A New Grünwald-Letnikov Derivative Derived from a Second-Order Scheme

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2015, vol. 2015, 1-9

Abstract:

A novel derivation of a second-order accurate Grünwald-Letnikov-type approximation to the fractional derivative of a function is presented. This scheme is shown to be second-order accurate under certain modifications to account for poor accuracy in approximating the asymptotic behavior near the lower limit of differentiation. Some example functions are chosen and numerical results are presented to illustrate the efficacy of this new method over some other popular choices for discretizing fractional derivatives.
