Abstract
One of the effective methods to find explicit solutions of differential equations is the method based on the operator representation of solutions. The essence of this method is to construct a series, whose members are the relevant iteration operators acting to some classes of sufficiently smooth functions. This method is widely used in the works of B. Bondarenko for construction of solutions of differential equations of integer order. In this paper, the operator method is applied to construct solutions of linear differential equations with constant coefficients and with Caputo fractional derivatives. Then the fundamental solutions are used to obtain the unique solution of the Cauchy problem, where the initial conditions are given in terms of the unknown function and its derivatives of integer order. Comparison is made with the use of Mikusinski operational calculus for solving similar problems.
