30. Fractional derivation was developed as a generalization of integer order derivatives and is defined as the inverse operation to the fractional integral. Fractional integration of the order of α is defined by the operator (see, e.g.,) Ia xα f (x) = 1 Γ (α) ∫ax f (y) (x-y) α-1 dy, where α>0, x>a, and Γ (z) is the Gamma function. Therefore, the fractional derivative is the inverse operator to Ia xα as Da xα f (x) = Ia x -α and Ia xα = Da x -α. Its explicit form is Da x -α = 1 Γ (-α) ∫ax f (y) (x-y) -1-α dy. For arbitrary α>0 this integral diverges, and as a result of a regularization procedure, there are two alternative definitions of Da x -α. For an integer n defined as n-1<α

35. Analogously to the FSE 1, following Ref., one introduces the Planck length LP = G/ c3, time TP = G/ c5, mass MP = c/G, and energy EP = MP c2, where, G, and c are the Planck constant, the gravitational constant, and the speed of light, respectively. Therefore, quantum mechanics of a particle with mass m is described by the dimensionless units x/ LP →x, y/ LP →y, and t/ TP →t, while the dimensionless Planck constant is defined as the inverse dimensionless mass h∼ = MP /m. Note that the dimensionless potential is now V (x) →V (x) / MP c2.
