Population dynamic caused by war involvement via fractional derivative on time scales (Q2289572)

Summary: This work suggests a model for a population dynamic caused by an enemy attack to a domain of residential areas. With the help of a local non-integer order rate of change and a new structure induced on the real line, we derive a spatial discrete diffusion equation of fractional order. Then making use of the d'Alembert's change of variable we obtain a time scale which is made of union of disjoint compact intervals. These considerations lead us to a non-homogeneous second order nonlinear differential equation. The existence of a positive solution is discussed and through a numerical example the theory is illustrated.
