Fractional Calculus is a branch of Mathematics which deals with the derivatives and integrals of arbitrary (non-integer) order. Though the subject is as old as conventional Calculus, the applications are rather recent. The researchers Grunwald, Letnikov, L’Hospital, Leibnitz, Hardy, Caputo, Mainardi and others did pioneering work in this field.

The key feature of the models involving fractional derivative is the flexibility in the choice of fractional order. Such models are proved appropriate in modelling the processes showing an intermediate behavior. The fractional order operators are non-local in contrast with the classical integer-order operator. This non-locality plays a vital role in modelling the memory and hereditary properties in the natural systems.

Mathematicians, Scientists and Engineers across the world are actively involved in analyzing and developing the relevant applications of fractional differential equations. Through this conference, we share the recent progress and advances in the theory of Fractional Calculus and related fields, and aim to bring fruitful direction and collaborations.
