      Fractional Differential Equations: Theoretical Aspects and Applications presents the latest mathematical and conceptual developments in the field of Fractional Calculus and explores the scope of applications in research science and computational modeling. The book delves into these methods and applied computational modelling techniques, including analysis of equations involving fractional derivatives, fractional derivatives and the wave equation, analysis of FDE on groups, direct and inverse problems, functional inequalities, and computational methods for FDEs in physics and engineering. Other modeling techniques and applications explored include general fractional derivatives involving the special functions in analysis and fractional derivatives with respect to other functions. Fractional Calculus, the field of mathematics dealing with operators of differentiation and integration of arbitrary real or even complex order, extends many of the modelling capabilities of conventional calculus and integer-order differential equations and finds its application in various scientific areas, such as physics, mechanics, engineering, economics, finance, biology, and chemistry, among others.

      Pepper Virome: Molecular Biology, Diagnostics and Management presents detailed information about the plant viruses that infect pepper worldwide, providing crucial insights for both the scientific community and producers. Understanding the nature of the viruses, their transmission methods, and possible sources of resistance in order to minimize the yield losses as well as to reduce the spread of these viruses to new locations or countries is of global importance. Pepper is an important commodity worldwide, cultivated for both fresh produce and for processing industry as a spice. However, various diseases affect pepper production and cause significant yield losses in pepper yield.The increasing outbreaks of virus species infecting Capsicum spp. have become a major problem for growers. A combination of factors, including expansion and intensification of pepper cultivation, availability of volunteer hosts, abundance of insect vectors, and climate change have all contributed to the issue. This book provides in-depth information on both the viruses infecting peppers and eco-friendly management measures to decrease the rate of spread of viruses.
