In this paper, we firstly give a counterexample to indicate that the chain rule d d x x u D u D α α σ ξ ξ = is lack of accuracy. After that, we put forward the fractional Riccati expansion method. No need to use the chain rule, we apply this method to fractional KdV-type and fractional Telegraph equations and obtain the tangent and cotangent functions solutions of these fractional equations for the first time.


Introduction
As we know that the global quasi-operator fractional-order derivative owns the properties of depending on history, and posses more advantages than the local operator integral-order in describing the memory and hereditary characteristic of different substances, the fractional-order derivative is usually used also by simulating the dynamic behavior of soft material, which is a kind of material between solid and fluid.Recently, the study on properties of fractional derivatives and fractional-order equations increasingly causes attention to many and the following two basic formulae: ( ) ( ) .
x g x g D f g x f g x D g x D f g x g x Liu [7] gave the two counterexamples and stated the opinion that Jumarie's two above formulae (2) and (3) are incorrect.Author's [8] developed the fractional complex transform 1 and the following chain rule for fractional derivative where 1 2 , σ σ are constants.
The above formulae (4) and ( 5) have the advantage of converting a fractional differential equation with Jumarie's modified of Riemann-Liouville derivative into its ordinary differential equations.Recently, many authors [9] [10] studied the exact traveling wave solutions of space-time fractional equations by using of formulae ( 4) and ( 5)and G'/G-expansion method, improved F-expansion, first integral method etc.
In here, we must point out that the constants 1 2 , σ σ are lack of accuracy, if the fractional transformation

( )
U ξ contains two terms and above, formula (5) is incorrect.We give the counterexample to show that σ of formula (5) does not exist and therefore the corresponding results reported in many literatures are not correct.
Inspired by this, we present the new fractional Riccati expansion method.By this method, we firstly transform fractional partial differential equations into fractional ordinary equations with the same order by using traveling wave transformation.
Then we can give the exact solutions of fractional ordinary equations using the solutions of fractional Riccati equation.In this process, the chain rule formulae (4) and (5) do not need to be used.
The content is as follows: in Section 2, one counterexample is given to show that the formula ( 5) is not true.The properties and definition of conformable fractional derivative are listed, steps of the fractional Riccati expansion method are presented.In Section 3, the proposed method is applied to solve space-time fractional differential KdV-type and Telegraph equations, exact solitary wave solutions can be obtained.Furthermore, the method can be used to obtain exact solutions of many other fractional equations without formulae (4) and (5).The brief conclusions are arranged in Section 4.

Counterexample
In some literatures, authors [9] [10] reduced the fractional differential equations to the ordinary differential equations by using formulae (4) and (5), with the help of solving ordinary differential equations, the traveling wave solutions of fractional differential equations can be obtained.Inhere we must point out formula (5) is incorrect.Certainly, results obtained by using ( 5) and ( 4) are lack of accuracy.In the following content, we give one counterexample to show that formula (5) But from and ( ) ( ) we know that the right side of first formula to expression (5) equals to ( ) Comparing ( 6) with ( 9), we find that the " σ " of formula (5) doesn't exist.That is to say, we can not give a constant " σ " such that ( ) ( ) holds.It is obviously that formula ( 5) is right for the compound functions containing one term, such as

Definition and Properties of Fractional Derivative
The fractional derivative is described in the sense of the following "conformable fractional derivative" defined by Khalil [11] as Definition 2.1.For a given function We known that Riemann-Liouville derivative and Caputo derivative have the following setbacks: (1) they do not satisfy ( ) (2) they do not satisfy formulae ( 2) and ( 3).
However, The conformable fractional derivative makes up these setbacks and it satisfies the known formulae ( 2), ( 3) and Rolle's Theorem.For ( ] the conformable fractional derivative of some functions are listed as the following: (1) ( ) 2 ; The above properties play a very important role in the fractional Riccati expansion method.Khalil [11] gave proofs of (1) and (2).After simple calculating, We know that (3) are true by ( 1), ( 2) and the definitions of hyperbolic functions.
Proposition 2.2.For ( ] f g be conformable fractional derivative, ( ) f g is differential at point g, g is continuous at point x, then the chain rule holds, where " d dg " denote the derivative of integer-order with respect to g.

Proof By
( )( ) f g x is differential at point x and the definition (2.1) of conformable fractional derivative, then In the above process, the fourth equality holds because of continuity of X. H. Liu function ( ) g x .Then the chain rule (12) holds.

Step 1: By using the traveling wave transformation where c is constants to be determined.Fractional differential Equation ( 13) is reduced to the following nonlinear fractional ordinary differential equation of u with the same order: Step 2: Suppose that ( ) u ξ solution of Equation ( 15) can be expressed by the following form:  are undetermined constants, n is a positive integer to be determined by balancing the nonlinear term and the linear term of the highest order in Equation ( 15), ( ) where m is parameter.By using the definition (2.1), proposition (2.2) of comfortable fractional derivative and the derivatives (3) of some functions, we can obtain the following solutions of Equation ( 17).
Theorem 2.3.For given and ( ) Proof: By using the proposition (2.2) of comfortable fractional derivative and the derivative (3) of tanh function,the left side of expression (17) ( ) After simple calculation, we know that the right side of expression (17) ( ) By ( 20) and ( 21), then (18) is the solutions of Equation (17).Similarly, we can obtain that the proof of (19).
Step 3: Determining integer n by the principle of homogeneous balance, and Substituting ( 16) and ( 17) into Equation ( 15) and collecting the terms with same order of ( ) F ξ , then setting each coefficient of ( ) F ξ to zero.So we get a system of algebraic equations of 0 1 , , , n a a a and c.By solving this algebraic equations, yields 0 1 , , , n a a a  and c can be expressed by parameters , , a b m and δ .With the help of the solutions of Equation ( 17) and expression (18), the solutions of Equation ( 16) can be arrived.So we have the traveling wave solutions of Equation ( 13).
