Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Since the 60s of last century Fractional Calculus exhibited a remarkable progress and presently it is recognized to be an important topic in the scientific arena. This survey analyzes and measures the evolution that occurred during the last five decades in the light of books, journals and conferences dedicated to the theory and applications of this mathematical tool, dealing with operations of integration and differentiation of arbitrary (fractional) order and their generalizations.
