Existence and optimal control of Hilfer fractional evolution equations

From MaRDI portal





Many processes in physics and engineering can be described accurately by using systems of differential equations containing different types of fractional derivatives, the most popular of them being the derivatives in the Riemann-Liouville and Caputo sense. Hilfer introduced a new fractional derivative, he named it as the left-sided (right-sided) generalized Riemann-Liouville derivative but many authors call it the Hilfer fractional derivative. Such derivative interpolates between the Riemann-Liouville and Caputo derivatives.\N\NThe purpose of the present article is to investigate an optimal control problem associated to a Cauchy problem to Hilfer fractional evolution equations. In the section Preliminaries some notations and definitions as fraction integrals, Hilfer fraction derivative and Wright function are introduced. In the second section, under some specific assumptions, one proves that the considered initial value problem for the Hilfer fractional evolution equation admits a unique mild solution and few upper bounds to solution are shown. Further, to the Hilfer model a control term Bu(t) is added and a classical optimal control problem by minimizing a quadratic functional is formulated. In the fourth section of the article first- order necessary optimality conditions and the existence of an optimality pair (y,u) are investigated.
