Abstract

We discuss the existence and uniqueness of solution to nonlinear fractional order ordinary differential equations ( D α - ρ t D β ) x ( t ) = f ( t , x ( t ) , D γ x ( t ) ) , t ( 0 , 1 ) with boundary conditions x ( 0 ) = x 0 , x ( 1 ) = x 1 or satisfying the initial conditions x ( 0 ) = 0 , x ( 0 ) = 1 , where D α denotes Caputo fractional derivative, ρ is constant, 1 < α < 2, and 0 < β + γ α . Schauder's fixed-point theorem was used to establish the existence of the solution. Banach contraction principle was used to show the uniqueness of the solution under certain conditions on f .
