A Novel Approach to Solving Fractional Diffusion Equations Using Fractional Beta Derivative

This paper introduces a novel application of fractional beta derivatives in solving fractional diffusion equations with an emphasis on systems exhibiting anomalous diffusion and memory effects. The work explores the fractional beta derivative as an extension of classical fractional derivatives by incorporating a parameter β (beta) that controls the system’s memory behavior. We investigate both the analytical and numerical solutions of these equations, demonstrating the superior flexibility of fractional beta derivatives in modeling complex diffusion processes. Additionally, we provide a comparison between classical fractional derivatives and the new fractional beta approach to highlight the advantages in terms of accuracy and computational efficiency. We begin by reviewing the theoretical background of fractional derivatives and proceed to introduce the beta derivative as a modification that provides additional flexibility in modeling complex systems. Applications in fields such as control theory, signal processing, and bioengineering are highlighted. Furthermore, numerical methods for solving fractional beta differential equations are discussed, along with potential areas for future research.
