ABSTRACT

In this work, we use the notion of convex power condensing mapping under measure of noncompactness in locally convex spaces and establish some new coupled fixed point results. The results proved herein are the generalization and extension of some widely known results in the existing literature. Furthermore, we apply our results for the existence of solution to infinite system of ordinary differential equations and system of fractional hybrid differential equations.

1. Introduction

The Mathematical model has a vital role in Mathematical analysis and supports plenty of real-world problems. Some of the problems that come up in geology, physical sciences, engineering, mechanics, applied mathematics and economics find its way into mathematical models expressed by differential equations. The following equation can be used to simulate many real-world problems. (1) f(u)+g(u)=u,uA,(1) where A is a subset of a linear space. The operator form of (Equation1) is (2) T=f+g,(2) where f is a contraction in some sense (expansive or nonexpansive), and g fulfils some conditions (completely continuous, compactness, convex power condensing, …) and T itself has neither of these properties. To check the existence of solution, we use fixed point theory, because the problem of existence solution usually turns into the problem of finding a fixed point of a particular mapping. Due to this fact, the results of fixed point theory could be implemented to get results of an operator equation. Thus finding the existence solution of Equation (Equation1) is equivalent to finding the fixed point of the operator equation (Equation2). To find the fixed point of Equation (Equation2), it becomes desirable to develop fixed point theorems for such situations. An early theorem of this type was given by Krasnosel'skii [Citation1], which combined both the Schauder fixed point theorem and the Banach fixed point theorem. In Krasnosel'skii fixed point theorem, the notion of the compactness plays an essential role. To tackle this obstacle, a feasible technique is to use the notion of measure of noncompactness (MNC, for short).

The notion of MNC suggested by Kuratowski [Citation2] is a new area for the researchers. The MNC appears in several contexts and played a key role in various branches of mathematics, especially in nonlinear analysis and determines the existence of solution to non-linear problems. On the other hand, Sun and Zhang [Citation3] launched the notion of convex power condensing mapping under the Kuratowski MNC. This notion was extended by Ezzinbi and Taoudi [Citation4] and then by Shi [Citation5]. Recently, Khchine et al. [Citation6] extended the view of a convex power condensing operator T in connection with another operator S of [Citation5] in complete Hausdorff locally convex space. In particular, they relaxed the compactness condition in Krasnosel'skii fixed point theorem by using the notion of MNC.

In fixed point theory, one of the remarkable and pivotal result is a coupled fixed point theorem, which was introduced by Guo and Lakhsmikantham [Citation7]. Bhaskar and Lakhsmikantham [Citation8] were the pioneers who used coupled fixed points results for the existence of unique solution to a periodic boundary value problem. Many prominent researchers have taken greater interest regarding the application potential of coupled fixed point theory.

Using the notions of MNC and a convex-power condensing mapping, we established coupled fixed point results in complete Hausdorff locally convex space. Further, we apply our results for the existence solution to two classes of infinite system of ordinary differential equations and system of fractional hybrid differential equations. In support we provide an example for the effectiveness of our existence results.

2. Preliminaries

Thoroughly this work, I=[0,k] with (k>0) denote the real numbers set by R, the topological dual of a locally convex space H by H, the collection of all bounded subsets of H by B(H) and the class of semi-norms which produces the topology on H by P={pα}αI.

Also, A¯ stands for the closure of A, co¯(A) stands for the closure convex hull of A. Moreover, let us denote Φ={β|β:[0,)[0,) such that β(u)<ufor u>0andβ(0)=0} and Γ={γ|γ:[0,)[0,) such that γ(u)>u for u>0 andγ(0)=0}. Note that the semi-norm pα for the product space is defined as pα(u,v)=pα(u)+pα(v). Now, we list some basic concepts and essential results.

Definition 2.1

[Citation9]

Let (H,Υ) be a Hausdorff topological vector space with 0 as its zero element and L be a lattice with θ as its least element. Then a function Υ:B(H)L is called an MNC on H if it fulfils the following axioms:

  1. Υ(co¯(Q))=Υ(Q) for every QB(H);

  2. Q1Q2Υ(Q1)Υ(Q2) (Monotonicity);

  3. Υ({a}Q)=Υ(Q) for any aH and QB(H);

  4. Υ(Q)=0Q is relatively compact in H (Regularity).

Additionally, if L is a cone in a linear space over the real field, then the MNC Υ is

  1. homogeneous if Υ(λQ)=|λ|Υ(Q) for every QB(H) and λR;

  2. subadditive if Υ(Q1Q2)Υ(Q1)+Υ(Q2) for every Q1,Q2B(H).

Definition 2.2

Let MH such that M. Then a mapping F:MH is

  1. pα-contraction if for every αI, there exist κα[0,1) such that pα(Fυ1Fυ2)καpα(υ1υ2),for all υ1,υ2M,

  2. pα-nonexpansive if for every αI, we have pα(Fυ1Fυ2)pα(υ1υ2),for all υ1,υ2M,

  3. pα-expansive if for every αI, there exists κα[1,) such that pα(Fυ1Fυ2)καpα(υ1υ2),for all υ1,υ2M.

Definition 2.3

Let X be a nonempty set. Then the mapping G:X×XX has a coupled fixed point (υ1,υ2)X×X, if G(υ1,υ2)=υ1 and G(υ2,υ1)=υ2.

Let P be a non-empty, closed and convex subset of X with u0P. Let f:PX and g:XX be two non-linear mappings. Then for any QP, set (f,g,Q)=(1,u0)(f,g,Q)={uP:u=gu+fv, for some vQ} and (m,u0)(f,g,Q)=(1,u0)(f,g,co¯((m1,u0)(f,g,Q){u0})) for m=2,3,.

Definition 2.4

[Citation6]

Let P be a non-empty, closed and convex subset of a complete Hausdorff locally convex space X with u0P and f,g:PX are two bounded mappings. If Υ is an MNC on X such that Υ((m0,u0)(f,g,Q))<Υ(Q), where QP is bounded with Υ(Q)>0. Then f is g-convex power condensing mapping about u0 and m0N under Υ. Definitely, f:PP is convex power condensing mapping under Υ about u0 and m0 iff f is 0-convex power condensing under Υ about u0 and m0.

Throughout the rest of this work, Ω=(H,{pα}αI) is a Hausdorff locally convex space, P is a non-empty, convex, complete and bounded subset of Ω and Υ is an MNC on Ω.

Theorem 2.5

[Citation6]

Let f:PΩ and g:HH be two mappings such that

  1. f is continuous;

  2. g is pα-contraction;

  3. there exists a vector u0 in P and a positive integer m0, for which f is g-convex power condensing about u0 and m0 under Υ;

  4. if u = gu + fv for some vP, then uP.

Then there is at least one fixed point of f + g in P.

Theorem 2.6

[Citation6]

Theorem 2.5 is true if we interchange the condition (C3) by

  1. p1f(P) implies g(P)+p1P, where g(P)+p1={p2+p1,p2g(P)}.

Definition 2.7

[Citation10]

The Riemann–Liouville fractional integral of order σ>0 of a function fL1(R+) is (3) Iσf(t)=1Γ(σ)0t(ts)σ1f(s)ds(3) as long as the right side is pointwise defined on (0,).

Definition 2.8

[Citation10]

Let σ>0 with p1σ<p, pN and f(p)(x) exists. The Caputo fractional order derivative of f is (4) cDσf(t)=1Γ(pσ)0t(ts)pσ1f(p)(s)ds,(4) as long as the right side is pointwise defined on (0,), where p=[σ]+1 and [σ] represent the integer part of σ.

3. Fixed point results

In this section, we present coupled fixed point results. To proceed further, let τ,f:PΩ and g:HH and H~=H×H, P~=P×P. Define τ~,f~:P~H~ and g~:H~H~ by τ~(x1,x2)=(τx1,τx2),f~(x1,x2)=(fx1,fx2),andg~(x1,x2)=(gx2,gx1). Now, since (G(x1,x2),G(x2,x1))=(fx1+gx2,fx2+gx1)=(fx1,fx2)+(gx2,gx1)=f~(x1,x2)+g~(x1,x2).

Thus to prove that G(x1,x2) has a coupled fixed point in P~, it is sufficient to show that f~(x1,x2)+g~(x1,x2) has a fixed point in P~.

Theorem 3.1

Let f:PΩ and g:HH be two mappings fulfilling the following conditions:

  1. f is continuous;

  2. there exists βgΦ and κα[0,1) such that pα(gugv)καβg(pα(uv)),for all u,vΩ;

  3. if u=gu+fv for some u,vP, then uP.

Then there is a coupled fixed point of G(u,v)=fu+gv in P~.

Proof.

One can easily check that Ω~ is a Hausdorff locally convex space and P~ is a non-empty, bounded, complete and convex subset of Ω~.

We have to show that the mappings f~ and g~ fulfil all the conditions of Theorem 2.5. First, we check the continuity of f~, for this we have pα(f~(u1,v1)f~(u2,v2))=pα(fu1,fv1)(fu2,fv2)=pαfu1fu2,fv1fv2)=pαfu1fu2+pαfv1fv2). But f is continuous, so that f~ is continuous.

Now, we prove that g~ is pα-contraction. Let u=(u1,u2),v=(v1,v2)Ω~, then on using condition (C2), we have pαg~ug~v=pα(gu2,gu1)(gv2,gv1)=pαgu2gv2,gu1gv1=pαgu1gv1+pαgu2gv2)καβg(pα(u1v1))+καβg(pα(u2v2))<κα(pα(u1v1))+(pα(u2v2))=καpα(u1v1,u2v2)=καpα(uv). Thus g~ is pα-contraction.

Next, we must show that there is a vector u0P~ and an integer m0>0 such that the mapping f~ is g~-convex power condensing about u0 and m0 under Υ. For this, let Q~P~ such that Q~ is bounded and Υ(Q~)>0 and let τ~ be the map that assigns a unique point in Ω~ to each (u1,u2)P~ such that τ~(u1,u2)=g~(τ~(u1,u2))+f~(u1,u2). Then (τu1,τu2)=g~(τu1,τu2)+f~(u1,u2)=(g(τu2),g(τu1))+(fu1,fu2)=(g(τu2)+fu1,g(τu1)+fu2), which implies that τu1=g(τu2)+fu1 and τu2=g(τu1)+fu2, by condition (C3), (τu1,τu2)P~, that is τ~(u1,u2)P~ for each (u1,u2)P~, thus τ~(P~)P~. Let L={Q~P~,co¯(Q~)=Q~,u0Q~andτ~(Q~)Q~}. Let us claim that for any positive integer m, (5) co¯(m,u0)(f~,g~,Q~){u0}=Q~.(5) To support our claim, we use induction. As co¯(τ~(Q~){u0})Q~, so that τ~co¯(τ~(Q~){u0})τ~Q~co¯τ~(Q~){u0}. That is, co¯(τ~(Q~){u0})L and hence Q~co¯(τ~(Q~){u0}). Thus Q~=co¯(τ~(Q~){u0}). This shows that Equation (Equation5) is true for m = 1. Assume that Equation (Equation5) is true for m = k>1, that is, co¯((k,u0)(f~,g~,Q~){u0})=Q~. Then (k+1,u0)(f~,g~,Q~)=(1,u0)(f~,g~,co¯((k,u0)(f~,g~,Q~){u0}))=(1,u0)(f~,g~,Q~)=τ~(Q~). Thus co¯(k+1,u0)(f~,g~,Q~){u0}=co¯τ~(Q~){u0}=Q~. Hence by induction our claim (Equation5) is true. In particular, (6) co¯(m0,u0)(f~,g~,Q~){u0}=Q~.(6)

Now, using (Equation6) and the fact that (m0,u0)(f~,g~,Q~)(m0,u0)(f~,g~,Q~){u0}, we have Υ(m,u0)f~,g~,Q~=Υco¯(m,u0)f~,g~,Q~<Υco¯(m,u0)f~,g~,Q~{u0}=ΥQ~. Hence f~ is g~-convex power condensing about u0 and m0 under Υ.

Finally, if u=g~u+f~v, for some v=(v1,v2)P~, then we have to show that u=(u1,u2)P~. For this, since (u1,u2)=g~(u1,u2)+f~(v1,v2)=(gu2,gu1)+(fv1,fv2)=(gu2+fv1,gu1+fv2), which implies that u1=gu2+fv1 and u2=gu1+fv2, by condition (C3), u1,u2P and hence uP~. Thus by Theorem 2.5, there exists at least one fixed point of f~+g~ in P~ and hence there exists at least one coupled fixed point of G(u,v) in P~.

Remark 3.2

The arguments of Theorem 3.1 are the same if we alternatively change the contraction in (C2) by pα-contraction.

From Theorem 3.1, without any hurdle we can derive the following corollary.

Corollary 3.3

Let P be a non-empty, convex, bounded and closed subset of a Banach space Ω. Let f:PΩ and g:ΩΩ be two mappings such that

  1. f is continuous;

  2. there exists βgΦ and k(0,1) such that gugvkβg(uv),for all u,vΩ;

  3. if u=gu+fv for some u,vP, then uP.

Then there exists a coupled fixed point of G(u,v)=fu+gv in P~.

Remark 3.4

Corollary 3.3 generalizes Theorem 1 of [Citation11]. In Theorem 1 of [Citation11], f:PΩ is completely continuous, however in Corollary 3.3, f:PΩ is continuous.

If Ω0 is a Banach space equipped with its weak topology, then Ω0 is locally convex induced by the family of seminorms pf(x)=|f(x)| for all fΩ0. We can deduce corollary from Theorem 3.1 as:

Corollary 3.5

Let P be a non-empty, convex, closed and bounded subset of a Banach space Ω0. Let f:PΩ0 and g:Ω0Ω0 be two mappings such that

  1. f is weakly sequentially continuous;

  2. there exists βgΦ and for each φΩ0, there exists 0<kφ<1 such that for all u,vΩ0, we have φ(S(u)S(v))kφβg(φ(uv));

  3. if u=gu+fv for some u,vP, then uP.

Then there exists a coupled fixed point of G(u,v)=fu+gv in P~.

Theorem 3.6

Theorem 3.1 is true if we interchange the conditions (C2) and (C3) by

  1. there exists βgΦ and κα[0,1) such that pα(gugv)καβg(pα(uv)),for all u,vΩ;

  2. p1f(P) implies g(P)+p1P, where g(P)+p1={p2+p1,p2g(P)}.

Proof.

We need to show that the mappings f~ and g~ fulfil all the conditions of Theorem 2.6 on Ω~. f~ is continuous and g~-convex power condensing under Υ as proved in Theorem 3.1.

Now, we show that g~ is pα-expansive. To do this, using condition (C2) we have for every u=(u1,u2),v=(v1,v2)Ω~, pαg~ug~v=pα(gu1,gu2)(gv1,gv2)=pαgu1gv1,gu2gv2=pαgu1gv1+pαgu2gv2)καγg(pα(u1v1))+καγg(pα(u2v2))>καpα(u1v1)+pα(u2v2)=καpα(u1v1,u2v2)=καpα(uv). Thus g~ is pα-expansive.

Finally, let w~f(P)~. Then we have to show that g(P)~+w~P~. For this, since (w1,w2)=w~f(P)~ implies that w1,w2f(P) and thus by condition (C3), we have g(P)+w1P and  g(P)+w2P{v1+w1:v1g(P)}Pand{v2+w2:v2g(P)}P{(v1+w1,v2+w2):(v1,v2)g(P)~}P~{(v1,v2)+(w1,w2):(v1,v2)g(P)~}P~{v~+w~:v~=(v1,v2)g(P)~}P~g(P)~+w~P~. Thus by Theorem 2.6, there exists at least one fixed point of f~+g~ in P~ and hence there exists at least one coupled fixed point of G(u,v) in P~.

Remark 3.7

The arguments of Theorem 3.6 are the same if we change the contraction in (Cˆ2) by pα-expansive.

4. Existence results

4.1. Infinite systems of differential equations

Let E=C(I,X) be the space of continuous functions from I to X and P~={p~α:each p~α is semi-normsdefined by p~α=maxtIpα(a(t)), for each aE}. Note that, E equipped with the topology induced by the class P~ is a complete Hausdorff locally convex space. In this section, we are interested with the existence solution to the following two classes of infinite system of ordinary differential equations: (7) ddtai(t)j=1iki,jaj(t)=ϕi(t,bi(t)),i=1,2,3,,ddtbi(t)j=1iki,jbj(t)=ϕi(t,ai(t)),i=1,2,3,,ai(0)=bi(0)=0,i=1,2,3,,(7) where tI,ki,j0 and ϕi(i=1,2,) are continuous mappings on I×Rω(Rω=iNXi is the countable Cartesian product of Xi=R) and take real values. Note that the derivative in (Equation7) measures the speed of change in time for every parameter/coordinate.

Lemma 4.1

Integral representation of the class of two infinite systems (Equation7) is (8) a(t)=φa(t)+0tϕ(s,b(s))ds,b(t)=φb(t)+0tϕ(s,a(s))ds,(8) where a=(ai)Rω,b(t)=(bi)Rω,ϕ=(ϕi) and φ=(φi) with φi(a)=j=1iki,jaj(t)(i=1,2,) for each a(t)=(ai(t))Rω.

Theorem 4.2

The class of two infinite systems (Equation7) has at least one solution in C(I,Rω) if the following conditions hold:

  1. for ki,j0 and Λ2, we have j=1iki,jpαa(t)b(t)Λ2maxtIpαa(t)b(t),

  2. there exists a continuous function ξC(I,R) such that ϕ(t,a(t))ξ(t), aRω,tI.

Proof.

Define ME by M=αIaMα:pαa(t)a(s),t,sI, where Mα={aE:p~α(a)Ξ} with Ξj=1iki,jp~α(aj)+kp~α(ξ) and =1Λ2maxtIpα(a(t1)a(t2))+2kp~α(ξ). Clearly M is a convex, closed, bounded and complete.

Now, since a(t) is a solution of (Equation7) if and only if a(t) satisfies (Equation8). Thus to show the existence solution of (Equation7), it is enough to show the existence solution of (Equation8). For this, define S:EE and T:ME by Sa(t)=φa(t);Ta(t)=0tϕ(s,a(s))ds. The system (Equation8) is turned into the system (9) a(t)=Sa(t)+Tb(t);b(t)=Sb(t)+Ta(t),tI.(9)

We have to show that the system (Equation9) fulfils all the conditions of Theorem 3.1. First we show the continuity of T. For this, let us take the sequence {an} in M such that anaE as n. For αI and tI, one can write pαTan(t)Ta(t)=pα0tϕ(s,an(s))ϕ(s,a(s))ds0tpαϕ(s,an(s))ϕ(s,a(s))ds=0tpαϕi(s,an(s))ϕ(s,a(s))ds. But ϕi is continuous, so pα(ϕi(s,an(s))ϕ(s,a(s)))0 as n and by Lebesgue Dominated convergent theorem pα(Tan(t)Ta(t))0 as n. Thus TanTa as n and hence T is continuous.

Next, we show condition (C2) of Theorem 3.1. For this, let a,bE and tI, we have pαSaSb=pαφa(t)φb(t)=pαj=1iki,jaj(t)j=1iki,jbj(t)j=1iki,jpαaj(t)bj(t)j=1iki,jmaxtIpαaj(t)bj(t)j=1iki,jmaxtIpαa(t)b(t)=maxtIpαa(t)b(t)j=1iki,j1Λ2pαa(t)b(t)=kαβS(pα(ab)), where βS(x)=x/ΛΦ is a control function and kα=1/Λ.

Finally, we prove condition (C3) of Theorem 3.1. For this, let a,bM such that a=Sa+Tb, then for αI,tI and using (A1), we have pαa(t)=pαSa(t)+Tb(t)pαφa(t)+pα0tϕ(τ,b(τ))dτ)dτpαj=1iki,jaj(t)+0tpαϕ(τ,b(τ))dτj=1iki,jpαaj(t)+0tpαξ(τ)dτj=1iki,jp~αaj+t p~αξj=1iki,jp~αaj+k p~αξΞ. Consequently, p~α(a)Ξ. Moreover, for every 0t1t2k,, we can write pαa(t1)a(t2)=pαSa(t1)+Tb(t1)Sa(t2)Tb(t2)pαSa(t1)Sa(t2)+pαTb(t1)Tb(t2)=pαφa(t1)φa(t2)+pα0t1ϕ(τ,b(τ))dτ0t2ϕ(τ,b(τ))dτ=pαφa(t1)φa(t2)+pα0t1ϕ(τ,b(τ))dτ+t20ϕ(τ,b(τ))dτ=pαφa(t1)φa(t2)+pαt2t1ϕ(τ,b(τ))dτpαj=1iki,jaj(t1)j=1iki,jaj(t2)+t2t1pαϕ(τ,b(τ))dτj=1iki,jpαaj(t1)aj(t2)+t2t1pαξ(τ)dτj=1iki,jmaxtIpαa(t1)a(t2)+t2t1p~αξdτmaxpαa(t1)a(t2)j=1iki,j+tIp~αξ|t1t2|1Λ2maxtIpαa(t1)a(t2)+p~αξ(|t1|+|t2|)1Λ2maxtIpαa(t1)a(t2)+2kp~αξ, which implies that pαa(t1)a(t2). Thus aM. Therefore, by Theorem (3.1), there exists at least one coupled fixed point of G(x,y)=Tx+Sy in M~. Consequently, the class of two infinite systems (Equation7) has at least one solution a(t)=(ai(t))C(I,Rω), where i=1,2,3,.

4.2. Fractional hybrid differential equations

Let X=C(I,R) endowed with the supremum norm. Then X is a Banach space with respect to supremum norm and pointwise operations. Throughout this section, C(I×R,R) and C(I×R×R,R) represent the class of continuous functions f:I×RR and the class of functions g:I×R×RR, respectively, such that for each a,bR

  1. the map tg(γ,a,b) is measurable,

  2. the maps ag(γ,x1,b) and bg(γ,x1,b) are continuous.

Bashiri et al. [Citation11] studied the existence solution of fractional order hybrid differential equations: (10) Dpa()f(,a())=g(,b(),Iσb()),a.e. I,Dpb()f(,b())=g(,a(),Iσa()),a.e. I,a(0)=0,b(0)=0,(10) where σ>0, p(0,1), and the functions f:I×RR,f(0,0)=0 and g:I×R×RR satisfy certain conditions. Dp is the Riemann–Liouville fractional order derivative.

We will discuss the existence solution of fractional order hybrid differential equations: (11) Dpa()f(,a())=g(,b(),Iσb()),a.e.I,Dpb()f(,b())=g(,a(),Iσa()),a.e.I,a(0)=ζ(a(η)),b(0)=ζ(b(η)),(11) where σ>0, p(0,1), ηI, ζ:RI is continuous function and the functions f:I×RR,f(0,a(0))=0,f(0,b(0))=0 and g:I×R×RR satisfy specific conditions. Dp is the Caputo fractional order derivative.

To proceed further, assume that the mappings f:I×RI and g:I×R×RI satisfy the following conditions:

  1. the function aaf(κ,a) is increasing in R for all κI;

  2. for every (κ,a,Iσa)I×R×R, there exist positive constants lg and Δg such that g(κ,a,Iσa)lga+Δg;

  3. there exists λ1 and Λ2 such that fκ,a(κ)fκ,b(κ)a(κ)b(κ)Λ2(λ+a(κ)b(κ)),for all a,bRand for all κI;

  4. ζ:RI is continuous function such that ζ(a(κ))ζ(b(κ))1Λ2a(κ)b(κ),for all a,bR, where Λ2;

  5. there exists a continuous function C(I,R) such that gκ,a(κ),b(κ)(κ),a,bR,κI.

Lemma 4.3

Let bC(I,R),0<p<1,σ>0, and fC(I×R,R) with f(0,a(0))=0. Then under the hypothesis (A1), the initial value problem Dp[a(κ)f(κ,a(κ))]=g(κ,b(κ),Iσb(κ)),a.e. κI,a(0)=ζ(a(η)), has a unique solution a(κ)=fκ,a(κ)+ζ(a(η))+1Γ(p)0κ(κ)p1×g,b(),Iσb()d,  κI.

Using Lemma 4.3, we can write system (Equation11) as (12) a(κ)=f(κ,a(κ))+ζ(a(η))+1Γ(p)0κ(κ)p1×g(,b(),Iσ(b()))d,b(κ)=f(κ,b(κ))+ζ(b(η))+1Γ(p)0κ(κ)p1×g(,a(),Iσ(a()))d,I.(12) Now, we present the existence result.

Theorem 4.4

The system (Equation11) has a solution defined on I under the hypothesis (A2)(A5).

Proof.

Let X=C(I,R). Define MX by M={uX:uΞ}, where Ξ1+Δ0+(kp/Γ(p+1))hL1 with Δ0=maxκI|f(κ,0)|+maxηI|ζ(u(η))|. Then, clearly M is nonempty convex, bounded and closed subset of X. Now, since u(κ) is a solution of the system (Equation11) if and only if u(κ) satisfies the system (Equation12). Thus finding the existence solution of system (Equation11) is equivalent to finding the existence solution of (Equation12). For this, define the operators S:XX and T:MX by Su(κ)=f(κ,u(κ))+ζ(u(η)),Tu(κ)=1Γ(p)0κ(κ)p1g(,u(),Iσ(u()))d,κI, so, the system of integral equations (Equation12) is transformed into the system of the following operator equations: (13) u(κ)=Su(κ)+Tv(κ),v(κ)=Sv(κ)+Tu(κ),κI.(13)

We have to show that the system (Equation13) satisfies all the conditions of Corollary 3.3. First we check the continuity of T. For this, let {un} be a sequence in M such that unu as n. Now, consider |Tun(κ)Tu(κ)|=1Γ(p)|0κ(κ)p1g(,un(),Iσ(un()))d0κ(κ)p1g(,u(),Iσ(u()))d|1Γ(p)0κ(κ)p1|g(,un(),Iσ(un()))g(,u(),Iσ(u()))|d. It follows from continuity of g that (14) g(,un(),Iσ(un()))g(,u(),Iσ(u())) as n.(14) Using (A2), we have |g(,un(),Iσ(un()))g(,u(),Iσ(u()))|g(,un(),Iσ(un()))+g(,u(),Iσ(u()))lgun+Δg+lgu+ΔglgΞ+lgΞ+2Δg2[lgΞ+Δg], which implies that (15) (κ)p1g(,un(),Iσ(un()))g(,u(),Iσ(u()))(κ)p12[lgΞ+Δg].(15) That is the left side is integrable. With the help of Lebesgue Dominated convergent theorem, we get 1Γ(p)0κ(κ)p1g(,un(),Iσ(un()))g(,u(),Iσ(u()))d0 as n or Tun(κ)Tu(κ)0 as n. Therefore, TunTu as n, which implies that T is continuous.

Next, we show condition (C2) of Theorem 3.3. For this, let a,bX, we have |S(a)S(b)|=fκ,a(κ)ζ(a(η))fκ,b(κ)+ζ(b(η))fκ,a(κ)fκ,b(κ)+ζ(a(η))ζ(b(η))fκ,a(κ)fκ,b(κ)+a(η)b(η)Λ2a(κ)b(κ)Λ2(λ+a(κ)b(κ))+a(η)b(η)Λ2abΛ2(λ+ab)+abΛ2=ab+(λ+ab)abΛ2(λ+ab)=ab(1+λ+ab)Λ2(λ+ab). Define a control function ϕS by ϕS(r)=r(1+λ+r)/Λ(λ+r) and take k=1/Λ, we can write S(a)S(b)kϕS(ab). Finally, we have to prove condition (C3) of Corollary 3.3, let u,vM such that u=Su+Tv, by assumptions (A3) and (A4), we have |u(κ)|=|Su(κ)+Tv(κ)||f(κ,u(κ))|+|ζ(u(η))|+1Γ(p)0κ(κ)p1×g(,v(),Iσ(v()))d|f(κ,u(κ))f(κ,0)|+|f(κ,0)|+maxηI|ζ(u(η))|+1Γ(p)0κ(κ)p1×g(,v(),Iσ(v()))du(κ)Λ2(λ+u(κ))+Δ0+1Γ(p)0κ(κ)p1()d1+Δ0+kpΓ(p+1)hL1, which implies that u(κ)1+Δ0+kpΓ(p+1)hL1Ξ. That is uM. Thus condition (C3) of Corollary 3.3 holds. Therefore by Corollary 3.3, the operator G(u,v)=Tu+Sv has a coupled fixed point in M~. Accordingly, the system (Equation11) has solution in I.

To illustrate the existence result Theorem 4.4, we present an example.

Example 4.5

Consider the fractional order hybrid differential equations: (16) D1/2a(κ)et|a(κ)|7(1+|a(κ)|)=t33sin|b(κ)|+sin|I3/2b(κ)|,D1/2b(κ)et|b(κ)|7(1+|b(κ)|)=t33sin|a(κ)|+sin|I3/2a(κ)|,a(0)=ζ(η),b(0)=ζ(η),(16) where κ,η[0,π], f:[0,π]×RR,f(0,a(0))=0 and g:[0,π]×R×RR. D1/2 is the Caputo fractional order derivative.

Here f(κ,a(κ))=et|a(κ)|7+|a(κ)|,g(κ,a(κ),Iσa(κ))=t33sin|a(κ)|+sin|I3/2a(κ)|,ζ(a)=a5. So Δ0=maxκI|f(κ,0)|+maxηI|ζ(a(η))|=π, and take (κ)=t3/3, then (κ)=sup0πt33dt=πΛ212. Thus we can write 1+Δ0+kpΓ(p+1)hL1=1+π+πΓ12+1πΛ212<21,i.e. Ξ21. Now, to verify the conditions of Theorem 4.4, we have g(κ,a(κ),I3/2a(κ))=t33sin|a(κ)|+sin|I3/2a(κ)|t33+sin|a(κ)|+sin|I3/2a(κ)|π33+|a(κ)|+|I3/2a(κ)|=π33+|a(κ)|+1Γ320κ(κ)3/21a()dπ33+|a(κ)|+1Γ320κ(κ)1/2a()dπ33+a+2π0κ(κ)1/2adπ33+a+2aπ2π3231+Λ2π3a+π33lga+Δg, where lg=1+Λ2π/3 and Δg=π3/3.

Next, for λ=1 and Λ=2, we have |f(κ,a(κ))f(κ,b(κ))|=et|a(κ)|7(1+|a(κ)|)et|b(κ)|7(1+|b(κ)|)|a(κ)b(κ)|+|b(κ)|7(1+|a(κ)b(κ)|+|b(κ)|)|b(κ)|7(1+|a(κ)b(κ)|+|b(κ)|)|a(κ)b(κ)|7(1+|a(κ)b(κ)|+|b(κ)|)|a(κ)b(κ)|7(1+|a(κ)b(κ)|)|a(κ)b(κ)|Λ2(λ+|a(κ)b(κ)|) and ζ(a(κ))ζ(b(κ))=a(κ)5b(κ)5a(κ)b(κ)Λ2.

Finally, g(κ,a(κ),Iσa(κ))=t33sin|a(κ)|+sin|I3/2a(κ)|t33=(κ), which implies that there exists hC([0,π],R) such that gκ,a(κ),b(κ)(κ),a,bR,κ[0,π]. Thus it follows that all the assumptions of Theorem 4.4 are satisfied. Therefore, we conclude that the problem (Equation16) has a solution.
