In the past forty years, fractional calculus had played a very important role in various fields such as mechanics, electricity, chemistry, biology, economics, control theory, and signal and image processing. Moreover, it has been found that the dynamical behavior of many complex systems can be properly described by fractional order models. Such models are interesting for engineers and physicists but also for mathematicians. The most important among such models are those described by partial differential equations containing fractional derivatives. Their evolutions behave in a much more complex way than in the classical integer-order case and the study of the corresponding theory, numerical methods and applications is a hugely demanding task. In the past few years, the increase of the subject is witnessed by hundreds of research papers, several monographs, many international conferences.

This is the fifth special issue on Advances in Fractional Differential Equations of the journal CAMWA. This special issue shall deal with some new and different topics with high current interest falling within the scope of the CAMWA, and attract more attention from contributors and readers.

Topics of special issue:

Theory, Theory, numerical methods and applications for fractional PDEs in multiple space dimension
