I'm searching literature for solving derivative with order between 0 up to 1.
If anybody have that, please post me!

There are books on the subject. I have one, but i can't remember the title. In these cases google is your friend.

Be wary about learning a subject from Wikipedia, since it is not written by experts (this has been talked about quite a lot recently on this forum; do a search if you're interested in reading what others have to say on the matter)

To the OP: Why not look into some of the textbooks listed in the references on that Wikipedia page.
 

Thread 'Volterra equation of the second kind'

There is the following linear Volterra equation of the second kind $$ y(x)+\int_{0}^{x} K(x-s) y(s)\,{\rm d}s = 1 $$ with kernel $$ K(x-s) = 1 - 4 \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{1}{\lambda_n^2} e^{-\beta \lambda_n^2 (x-s)} $$ where $y(0)=1$, $\beta>0$ and $\lambda_n$ is the $n$-th positive root of the equation $J_0(x)=0$ (here $n$ is a natural number that numbers these positive roots in the order of increasing their values), $J_0(x)$ is the Bessel function of the first kind of zero order. I...

Thread 'Visual Representation of Separation of Varables'

Are there any good visualization tutorials, written or video, that show graphically how separation of variables works? I particularly have the time-independent Schrodinger Equation in mind. There are hundreds of demonstrations out there which essentially distill to copies of one another. However I am trying to visualize in my mind how this process looks graphically - for example plotting t on one axis and x on the other for f(x,t). I have seen other good visual representations of...
