Abstract
In this paper, we focus on the study of the implicit involving Stieltjes integral boundary conditions. We first exploit some sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the above problems based on the Banach contraction principle and Schaefer’s fixed point theorem. Then, we present different kinds of stability such as , , , and by employing the classical techniques. In the end, the main results are demonstrated by two examples.

1. Introduction
As is well known, Paul Langevin in 1908 introduced an equation of the form , which is now called the Langevin equation. As far as we know, Langevin equations are widely applied to many fields, such as image processing, astronomy, physics, stochastic problems in chemistry, and mechanical engineering. It is worth pointing out that the Langevin equations describe Brownian motion in a reasonable way that the random oscillation force is assumed to be Gaussian noise. In order to remove noise and decrease the staircase effects, researchers employed fractional differential equations to replace ordinary differential equations. Therefore, it is significant to investigate the fractional Langevin equations. For additional information, we refer to earlier works [1,2,3].
In recent years, fractional differential equations have become increasingly significant in theory and applications. Here, we do not intend to list all of applicable areas involving the fractional operators, we just refer the interested reader to see the introduction in [2]. There are a lot of excellent works that offer the key theoretical instruments for the qualitative and quantitative characterization of fractional differential equations, see earlier works [4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12].
Since approximate solutions are frequently used in disciplines such as numerical analysis, optimization theory, and nonlinear analysis, it is important to determine how closely these solutions resemble the true solutions of the relevant system or systems. Other methods may be carried out for this; however, the procedure may be easy to be understood. Ulam originally brought out the aforementioned stability in 1940 [13], and Hyers ingeniously responded in 1941 [14]. Rassias [15] established the mathematical technique in 1978 by considering variables. After that, researchers expanded the ideas of functional differential and integral, and then were established by some authors, see for example [16,17,18,19,20,21].
The existence, uniqueness, and different types of of the solutions of nonlinear implicit with Caputo fractional derivatives have recently attracted the interest of many scholars; for more information, see [22,23,24,25,26,27]. In the following, we list some very related solutions:
• Muniyappan and Rajan [28] discussed and for the following :
where is a Caputo fractional derivative of order .
• Abbas [29] demonstrated the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the following :
where , and , are the Caputo fractional derivatives.
• Ahmad and Nieto [30] investigate the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the following :
where the function is continuous and .
• Ali et al. [31] investigated the existence and uniqueness of solutions, and four different types of Ulam stability for the implicit given by:
where .
• Dai et al. [32] studied the and of the following nonlinear with integral boundary condition:
where is Caputo derivative and is the Riemann–Liouville fractional integral.
Motivated by the above papers, we consider the following nonlinear implicit Langevin equations with mixed derivatives and Stieltjes integral conditions:
where represents a classical Caputo derivative, of order , with the lower bound zero, , , , for all , is continuous, and the integrals from the boundary condition are Riemann–Stieltjes integrals with function of bounded variation.
We summarize the main highlights of this paper as follows:
- 1.
- It is the first time in literature that we work on this model (1) with pointwise Stieltjes integrals.
- 2.
- Different from [28,29,30,31,32], we obtain the solution of (1) we inquire about the existence and uniqueness of a solution for a class of for implicit with Stieltjes integral conditions.
- 3.
- Different from the previous paper [32] which worked with Riemann integrals, we work with Stieltjes integral for better solutions.
The manuscript is organized as follows. In Section 2, we provide a uniform framework for the proposed model. Section 3 is devoted to employing different conditions and some well-known fixed point theorems to ensure the existence and uniqueness of solution for system (1). In Section 4, we present Ulam’s stabilities. In Section 5, we give two examples to demonstrate our main results.

3. Existence and Uniqueness
In this section, we will build up adequate conditions to ensure the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the (1).
From Lemma 4, we can determine the integral equation of problem (1) as follows:
Throughout the paper, we assume that

Proof.
It is easy to see that holds true, so we omit the proof.
: Because the Green’s function has the following expression:
Using Mean Value Theorem [35] with and , we obtain:
Hence, the proof of is complete. □
Theorem 4.
Under the hypotheses –, the operator δ is compact.
Proof.
Consider the operator defined in (10). We have to show that the operator is compact. For this, the proof will be given in several steps.
- Step 1:
- We assert that the operator is continuous. Let such that in ; then, for each , we have:Now, by , we have:Since we supposed that , then as for each . So, by Lebesgue Dominated Convergence Theorem [36], (11) implies thathence,As a result, is continuous.
- Step 2:
- Step 3:
- Now, we claim that the operator is equicontinuous in . Let with , since is a bounded set in , and let . Then we have:
The right-hand side of the aforementioned inequality has tended to zero since . Because of this, is equicontinuity. As a solution of to , the operator is completely continuous. Therefore, the operator is compact in light of the Arzela–Ascoli theorem. □
In the next theorem, the following notations are used:

Now, by , we have:
Plugging (15) in (14) and taking , we obtain:
So, (16) becomes:
from which we achieve:
which means that is bounded. By Theorems 4 and 3, we know that the operator has one fixed point in , as desired. □
Theorem 6.
Proof.
Let be the solution of (1) and for . Then, we have:
Now, by , we have:
So, (17) becomes:
Now, taking on both sides, we obtain:
This implies that
Hence, the operator is a contraction mapping. Therefore, according to Theorem 2, the operator possesses a unique fixed point, which is a unique solution to (1). □
4. Ulam Stability Analysis
In this section, we investigate stability results in the sense of Ulam for the proposed problem (1).
Lemma 6.

Suppose that is any solution of the inequality (4), and let be the unique solution of the system:
Then, for , the solution of (25) is:
Consider:
Using , in a same way as in Theorem 7, we obtain:
Now, by Lemma 7 and (27), (26) becomes:
which implies
where
such that
Thus, the (1) is .
Now, if we plug in (28), then, by Definition 6, the problem is . This finishes the proof. □

6. Conclusions
In this paper, we present some sufficient conditions to obtain the existence, uniqueness, and Ulam’s stabilities of solutions to system (1). The desired results are investigated by employing the Banach contraction mapping principle, Schaefer’s fixed point theorem, and Arzela–Ascoli theorem. Meanwhile, we derive various types of Ulam’s stabilities for solutions to system (1). Finally, two examples are provided to support the main results.
