This paper presented a stable numerical method for solving convection dominated singularly perturbed nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equations. The equation involved a small perturbation parameter ε ( 0 , 1 ], which leads to a boundary layer in the solution, causing sharp gradients that classical numerical methods struggle to resolve without excessive computational effort. To handle this challenge, an exponentially fitted difference method was proposed for the differential part, which incorporated ε into the discrete operator to accurately capture the boundary layer on coarse meshes. The Volterra integral term was approximated using the composite Trapezoidal rule. The stability and convergence analysis confirmed that the proposed method was uniformly convergent with respect to ε, preserving accuracy even for small values of ε. Numerical experiments were implemented on four test problems to validate the theoretical results, demonstrating the accuracy, uniform convergence, and the method's ability to handle a boundary layer. We extended the method to handle a nonlinear problem by incorporating Newton's linearization technique. The computed result showed that the proposed method was accurate and stable under strong boundary layer condition.

This paper studies a class of fractional stochastic integro-differential systems with memory effects and control inputs. The model involves a Caputo fractional derivative of order α ( 1 / 2 , 1 ), a Volterra-type memory kernel, and stochastic perturbations driven by a Wiener process. Under standard Lipschitz and boundedness assumptions, we establish the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions in the space of mean-square continuous processes via the Banach contraction principle, together with an explicit contraction condition. We further prove Ulam–Hyers stability, providing quantitative bounds that characterize the sensitivity of solutions to perturbations. In addition, we investigate local approximate controllability through a scaled bounded-control approximation framework. We show that, for sufficiently small terminal times and for targets approaching the initial state at the fractional scaling rate x T x 0 ρ T α 1 / 2 the controllability of the nonlinear stochastic system can be inferred from that of an associated reduced linear system using controls whose L 2 -norms remain uniformly bounded as T 0 + . A finite-dimensional example is provided to demonstrate that the scaled bounded-control approximation hypothesis can be verified explicitly in a concrete setting and to illustrate the applicability of the controllability framework. The results provide a unified analytical framework for studying well-posedness, stability, and controllability in fractional stochastic systems with memory.

In the present paper, we consider the linear and nonlinear relaxation equation involving ψ-Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives. By the generalized Laplace transform approach, the guarantee of the existence of solutions for the linear version is shown by Ulam-Hyer's stability. Then by establishing the method of lower and upper solutions along with Banach contraction mapping, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of iterative solutions for the nonlinear version with the non-monotone term. A new condition on the nonlinear term is formulated to ensure the equivalence between the solution of the nonlinear problem and the corresponding fixed point. Moreover, we discuss the maximal and minimal solutions to the nonlinear problem at hand. Finally, we provide two examples to illustrate the obtained results.

Piecewise polynomial functions serve as powerful tools for function approximation and the numerical solution of differential equations. In this study, we presented a robust numerical method for solving the time-fractional diffusion-wave equation involving the Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative. The proposed scheme combines the uniform hyperbolic polynomial B-spline basis for spatial discretization with a θ-weighted finite difference approach for temporal integration. The uniform hyperbolic polynomial B-spline, an advanced generalization of B-splines, integrates hyperbolic functions to enhance smoothness and flexibility, making it especially well-suited for problems exhibiting hyperbolic behavior. Rigorous stability and convergence analyses were carried out to ensure the reliability of the method. To demonstrate its effectiveness, the scheme was applied to several benchmark problems. Numerical results reveal that the proposed approach is highly accurate and computationally efficient.

This paper presents the development of reverse Minkowski and reverse Hölder's fractional integral inclusions. We propose a generic class of η interval-valued ( I . V ) convex functions, which unifies various existing classes. Additionally, we obtain a discrete Jensen-type inclusion within this convexity setup. By leveraging this advanced convexity structure together with tempered fractional integral operators, we derive new Hermite–Hadamard ( H - H )-type, Fejér- H - H -type, and other fractional inclusions. Moreover, we explore the broader significance of our results, supporting them with graphical visualizations. The applications of our results are demonstrated through average value computations.

This article established a comprehensive analytical framework for fractional Hermite functions using the Atangana-Baleanu Caputo (ABC) derivative. We derived a convergent power series solution (radius | x | < 1 for α ( 0 , 1 )) with explicit recurrence relations for its coefficients. Even and odd fractional Hermite functions were constructed via novel termination conditions, and a generalized Rodrigues-type formula was presented. A central result was the proof of orthogonality with respect to the weight function W α ( x ) = e x 2 E α ( α 1 α | x | 2 / α ) , accompanied by the derivation of exact normalization constants Λ n ( α ). Numerical validation confirmed theoretical predictions, with errors < 0.5 % . The functions H n , α A B C ( x ) preserved key classical properties while exhibiting distinct fractional behavior, such as cusp-like formation at the origin. Quantitative analysis demonstrated convergence to classical Hermite polynomials as α 1 , with root errors < 1 % for α = 0.95. This work extends Hermite theory into the fractional domain, providing essential tools for modeling systems with memory and non-local interactions.
