FRACTIONAL CALCULUS PROJECT
Partially supported by research grants DES-9980484, DMS-0139943 and DMS-0139927 from the National Science Foundation and DE-FG03-98ER14885
from the U.S. Department of Energy.
The Fractional Calculus Project is an interdisciplinary collaboration of mathematicians, statisticians, physicists and hydrologists to develop
the theory and practical application of fractals, fractional
derivatives, and heavy tailed stochastic processes.
Fractional-order partial differential equations (PDEs) are used by
physicists and hydrologists to model anomalous diffusion and Hamiltonian chaos. These governing equations describe the asymptotic behavior of continuous time random walks (CTRWs). Stochastic solutions to the
simplest governing equations are Levy motions, generalizing the Brownian motion solution to the classical diffusion equation. More generally,
these equations invoke pseudo-differential operators that are
non-local. Fractional PDEs address shortcomings with previous methods
in geophysics, but a number of important problems remain open.

good idea, you can do a project about fractional partial differential equation.
mathHand.com solves fractional partial differential equation by clicking the dsolve and plot by clicking plot3D and test its solution by clicking the test.

I wrote a book called "Supercalculus" in the early 90's that connected fractional calculus with fractal dimension. Dr. Huang started work on
these sorts of sets about 2000 and I contacted him with interest in his work. I'm really getting old here, but I continue to follow the subject.
What would be interesting is to connect Mandelbrot -Levy distributions ( as in galaxy distributions)
to a fractional calculus. My research indicated a fractional dimension near s=3/4 ( as a Mandelbrot rational dimension) for the Mandelbrot -Levy distribution.
A set of rational orthogonal polynomials connected to rational dimensions in Mandelbrot -Levy
would be a nice find.
I have watched sci-fractal posts for years and always wished there was an administrator-moderator
here. I started yahoo, google+, Microsoft, Facebook, group.io, Linked-In groups as alternatives
where spam and goblins could be kept at a minimum.
In the late 90's early 2000's I was attacked "here" for some of my posts ...goblins .
I don't need that sort of stress in my life.
Sci-math is a lost cause, LOL.
