Beginings of fractional differentiation: prehistory
p
The idea to generalize notion d dxf (x)
p to non-integer values of p
appeared at the birth of differential calculus itself in Leibniz
correspondence with Bernoulli who asked about meaning of the
theorem on differentiation of product of functions for non-integer
value of differentiation.
Leibniz in his letters to L’Hopital (1695) and to Wallis (1697) made
remarks of possibility to consider differentiation of order 1/2.
Euler (1738) was the one who took first step by observation that
p a
there is a sense to consider ddxxp for non-integer p.
Laplace (1812)
R proposed the differentiation of functions representable
−x
in the form T (t)t dt.
d 1/2 x a
Lacroix (1820) repeated idea of Euler and gave the formula for dx 1/2
.

Beginings of fractional differentiation
Fourier (1822) give the idea for the formula to define non-integer
diferentiation:

Proper history starts with Abel and Liouville ...
Breaf historical outline is given in the comprehensive book on
fractional integrals and derivatives:
