Aims & Scope

Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis is an international journal dedicated to the theory and applications of mathematical analysis where differentiations and integrations can be of arbitrary non-integer order. Publishes high quality articles on original results and surveys related to fractional calculus and applied analysis Emphasizes an interdisciplinary and applied approach, bridging pure and applied mathematics, theoretical physics, and other natural and social sciences. Provides also a forum for the exchange of ideas and discussion of open problems, announcements and reviews.
