On One Point Singular Nonlinear Initial Boundary Value Problem for a Fractional Integro-Differential Equation via Fixed Point Theory

Abstract

In this article, we focus on examining the existence, uniqueness, and continuous dependence of solutions on initial data for a specific initial boundary value problem which mainly arises from one-dimensional quasi-static contact problems in nonlinear thermo-elasticity. This problem concerns a fractional nonlinear singular integro-differential equation of order θ∈[0,1]. The primary methodology involves the application of a fixed point theorem coupled with certain a priori bounds. The feasibility of solving this problem is established under the context of data related to a weighted Sobolev space. Furthermore, an additional result related to the regularity of the solution for the formulated problem is also presented.
