Abstract

We introduce new fractional operators of variable order in isolated time scales with Mittag–Leffler kernels. This allows a general formulation of a class of fractional variational problems involving variable-order difference operators. Main results give fractional integration by parts formulas and necessary optimality conditions of Euler–Lagrange type.
