Fractional calculus of variations for a combined Caputo derivative

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

We generalize the fractional Caputo derivative to the fractional derivative CDγα,β{{^CD}^{α,β}_γ}, which is a convex combination of the left Caputo fractional derivative of order αα and the right Caputo fractional derivative of order ββ. The fractional variational problems under our consideration are formulated in terms of CDγα,β{{^CD}^{α,β}_γ}. The Euler-Lagrange equations for the basic and isoperimetric problems, as well as transversality conditions, are proved.
