Existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for a fractional switched system (Q1725079): Difference between revisions

Summary: We discuss the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for the following fractional switched system: (\(D c_{0 +}^\alpha u(t)+ f_{\sigma(t)}(t, u(t))+ g_{\sigma(t)}(t, u(t))= 0\), \( t \in J =[0,1]\)); (\(u(0)= u''(0)= 0\), \(u(1)= \int_0^1 u(s) ds\)), where \(D c_{0 +}^\alpha\) is the Caputo fractional derivative with \(2 < \alpha \leq 3\), \(\sigma(t): J \rightarrow\{1,2,\ldots, N \}\) is a piecewise constant function depending on \(t\), and \(\mathbb{R}^+ = [0, + \infty)\), \(f_i, g_i \in C [J \times \mathbb{R}^+, \mathbb{R}^+]\), \(i = 1,2, \ldots, N\). Our results are based on a fixed point theorem of a sum operator and contraction mapping principle. Furthermore, two examples are also given to illustrate the results.
