Existence of Iterative Cauchy Fractional Differential Equation

Abstract

Fractional calculus and its applications (that is the theory of derivatives and integrals of any arbitrary real or complex order) are important in several widely diverse areas of mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences. It generalized the ideas of integer order differentiation and n-fold integration. Fractional derivatives introduce an excellent instrument for the description of general properties of various materials and processes.This is themain advantage of fractional derivatives in comparison with classical integer-order models, in which such effects are in fact neglected.The advantages of fractional derivatives become apparent in modeling mechanical and electrical properties of real materials, as well as in the description of properties of gases, liquids, rocks, and in many other fields. Our aim in this paper is to consider the existence and uniqueness of nonlinear Cauchy problems of fractional order in sense of Riemann-Liouville operators. Also, two theorems in the analytic continuation of solutions are studied. In the fractional Cauchy problems, we replace the first-order time derivative by a fractional derivative. Fractional Cauchy problems are useful in physics. Recently, the author studied the the fractional Cauchy problems in complex domain [1]. One of the most frequently used tools in the theory of fractional calculus is furnished by the Riemann-Liouville operators. The Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative could hardly pose the physical interpretation of the initial conditions required for the initial value problems involving fractional differential equations. Moreover, this operator possesses advantages of fast convergence, higher stability, and higher accuracy to derive different types of numerical algorithms (see [2]).
