The numerical solution of a variable‐order fractional financial system is calculated by using the Adams‐Bashforth‐Moulton method. The derivative is defined in the Caputo variable‐order fractional sense. Numerical examples show that the Adams‐Bashforth‐Moulton method can be applied to solve such variable‐order fractional differential equations simply and effectively. The convergent order of the method is also estimated numerically. Moreover, the stable equilibrium point, quasiperiodic trajectory, and chaotic attractor are found in the variable‐order fractional financial system with proper order functions.

In the current paper, the numerical solutions for a class of fractional advection–diffusion equations with a kind of new generalized time-fractional derivative proposed last year are discussed in a bounded domain. The fractional derivative is defined in the Caputo type. The numerical solutions are obtained by using the finite difference method. The stability of numerical scheme is also investigated. Numerical examples are solved with different fractional orders and step sizes, which illustrate that the numerical scheme is stable, simple and effective for solving the generalized advection–diffusion equations. The order of convergence of the numerical scheme is evaluated numerically, and the first-order convergence rate has been observed.
In this paper, we studied the numerical solution of a time-fractional Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation with new generalized fractional derivative proposed recently. The fractional derivative employed in this paper was defined in Caputo sense and contained a scale function and a weight function. A finite difference/collocation scheme based on Jacobi–Gauss–Lobatto (JGL) nodes was applied to solve this equation and the corresponding stability was analyzed theoretically, while the convergence was verified numerically. Furthermore, we investigated the behavior of solution of the generalized KdV equation depending on its parameter , scale function in fractional derivative. We found that the full discrete scheme was effective to obtain a numerical solution of the new KdV equation with different conditions. The wave number in front of the third order space derivative term played a significant role in splitting a soliton wave into multiple small pieces.
