On the qualitative evaluation of the variable-order coupled boundary value problems with a fractional delay

Abstract

Abstract The logical progression from the constant order differential equations is the field of variable-order differential equations. Such equations can frequently give a more succinct description of problems in the real world. In light of this, we therefore take into account a class of coupled boundary value problems under variable-order differentiation. By utilizing the fixed-point techniques of Banach and Schauder, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the proposed problem. Also, sufficient results are documented for the necessary needs. Furthermore, some stability results based on the ideas of Ulam, Hyers, and Rassias are elaborated upon. Ultimately, appropriate examples and in-depth analysis are presented to support our results.
