Abstract

This paper deals with existence and uniqueness of solutions to a class of impulsive boundary value problem for nonlinear implicit fractional differential equations involving the Caputo-exponential fractional derivative. The existence results are based on Schaefer’s fixed point theorem and the uniqueness result is established via Banach’s contraction principle. Two examples are given to illustrate the main results.

Summary

Introduction

The fractional calculus is a generalization of ordinary differentiation and integration to arbitrary non-integer orders. Boundary value problems for fractional differential equations have received considerable attention because they occur in the mathematical modeling of a variety of physical processes; see for example [6, 7, 11, 12, 34]. In [27, 31] the authors introduce the exponential fractional calculus and give some existence and uniqueness results for solutions of initial and boundary value problems for fractional differential equations involving Caputo-exponential fractional derivatives (as defined ). The main goal of this paper is to study existence and uniqueness results for solutions to a more general class of impulsive boundary value problem (BVP for short) given by the following nonlinear implicit fractional-order differential equation:. We give two examples to illustrate the applicability of our main results
