Existence and uniqueness of nonlinear fractional differential equations with the Caputo and the Atangana-Baleanu derivatives: Maximal, minimal and Chaplygin approaches

<p>This work provided a detailed theoretical analysis of fractional ordinary differential equations with Caputo and the Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivative. The work started with an extension of Tychonoff's fixed point and the Perron principle to prove the global existence with extra conditions due to the properties of the fractional derivatives used. Then, a detailed analysis of the existence of maximal and minimal solutions was presented for both cases. Then, using Chaplygin's approach with extra conditions, we also established the existence and uniqueness of the solutions of these equations. The Abel and the Bernoulli equations were considered as illustrative examples and were solved using the fractional middle point method.</p>
