Discrete fractional order two-point boundary value problem with some relevant physical applications

Abstract

AbstractThe results reported in this paper are concerned with the existence and uniqueness of solutions of discrete fractional order two-point boundary value problem. The results are developed by employing the properties of Caputo and Riemann–Liouville fractional difference operators, the contraction mapping principle and the Brouwer fixed point theorem. Furthermore, the conditions for Hyers–Ulam stability and Hyers–Ulam–Rassias stability of the proposed discrete fractional boundary value problem are established. The applicability of the theoretical findings has been demonstrated with relevant practical examples. The analysis of the considered mathematical models is illustrated by figures and presented in tabular forms. The results are compared and the occurrence of overlapping/non-overlapping has been discussed.
