Abstract
There is no unified method to solve the fractional differential equation. The type of derivative here used in this paper is of Jumarie formulation, for the several differential equations studied. Here we develop an algorithm to solve the linear fractional differential equation composed via Jumarie fractional derivative in terms of Mittag-Leffler function; and show its conjugation with ordinary calculus. In these fractional differential equations the one parameter Mittag-Leffler function plays the role similar as exponential function used in ordinary differential equations.

1. Introduction
The analytical solutions of the fractional differential equation are emerging branch of applied science also in basic science. Different methods are developing to solve the fractional differential equations. Since the definition of fractional derivative is modifying to relate it with the classical derivative. Mathematicians are trying to develop the formulas of fractional calculus but geometry of fractional derivative has no concrete shape [1]. Depending on different type of derivatives different methods of solution are developing [2-7][2]. Riemann-Liouville definition the fractional derivative of a constant is non-zero which creates a difficulty to relate between the classical calculus. To overcome this difficulty Jumarie [2, 3, 4, 5] modified the definition of fractional derivative of Riemann-Liouvell type and with this new formulation, we obtain the derivative of a constant as zero. Thus using this definition linking between the fractional and classical calculus becomes easier. There is no unique method to solve the linear fractional differential equations. Using the Jumarie modified definition of fractional derivative we obtain the derivative of Mittag-Leffler function as Mittal-Leffler function, as in case of classical whole-order derivative the derivative of is itself exponential function. Thus via use of Jumarie modified Riemann-Liouvelli derivative, there exists conjugation with classical calculus, which eases in many cases to solve fractional differential equation composed with Jumarie fractional derivative. Here we want to develop an algorithm to solving the linear fractional differential equation using the Mittag-Leffler function. We have obtained applied this method to homogeneous fractional differential equations and got corresponding fundamental solution.
Organization of the paper is as follows. In section 2.0 some definition of fractional derivative is reproduced with essential examples. In section 3.0 and 4.0 some properties of Mittag-Leffler function is described. Finally in section 5.0 the methods for solving the linear fractional differential equation composed by Jumarie fractional derivative is developed using the Mittag-Leffler function.
2. Some Definitions of Fractional
There are many definition of fractional derivative. Grunwald-Letnikov fractional derivative [6], Liouville fractional derivative [8], Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative [10], Caputo fractional derivative [8, 9, 10, 11], Kolwanker-Gangal local fractional derivative [12, 13, 14, 15, 16], Jumarie modified fractional derivative [2]. Here we use the Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative and its modified form by Jumarie [2].
2.1. Riemann-Liouville Definition of Fractional DerivativeLet the function is one time integrable then the integro-differential expression
![]() |
is known as the Riemann-Liouville (R-L)definition of fractional derivative [6] withas integer with condition
In Riemann-Liouville definition the function, is integrated
fold and then differentiate
times. We can re-write the above as follows
The left R-L fractional derivative is defined by
![]() |
And the right R-L derivative is
![]() |
Where in aboveis integer such that
that is just greater than fractional number
.
Using the left R-L derivative we get the fractional derivative of the function as non-zero, as demonstrated below.
![]() |
Similarly the right R-L derivative of is
![]() |
This shows that the fractional derivative of a constant (K) is non-zero but in classical calculus derivative of a constant is zero which is contradiction between the classical derivative and the fractional derivative of a constant. To overcome this difference Jumarie [2] modified the left R-L fractional derivative.
We get the R-L left derivative of a power function as
2.2 Jumarie Modified Definition of the Fractional Derivative Is![]() |
Using this definition we get
The above formula in line-1, becomes fractional order integration if we replace by

![]() |
Taking one whole derivative of the above we get
![]() |
We have therefore calculated fractional derivative by R-L left formula forsuch that
thus our nearest integer is one that is
and we write that below
![]() |
Thus for, the fractional RL derivative of
is
![]() |
For a constant function, putting in above expression
, we get
![]() |
Let us now see what Jumarrie derivative is from above R-L derivative obtained for. The composition of the Jumarie derivative, with start point of integration as
and
is
![]() |
The above expression show that this Jumarrie derivative is composed of two RL derivatives those are minus RL derivative of a constant
. Going by similar steps as done for
, we get first the fractional integral in terms of incomplete Gamma function as
![]() |
The fractional derivative of is by taking one whole derivative of above expression we get the following
![]() |
The fractional derivative of is

![]() |
For , we have
![]() |
We will be using Jumarie derivative for power function with start point of differentiation as
, in subsequent sections. When start point of differentiation is non-zero we will be shifting the origin to that non-zero point and use the above formula.
3. Mittag-Leffler Function
In 1903 Mittag-Leffler [17, 18, 19, 20] was introduce a function defined by
is named as the one parameter Mittag-Leffler function. For

![]() |
The integral representation of the Mittag-Leffler function is Here the path of the integral C is a loop which starts and ends at
and encloses the circles of disk
The two parameter Mittag-Leffler function [21] was defined by
![]() |
and the corresponding integral representation of the two parameter Mittag-Leffler function is
where the contour C is already defined.
We rewrite the Mittag-Leffler [17, 18, 19] function in the following form by an infinite series
![]() |

Using Jumarie derivative of order, with
with start point as
for
, that is
, for
; and also using Jumarie derivative of constant as zero, we get the following very useful identity. In all the subsequent sections we will say

This shows that is a solution is a solution of the fractional differential equation
![]() | (2) |
Where A is arbitrary constant.
Therefore

Using this property of the Mittag-Leffler one can easily prove the following theorem.
Again integrating the Mittag-Leffler function in the interval [0, x] we get

Solution of the above equation is same as the solution of the equation (2) which is
![]() |
On integrating both side we get that is applying on both sides of above, we get

Therefore is a solution of the differential equation. Thus we can state the following theorem
Theorem 2: The fractional differential equation

Proof of the theorem is follows from the previous arguments.
Similarly one can generalized the solution of the differential equation in the following form

6. Conclusions
There are several methods to solve fractional differential equations, and the solution depends on the type of fractional derivative used. Here we develop an analytical method to find the solutions of linear fractional differential equation, composed by Jumarie fractional derivative in terms of one parameter Mittag-Leffler function. Some well known properties of Mittag-Leffler have been used to find solution of the fractional differential equations. The solutions obtained are similar as the solutions obtained usual calculus obtained in terms the exponential function. This conjugation with ordinary calculus when Jumarie type fractional derivative is used to compose the fractional differential equations is useful in several physical problems.
