To the theory of differential inclusions with Caputo fractional derivatives (Q2215246)

The paper studies a Cauchy problem associated to fractional differential inclusions of the form \[ ^CD^{\alpha }x(t)\in F(t,x(t)),\quad a.e.\; t\in [t_0,T], \] \[ x(t)=w_0(t),\quad t\in [0,t_0], \] where \(\alpha \in (0,1)\), \(^CD^{\alpha }\) denotes Caputo's fractional derivative, \(F:[0,T]\times {\mathbb{R}}^n\to \mathcal{P}({\mathbb{R}}^n)\) is a set-valued map with non-empty compact convex values. It is assumed that \(F\) is upper semicontinuous in both variable and satisfies a certain linear growth condition. It is proved that the solution set of this problem is nonempty and compact. Several results concerning the dependence of the solution set of this problem with respect to the initial data, with respect to the right-hand side and with respect to the order of differentiation are obtained.
