new reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces intertwining multiplication operators with the Caputo fractional derivative via adjoint relations.
