Basic concepts of Riemann-Liouville fractional differential equations with non-instantaneous impulses (Q2337995)

Summary: In this paper a nonlinear system of Riemann-Liouville (RL) fractional differential equations with non-instantaneous impulses is studied. The presence of non-instantaneous impulses require appropriate definitions of impulsive conditions and initial conditions. In the paper several types of initial value problems are considered and their mild solutions are given via integral representations. In the linear case the equivalence of the solution and mild solutions is established. Conditions for existence and uniqueness of initial value problems are presented. Several examples are provided to illustrate the influence of impulsive functions and the interpretation of impulses in the RL fractional case.
