Abstract
This paper proposes a method for solving fuzzy linear and nonlinear partial q-differential equations by the fuzzy q-differential transform. Further, we implemented the fuzzy fractional q-differential transform for solving some types of fuzzy fractional q-differential equations. The technique investigated is based on gH-differentiability, fuzzy q-derivative, and fuzzy q-fractional derivative. Various concrete problems have been tested by implementing the new method, and the results show great performance. The results also reveal that the method is a very effective and quite accurate mathematical tool for solving fuzzy fractional and integer q-differential equations. Finally, we have provided some examples illustrating our method.
Introduction
As we all know, the differential (integral) theory of fuzzy number valued function based on the theory of fuzzy number space is one of the main research contents of fuzzy analysis, especially the fuzzy differential and integral equations, which are widely used in engineering technology and social science, have aroused great interest of scholars in different fields. The research of fuzzy differential equations is mainly based on the following three methods. The first is based on the H-derivative and the generalized derivative of Bede. The second is based on Zadeh’s extension principle. The third is based on the theory of differential inclusion, and the theory of fuzzy differential equations in these three meanings is different from each other.
In this work, on the based of the H-derivative and the generalized derivative of Bede, we present the solutions of fuzzy partial q-differential equations via two-dimensional fuzzy q-DTM. Moreover, we study one-dimensional fuzzy fractional q-DTM to obtain the solutions of some types of fuzzy fractional q-differential and q-integro-differential equations. Finally, we consider the two-dimensional fuzzy fractional q-DTM for solving fuzzy fractional partial q-differential equations systematically studied.
Fuzzy analysis and fuzzy differential equations have been proposed to deal with uncertainty due to incomplete information that appears in several mathematical or computer models of certain deterministic real-world phenomena. This theory has furthermore developed and a large number of applications of this theory have been considered. As a result, fuzzy fractional differential equations and fractional differential equations have emerged as important topics [53–55]. Stefanini and Bede [50] have proposed the generalized Hukuhara differentiability of interval-valued functions and interval differential equations. Also, Bede and Stefanini [17] introduced the generalized differentiability of fuzzy-valued functions. Gomes and Barros [21] discussed the generalized difference and the generalized differentiability. The concept of the fuzzy-type Riemann-Liouville differentiability based on Hukuhara differentiability was introduced in [8, 9] and using the Hausdorff measure of non-compactness, the researchers presented some fuzzy integral equations using appropriate compression-type conditions. Various approaches and techniques, based on Hukuhara differentiability or generalized Hukuhara differentiability [17], have been introduced in some of the works in the literature; see [6, 78].
In recent years, the fuzzy partial differential equations (FPDEs) have attracted great interest because of their practical applications in many fields such as physics, social science, and other areas of science and engineering. The FPDEs have been studied by many authors using different methods. Keshavarza et al. [32] presented the fuzzy solution to the mathematical model of a cancer tumor under Caputo-generalized Hukuhara partial differentiability by using fuzzy integral transforms. Keshavarz and Allahviranloo [31] studied the fuzzy fundamental triangular solution of the fractional diffusion equation under Caputo generalized Hukuhara partial differentiability by using the fuzzy Laplace transform and the fuzzy Fourier transform. Furthermore; see [1–3, 48].
Recently, q-calculus appears as a connection between mathematics and physics. Ernst [59] introduced a new notation for q-calculus a new q-Taylor’s formula. Jing and Fan [60] proposed q-Taylor’s formula with its q-remainder. Koekoek and Swarttow [29] presented askey-Scheme of hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials and its q-analogue. Koelink [30] considered the eight lectures on quantum groups and q-special functions. Koornwinder and Swarttow, [33] studied on q-analogues of the Fourier and Hankel transforms. Noeiaghdam et al. [40] studied the introduction of the numerical methods for solving the fuzzy q-differential equations that many real life problems can be modelized in the form of these equations. Noeiaghdam et al. [41] introduced the fuzzy q-derivative and fuzzy q-fractional derivative in Caputo sense by using generalized Hukuhara difference, and then provide the related theorems and properties in detail. More details, one can refer to [12, 51].
Differential equations (DEs) that use q-difference calculus have become a powerful way to model many problems in engineering, physics, and mathematics [64–66]. Different researchers [67–70] have looked at DEs with fractional q-difference calculus. Fractional q-DEs have several interesting topics about the existence and stability of solutions. Recently, many researchers have looked into the existence, uniqueness, and different types of Ulam stability (US) of solutions to fractional q-DEs; see [71–73, 77] for some of these studies. In addition, many scholars have been studying sequential fractional DEs, for example; see [75–77].
The differential transform method (DTM) was originally discussed by Zhou [57] in 1986, this technique adopts an analytic solution in polynomial form, which is different from the traditional higher-order Taylor formula technique. Lately, many researchers have proposed this method to solve many problems. Allahviranloo et al. [4] used the DTM for solving fuzzy differential equations. Rivaz et al. [46] presented the generalized DTM for solving fuzzy fractional differential equations under Caputo fractional derivative. Keshavarz et al. [32] studied the fuzzy solution to the mathematical model of a cancer tumor under Caputo-generalized Hukuhara partial differentiability by using fuzzy integral transforms. Osman et al. [42] investigated the comparison of fuzzy DTM, with other techniques to obtain the solutions of fuzzy (1 + n)-dimensional Burgers’ equation.
This paper is structured as follows. In Section 2, we recall some basic definitions, remarks, and theorems that will be used are given. In Section 3, we consider the fuzzy linear and nonlinear partial q-differential equations via two-dimensional fuzzy q-differential transform. In Section 4, the applications of one-and two-dimensional fuzzy fractional q-differential transform for solving fuzzy fractional q-differential equations are discussed. Finally, a conclusion is drawn in Section 5.

In this paper, we presented a new generalization of the fuzzy differential transform method that extends its applicability to the fuzzy q-differential equations and fuzzy fractional q-differential equations in this study. In addition, the problem does not need to be transformed into a form suitable for the application of linear theory or perturbation, and also that no symbolic computing is required, which might be challenging in nonlinear instances. The method investigated is based on gH-differentiability, fuzzy q-derivative, and fuzzy q-fractional derivative. Finally, the results are quite reliable, and many concrete problems were tested by applying the new technique and the results have shown remarkable performance.
