Nonlocal and Fractional Operators

Luisa Beghin is Full Professor in Probability and Mathematical Statistics at Sapienza University of Rome (Italy). Her research interests include stochastic processes linked to fractional differential equations, Levy processes, fractional and anomalous diffusions.Roberto Garrappa is Associate Professor of Numerical Analysis at the University of Bari (Italy). His current research interests include numerical solution of ordinary and partial differential equations of fractional order and evaluation of special functions. He is the author of several numerical Matlab codes for fractional-order problems available in the MathWorks website. Francesco Mainardi is retired Professor of Mathematical Physics from the University of Bologna, where he taught this course for more than 40 years. His research concerns several topics of applied mathematics, including diffusion and wave problems, asymptotic methods, integral transforms, special functions, fractional calculus and non-Gaussian stochastic processes.

"The book provides a survey of recent advancements in nonlocal and fractional models. It covers a vast range of topics involving nonlocal problems, from numerical methods, modeling, and applications to theoretical analysis. ... if you are a researcher working on nonlocal problems, or if you are a mathematician or applied scientist who is interested in learning the state-of-the-art theoretical and numerical developments in this field, this book will make a nice addition to your library."
