Fractional variational calculus in terms of a combined Caputo derivative

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