Unique solution of a coupled fractional differential system involving integral boundary conditions from economic model (Q2318894): Difference between revisions

Summary: We study the existence and uniqueness of the positive solution for the fractional differential system involving the Riemann-Stieltjes integral boundary conditions \(- \mathcal{D}_t^\alpha x(t) = f(t, y(t))\), \(- \mathcal{D}_t^\beta y(t) = g(t, x(t))\), \(t \in(0,1)\), \(x(0) = y(0) = 0\), \(x(1) = \int_0^1 x(s) d A(s)\), and \(y(1) = \int_0^1 y(s) d B(s)\), where \(1 < \alpha\), \(\beta \leq 2\), and \(\mathcal{D}_t^\alpha\) and \(\mathcal{D}_t^\beta\) are the standard Riemann-Liouville derivatives, \(A\) and \(B\) are functions of bounded variation, and \(\int_0^1 \mathcal{D}_t^\beta x(s) d A(s)\) and \(\int_0^1 \mathcal{D}_t^\beta y(s) d B(s)\) denote the Riemann-Stieltjes integral. Our results are based on a generalized fixed point theorem for weakly contractive mappings in partially ordered sets.
