Abstract
This paper analyzes the Bagley–Torvik fractional-order equation with generalized fractional Hilfer derivatives of two orders for functions in Banach spaces under conditions expressed in the language of weak topology. We develop a comprehensive theory of fractional-order differential equations of various orders. Our focus is on the equivalence results (or the lack thereof) of this new class of fractional-order Hilfer operators and on maximizing the regularity of the solution. To this end, we examine the equivalence of differential problems involving pseudo-derivatives and integral problems involving Pettis integrals. Our results are novel, even within the context of integer-order differential equations. Another objective is to incorporate fractional-order problems into the growing research field that uses weak topology and function spaces to study vector-valued functions. The auxiliary results obtained in this article are general and applicable beyond its scope.
