Abstract

This paper is concerned with qualitative properties of solutions to an initial value problem for nonlinear implicit fractional differential equations involving the Caputo-Hadamard derivative. Existence of solutions is obtained under sufficient conditions by means of Schauder’s fixed point theorem. A Gronwall-type inequality is then applied to derive estimates of solutions and to establish continuous dependence on the initial data, from which uniqueness follows. The Ulam-type stability is also investigated by a fixed point approach in a generalized metric space. Examples are given to illustrate the obtained results.
