Abstract

In 2001/2002, Podlubny suggested a solution to the more than 300-years old problem of geometric interpretation of fractional integration (i.e., integration of an arbitrary real order). His geometric interpretation for left-sided and right-sided Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals, and for Riesz potential is given in terms of changing time scale with constant order of integration, and also in a case of varying order of integration with constant time parameter. In this article we present animations of such interpretation.
