On the Existence of a Unique Solution for a Class of Fractional Differential Inclusions in a Hilbert Space

Abstract

We obtained results on the existence and uniqueness of a mild solution for a fractional-order semi-linear differential inclusion in a Hilbert space whose right-hand side contains an unbounded linear monotone operator and a Carathéodory-type multivalued nonlinearity satisfying some monotonicity condition in the phase variables. We used the Yosida approximations of the linear part of the inclusion, the method of a priori estimates of solutions, and the topological degree method for condensing vector fields. As an example, we considered the existence and uniqueness of a solution to the Cauchy problem for a system governed by a perturbed subdifferential inclusion of a fractional diffusion type.
