Solving fractional optimal control problems using Genocchi polynomials

In this paper, we solve a class of fractional optimal control problems in the sense of Caputo derivative using Genocchi polynomials. At first we present some properties of these polynomials and we make the Genocchi operational matrix for Caputo fractional derivatives. Then using them, we solve the problem by converting it to a system of algebraic equations. Some examples are presented to show the efficiency and accuracy of the method.
