General fractional calculus, evolution equations, and renewal processes (Q429735)

The author develops and studies a kind of fractional calculus connected certain Caputo type generalized fractional derivative, which involved a convolution integral. The main results presented by the author are based in the theory of complete Berstain functions. The main goal of this interesting paper have been to study a Cauchy type problem for a linear parabolic equation involving the the mentioned generalized fractional derivative. Such stdy leads to an analytics description of general renewal processes constructed by \textit{M. M. Meerschaert, E. Nane} and \textit{P. Vellaisamy} [Electron. J. Probab. 16, 1600--1620 (2011; Zbl 1245.60084)] in terms of the random time change in the classical Poisson process determined by an inverse subordinator.
