Abstract
In this paper, we investigate an initial value problem for a nonlinear fractional differential equation on an infinite interval. The differential operator is taken in the Hadamard sense and the nonlinear term involves two lower-order fractional derivatives of the unknown function. In order to establish the global existence criteria, we first verify that there exists a unique positive solution to an integral equation based on a class of new integral inequality. Next, we construct a locally convex space, which is metrizable and complete. On this space, applying Schäuder’s fixed point theorem, we obtain the existence of at least one solution to the initial value problem.
1. Introduction
For the purpose of problem-solving in many different domains, such as engineering and control, fractional differential equations, or FDEs, are indispensable tools. Fractional derivatives of the Hadamard, Caputo, Riemann–Liouville, and other varieties are the subject of numerous studies on fractional differential equations. The boundary value and initial value problems for nonlinear fractional equations have been extensively researched. Most of the findings in this field relate to establishing the uniqueness and existence of positive solutions on finite intervals.
The study of initial value problems is a direction that cannot be overlooked in articles dealing with the existence of solutions to fractional differential equations on infinite intervals (see [,,,,,,,,,,,]).
Take the nonlinear fractional differential equation below as an example
where denotes the Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative. By constructing a special Banach space
Kou et al. [] employed fixed point theorems to obtain the global existence of solutions for Equation (1) supplemented with the initial condition of the form
on In [,], Zhu applied some new fractional integral inequalities to study global existence results for the fractional differential Equation (1) with the initial condition (3). In [], for the initial value problem (1), (3) was proved to have solutions in by constructing a special locally convex space and utilizing Schauder’s fixed point theorem. Also, for this initial value problem, by using a Bielecki type norm and the Banach fixed point theorem, Tuan et al. [] proved a Picard–Lindelöf-type theorem on the existence and uniqueness of global solutions.
Zhang and Hu [] considered the unique existence of an approximate solution to the following initial value problem
where denote derivatives of variable order and .
Zhu et al. [] investigated the existence results for fractional differential equations of the form
where is a Caputo derivative and f satisfies the Caratheodory condition. Using a fixed point theorem introduced by O’Regan in [], the authors proved the existence of solutions for the above initial value problem in .
In [], Boucenna et al. studied the following inital value problem of a nonlinear fractional differential equation:
where is the Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative of order , , The existence and uniqueness of the solutions were obtained through some fixed point theorems in Sobolev space.
By taking the existing ideas of some of the above articles, we now discuss the existence of solutions for the following initial value problem for the Hadamard fractional differential equation:
where , and f may be singular at . denotes the Hadamard fractional derivative of order and is defined by
and is the Hadamard fractional integral of order , where denotes the set of positive integers. We study the existence of one solution to the initial value problem (4) in a weighted function space defined as
According to previous studies, the existence of global solutions of differential equations on infinite intervals is based on two ideas: one is to construct a new function space to obtain the boundedness on infinite intervals, and then to use fixed point theory to obtain the existence of solutions of differential equations (see [,,,].) The other is to first study the existence of solutions of the differential equation on a finite interval, that is, the existence of local solutions, and then to expand the solutions to infinite intervals in combination with the continuous theorem (see [,,,,]).
As stated in [], the continuation theorems for nonlinear FDEs have not been derived yet. Thus, it is inconvenient, even impossible, to obtain the global existence of solutions by directly using the results on the local existence. In order to prove the existence of global solutions, continuation theorems for the nonlinear fractional initial value problems must be proved.
Integral inequalities play a significant role in discussions of the quantitative and qualitative behavior (such as boundedness, uniqueness, stability, and continuous dependence on the initial or boundary value and parameters of solutions) of solutions to differential equations, integral equations, and difference equations. These inequalities are being studied by an increasing number of scholars due to their richness, and they have been generalized, altered, and expanded in a wide range of ways, as can be seen in [,,,,]. To the best of our knowledge, inequalities with the Hadamard fractional integral have been studied less frequently in the past.
The initial value problem (4) differs from the initial value problems in the references [,]. The nonlinear term of the differential equation studied in [] does not contain any derivatives of lower order, while the nonlinear term of the equation in [] has only one special order derivative . There is also the fact that the conditions in this paper are weaker relative to the literature [,].
In Section 2, we prove a weakly singular inequality of the Hadamard fractional integral type with a doubly singular kernel. Avoiding utilizing function spaces like (2) in Section 3, we build a locally convex space which endows the whole space with the topology induced by a sufficient family of semi-norms, and introduce some properties in this space, in accordance with the idea of []. The inequality in Section 2 allows us to prove the existence and uniqueness of the positive solution to the linear integral equation in Section 4, after which we identify the existence of one solution to the initial value problem in the space generated in Section 3.
2. Some Preliminaries and Lemmas
In this section, we present the preliminary results needed in our proofs later. From here on, for a non-negative real number , we use to denote the function defined on J or by First of all, we list some basic lemmas about Hadamard fractional derivatives and integrals.

The following inequality in Lemma 6 plays an important role in proving the uniqueness of the solution to the integral Equation (20) corresponding to the initial value problem (Theorem 7 in Section 4). The method of proof we employ is similar in concept to that of [] to obtain the following inequality involving an integral with a doubly singular kernel.
Lemma 6.
Suppose that and , are non-negative. If is non-negative and satisfies
Then,

We need to prove the conclusion (7) holds with v replacing u; it implies that it suffices to suppose that Denote Let , is chosen arbitrarily. If , then,
If we have
We have arrived at the following conclusion after synthesizing the above findings,
Taking the supremum for , we obtain
By using the classical Gronwall’s inequality, we have
In (7), the parameter is indefinite; we then attempt to choose an “optimal” parameter to guarantee that the inequality holds and that the term is as small as possible. Let
By calculation, we have . is a maximum of and . If that is then is the ‘optimal’ parameter and we obtain
If or let and choose an arbitrary
Taking the supremum for gives Actually, this is a stronger conclusion than (8).
Lastly, we will show that the conclusion also holds for the general case. For any ,
According to the above conclusion, (8) is satisfied in , that is
therefore,
Since is arbitrary in then we obtain the conclusion. □
3. The Locally Convex Space
For readers’ convenience, first, some basic concepts and properties of locally convex and topological spaces are briefly reviewed (see the monographs [,,,] for further details).
Definition 1
([,]). If is a topology space, a base for is a collection such that
Lemma 7
([,]). Suppose that X is a non-empty set, , if satisfies
- (1)
- (2)
- If x belongs to the intersection of two basis elements and , then there is a basis element containing x such that .
Then, there is a unique topology with as the topological base.
Definition 2
([,]). A topological space X is said to be Hausdorff if whenever x and y are distinct points of X, there are disjoint open sets U and V in X with and
Definition 3
([,]). A topological space is metrizable if the topology τ is the metric topology for some metric ρ on X.
Definition 4
([,]). A real linear topological space (LTS) is a real linear space (vector space) X together with a topology such that, with respect to this topology,
- (1)
- the map of defined by is continuous;
- (2)
- the map of defined by is continuous.
Definition 5
([]). A locally convex space (LCS) is an LTS, whose topology is defined by a family of semi-norms such that .
Lemma 8
([]). X is an LTS, be a sequence of semi-norms on X, such that For x and y in X, define
Then, d is metric on X and the topology on X defined by d is the topology on X defined by the semi-norms Thus, X is metrizable if, and only if, its topology is determined by a countable family of semi-norms.
From here up to Theorem 5, we always suppose that . Define a function space as follows:
Consider the family of semi-norms on X, where is defined by
For every set where All of the finite intersection of elements of form a collection , that is
The function space denoted as X will be referenced in Section 4, where we will establish the existence of solutions to the initial value problem (4) on a specific subset of this space. As a result, the subsequent analysis will concentrate on investigating pertinent characteristics of this particular function space.
Theorem 1.
There exists a unique topology such that is a base for the topology.
Proof of Theorem 1.
The condition (1) in Lemma 7 is clearly satisfied. Next, we will show the condition (2) also holds. For any where
Suppose then Choose a number satisfying
Define then This implies that For each then Therefore, for
Hence,
Define
It is clear that is a topology with as the topological base. The proof of uniqueness can be obtained directly by the definition. □
Remark 1.
In accordance with the theorem, a subset U of X is an open set if, and only if, for every point in U, there exist and such that Moreover, for any the family consisting of ball is a neighborhood-base at x with respect to Therefore, a set V is a neighborhood of x with respect to if and only if there exist such that
Theorem 2.
is Hausdorff, LCS, and metrizable.
Proof of Theorem 2.
We claim that the conclusion is sustained. If not, there exists such that i.e., Then, Hence, , which is a contradiction. In light of this, for any and , there exists such that Choose a positive number satisfying Set ; it is apparent that are open sets containing x and y, respectively, and Therefore, we know the topology must be Hausdorff.
To prove that is an LCS, by Definitions 4 and 5, it suffices to prove is an LTS. From the properties of the semi-norm, we can reach the conclusion that the vector space operations (addition and scalar multiplication) are continuous with respect to the topology .
Define a metric on X by
let be the topology induced by . According to Lemma 8, we know coincides with . By Theorem 1, the topology is generated by a countable family of semi-norms; it follows that topology is metrizable. □
Theorem 3.
A sequence converges to 0 with respect to if, and only if, it satisfies the following conditions:
- (i)
- converge uniformly to 0 on any compact set
- (ii)
- converge to 0 when uniformly with respect to , i.e., for any there exists and such that for all
Proof of Theorem 3.
We first show that the sufficiency holds. Suppose that satisfies . Let V be an arbitrary neighbourhood of 0 with respect to From Remark 1, we have and such that Due to the condition , we choose such that (9) holds.
For then for all , we have
then, we obtain for all
For , let According to the condition there exists such that for all we obtain
Consequently, for all and , we infer
These three inequalities imply that then, for all we conclude that Hence, converges to 0 with respect to .
Next, we will prove the necessity holds. Suppose converges to 0 with respect to . In order to show holds, choose an arbitrary compact set , let Then, and For , let let n be a natural number with is a neighborhood of 0 with respect to , based on the convergence of , there exists such that for all . Then, for all , we have
therefore,
these mean that converge to 0 on I.
Now, let us prove that holds. For any , since is a neighborhood of 0 with respect to , there exists such that for all Then, for all , we have
Thus, the proof is completed. □
Theorem 4.
The metrizable locally convex space is complete.
Proof of Theorem 4.
Choose an arbitrary sequence in We will prove that the sequence is convergent by the following five steps.
Step 1 For any and are Cauchy sequences in
Let be arbitrarily fixed, and Set . Since is a Cauchy sequence and is a neighborhood of 0 with respect to , there exists for any , we have Then,
and
Whence,
It follows that and are Cauchy sequences in Let be the limits of and , respectively, i.e.,
Step 2 and satisfy the condition in Theorem 3, i.e.,
Since is a Cauchy sequence in X, just as the proof of necessity of Theorem 3, the conclusion (11) is satisfied. Meanwhile, by (11), we have
Step 3 For any , there exists such that for then,
In fact, since is a neighborhood of 0 with respect to there exists for all as a result, for all we have
The conclusion (12) is obtained let .
Step 4 The limits and exist.
We first prove the limit exists. In fact, for any , it follows from (12) that there exists such that
Choose with , since the limit exists, it results that there exist and , such that for all with we have
Then, for with combining (13) and (14), we have
Similarly, we infer that and exist.
Step 5
For any and compact set we know . From (11), we have and converge uniformly to 0 on I, according to Lemma 5, then
Since I is arbitrary, we know
Summarizing the above steps, it follows from Theorem 3 that converges to 0 with respect to □
Theorem 5.
Let be a metrizable locally convex space, then is relatively compact in provided that it satisfies the following conditions:
- (i)
- Y is pointwise bounded on J;
- (ii)
- Y is equicontinuous on J;
- (iii)
- Y is equiconvergent at , i.e., for every there exists such that for all one hasand
Proof of Theorem 5.
Define another linear space
Consider a family of semi-norms on , where is defined by
Let be the topology induced by the family , with the proof of Theorems 1, 2, and 4, we know is also a locally convex space which is metrizable and complete. Obviously, the convergence in is exactly the uniform convergence, then and on every compact subset Then, is the topology of compact convergence.
For any associated with this function, we define a new function as follows:
It is clear that For any we have
and If we define as the value of at ; likewise, we take as the value of at . Then, we deduce that
Hence,
Choose an arbitrary subset satisfying , let where is defined as the formula (15), then is pointwise bounded and equicontinuous on . By the Arzela–Ascoli theorem, it follows that is relatively compact in Let be any sequence in Y, for every , imitating the formula (15), we rewrite as , then So, there must be a subsequence and such that with respect to Then,
Let , then In order to show that converges to 0 with respect to , we only need to verify that the sequence satisfies all the conditions of Theorem 3.
For any compact set , there exists such that From (16), we know for any , there exists such that
Then, for we have
These imply that
From (16), we know and converge uniformly to 0 on [1,2]. For any , there exists such that for any we have
i.e.,
From (17) and (18), all the conditions in Theorem 3 hold; it follows that converges to 0 with respect to the topology . Consequently, Y is relatively compact in □
Now, we assume that . Define another function space as follows:
Consider the family of semi-norms on X, where is defined by
Let . Just like the set and applying these sets , we construct some new sets and . Then, we arrive at the same conclusions as Theorems 2–5, which are fully summarized in the following Theorem 6.
Theorem 6.
- (1)
- is Hausdorff, LCS, and metrizable.
- (2)
- A sequence converges to 0 with respect to if, and only if, it satisfies the following conditions:
- (i)
- converge uniformly to 0 on any compact set

- Y is pointwise bounded on ;
- (ii)
- Y is equicontinuous on ;
- (iii)
- Y is equiconvergent at , i.e., for every there exists such that for all one hasand
For convenience, we will uniformly denote the function spaces X and as X. Depending on the range of , we will use the space X or accordingly.
4. Main Results
First, we list the following conditions which will be used in the the subsequent theorems.
Hypothesis 1.
There exist three constants and non-negative functions , such that and where or and . In addition, are two arbitrary positive constants satisfying
Hypothesis 2.
is continuous and
Remark 2.
Since just adopts the definition form as above, and according to the properties of the gamma function, its true expression is it is obvious that
For convenience, we introduce some notations:
Remark 3.
By direct calculation, we know if , then
If Let
Then, and we can rewrite the function as Similarly, let
Then, we have and
Theorem 7.
Assume that Hypothesis 1 holds. Then, the integral equation
has a unique positive solution
Proof of Theorem 7.
For each , when we define a Banach space as follows:
which is equipped with a norm
Similarly, when we also denote
a Banach space by defining a norm
Denote a set with the form
Clearly, P is a cone of .
Next, we define an operator by
From Lemma 4, applying the operator to , we have
When for any using Hypothesis 1, we have
If then we choose and change to in the above formula. By virtue of (24)–(26), let then,
When by the same deduction method, we have
then,
By (27) and (28), we deduce , and exist. From (21), for any , we know
Hypothesis 1 naturally gives the conclusion Likewise, and According to the above assertions, it follows that is well-defined. Due to Hypothesis 1, we can easily show that is completely continuous.
Obviously, in order to show that the integral Equation (20) has a unique positive solution, it suffices to show that the equation has a unique positive solution in for each , that is, to prove that the operator has a unique fixed point in P. According to the Leray–Schauder alternative theorem, to prove that has a unique fixed point, we need to show that is bounded. Suppose that there exists such that We discuss it separately in the two cases:
- (1)
Adding the left and right sides of (29)–(31), respectively, we obtain an inequality about the function
where is defined in Remark 3. An application of Lemma 6 yields
Since the functions q and g are increasing, it is immediately seen that
Consequently, we deduce that
When let , we estimate each of the three terms of the function separately.
Adding the estimation results of the above three inequalities, we have
where
Applying Lemma 6 again, we have
Hence, according to the fact that the functions and are increasing, we deduce that
By virtue of the Leray–Schauder alternative theorem, has a fixed point . Based on the operator’s expression and conditions, the fixed point of the operator is confirmed to be positive.
Finally, we will show that the fixed point is unique. Suppose there is another fixed point Let Similar to the derivation shown above, we obtain
where g is defined in (32). For let
then where is defined in (33). Applying Lemma 6, we derive which means that . □
Next, we will establish a subset of the function space X by utilizing the unique positive solution of the integral equation as defined in Theorem 7. Subsequently, we will demonstrate the existence of the fixed point of nonlinear integral operators to establish the existence of a solution for the initial value problem.
Theorem 8.
Suppose that Hypotheses 1 and 2 hold. Then, for any , the initial value problem (4) has at least one solution
Proof of Theorem 8.
Obviously, a function is a solution of the initial value problem (4) if, and only if, it is a solution of the integral equation
Consider an operator defined by
In order to show that the integral Equation (34) has a solution, it suffices to prove that the operator A has a fixed point. Based on the condition Hypothesis 1 and Theorem 7, we know A is well-defined. Next, we will prove that A has at least one fixed point in X.
The following discussion will proceed under this assumption Let be the unique solution to the integral Equation (20). It is easily seen that Based on this function, we construct a subset as below
Then, is a nonempty closed convex subset of X. For any , by Hypothesis 2, we have
and
Therefore,
Next, we will show that is continuous. For any , let be a neighborhood of with respect to the topology , by Remark 1, there exist such that . In order to show A is continuous at x, it suffices to find a neighborhood of x and prove that
In (24)–(26), replacing the function with the function , these estimates still hold. Let the right-side functions of these estimates give the limit 0. For there exists such that
Let
for the following conclusions are satisfied:
For the foregoing , we have
On the other hand, set
then f is uniformly continuous on Hence, choose a positive number , for any with the following inequality is satisfied
Let where , then is a neighborhood of x. It remains to prove that for any i.e., For any then and
For any we have and . According to (35)–(37), we deduce that
Similarly, we have
Again, according to (35) and (37), we have
Meanwhile, by (36),
Therefore, synthesizing the above conclusions, one has
From (38)–(40), we obtain
which implies that on account of the arbitrariness of y, we have and A is continuous at x.
Finally, we will show that is relatively compact in X. Due to Theorem 5, what we need to do is to prove that satisfies those three conditions – of the theorem. Since all the functions in are controlled by , then is pointwise bounded on J. The next task is to show that satisfies the condition . Let be arbitrarily chosen, then choose and a real number such that Set
For any , there exists such that For any with , one has
For convenience, the latter two integrals (41) and (42) are estimated separately.
Synthesizing the above inequalities and substituting them into (41) and (42), we further obtain
Let by (43), it follows that In the same way, we have
As regards , we first make the following estimates.
Combining the above conclusions, we infer
Whence, by virtue of (43)–(45), the condition is satisfied.
Now let us verify that condition is also true. Note the fact combining this limit with (27), we conclude that for any , there exists such that for all one has
and
For any by (27) and Hypothesis 2, we infer that
Consequently, for any we have
and
When the continuity and compactness of the operator A are obtained in the same way, omitted here.
To sum up, is continuous and is relatively compact in X. According to Schäuder’s fixed point theorem, A has at least one fixed point in then the initial value problem (4) has at least one solution. □
The subsequent example will serve to further substantiate the practicality and validity of Theorem 8.
Example 1.
Consider the following initial value problem of the fractional differential equation:
where . Let
and then all the parameters and the functions satisfy Hypothesis 1 and Moreover, then the hypothesis Hypothesis 2 holds. Theorem 8 guarantees that the initial value problem (46) has at least one solution
5. Conclusions
This study investigates the existence of solutions to the initial value problem associated with a Hadamard-type fractional order differential equation on an infinite interval. The equation’s nonlinear term incorporates lower-order derivatives of the unknown functions. Initially, a weak singular inequality for Hadamard fractional integrals with a doubly singular kernel is derived, and subsequently applied to demonstrate the existence of a unique solution to the integral equation corresponding to the original initial value problem. Rather than employing the traditional approach of establishing global solutions for differential equations on infinite intervals, a fixed point theorem on a metrizable complete locally convex space is utilized to establish the existence of at least one solution to the initial value problem.
