1 Introduction
In this paper, we are concerned with the nonlinear fractional differential equations of the type
where \(1<\bar{\theta }<2\), \(\mathfrak {D}^{\bar{\theta }, \varPsi }_{0}\) is the \(\varPsi \)-Caputo fractional derivative, \(\mathscr {G}:[\textrm{0}, {\bar{\chi }}]\times \mathbb {R}\rightarrow \mathbb {R},\) \(\textrm{h}:\mathcal {C}(\textsc {I}, \mathbb {R})\times \mathbb {R}\rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) are nonlinear and continuous functions and \({\upupsilon }\in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I}, \mathbb {R})\); \(\mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) the space of continuous function from \(\textsc {I}\) to \(\mathbb {R}\) with the supremum norm \(\Vert .\Vert \).
Fractional order derivatives and integrals are more general cases of integer order derivatives and integrals as it provide arbitrary order derivatives and integration. It has been seen that many researchers have revealed the efficiency of fractional differential equations \((\mathrm {FDE_{s}})\) in the modelling of physical phenomena in different fields of science and engineering [3, 5, 12, 15, 16], which helped fractional calculus to become a very useful and attractive research field. In the literature, there are several approaches by which authors have defined numerous fractional differential and integral operators see [9]. One such class of fractional operators is an integration and differentiation of one function with respect to another function, referred to as, \(\varPsi \)-Fractional calculus. For instance, Almeida [1], presented \(\varPsi \)-Caputo fractional derivative which is modified version of Caputo derivative. In [17], authors established \(\varPsi \)-Hilfer fractional derivative.
On the other hand, these \(\varPsi \)-fractional operators have been utilized to perform a qualitative analysis of \(\mathrm {FDE_{s}}\). In particular, Almeida et al. [2], investigated the existence, uniqueness, continuous dependence and stability of the \(\varPsi \)-Caputo \(\mathrm {FDE_{s}}\) with the help of Banach fixed point theorem. Kucche et al. [10], studied existence and uniqueness of \(\varPsi \)-Hilfer \(\mathrm {FDE_{s}}\) with the help of Schauder’s fixed point theorem as well as continuous dependence of the corresponding system have been studied by employing Weissinger theorem. Recently, Pachpatte [14] have used the Banach fixed point theorem to study the existence, uniqueness and stability of the \(\varPsi \)-Hilfer partial \(\mathrm {FDE_{s}}\). In [20], Wahash et al. proved estimate and stability of the solution involving \(\varPsi \)-Caputo derivative by using \(\varPsi \)-Gronwall inequality. We mention here some recent studies that focus on the qualitative properties of \(\varPsi \)-fractional differential equations [4, 6, 11, 18, 19, 21].
Motivated by above work, in this paper we discuss existence, uniqueness and stability of (1)–(2). In Sect. 2, we give some preliminaries. In Sect. 3, we prove existence and uniqueness of the solution of (1)–(2) in the view of Banach fixed point theorem. In Sect. 4, we present Stability analysis of (1)–(2). In Sect. 5, an illustrative example is given to demonstrate our results.
2 Preliminaries
Here, we provide some basic definitions and important results which are used throughout this work.
Definition 2.1
([9]) Let \(\bar{\theta }>0\) and \({\upupsilon }\) be an integrable function defined on \(\textsc {I}\). Let \(\varPsi \in \mathcal {C}^{1}(\textsc {I}, \mathbb {R})\) be an increasing function such that \(\varPsi ^{'}(\text {t})\ne 0\), for all \(\text {t} \in \textsc {I}.\) Then \(\varPsi \)-Riemann Liouville fractional integral of \({\upupsilon }\) of order \(\bar{\theta }\) is defined as
Definition 2.2
([1]) Let \(\bar{\theta }>0\) and \(\varPsi \in \mathcal {C}^{n}(\textsc {I}, \mathbb {R})\), the \(\varPsi \)-Caputo fractional derivative of a function \({\upupsilon }\in \mathcal {C}^{n-1}(\textsc {I}, \mathbb {R})\) of order \(\bar{\theta }\) is defined as
where \(n=\lceil \bar{\theta } \rceil +1\) for \(\bar{\theta } \notin \mathbb {N}\), \(n=\bar{\theta }\) for \(\bar{\theta } \in \mathbb {N}\).
and
Lemma 2.1
([1]) Let \(\bar{\theta }>0\). If \({\upupsilon } \in \mathcal {C}^{1}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R}),\) then
and if \({\upupsilon } \in \mathcal {C}^{n}(\textsc {I}, \mathbb {R})\), then
Lemma 2.2
([9]) For \(\bar{\theta },\; \bar{\theta }_{1}>0\) and \({\upupsilon }\in \mathcal {C}^{n}(\textsc {I})\), we have
Lemma 2.3
([1]) Let \(\bar{\theta }>0\). Then
Lemma 2.4
([8]) Let X be a Banach space and \(B \subset X\) be closed. If \(\zeta :B\rightarrow B\) is a contraction mapping, then \(\zeta \) has a fixed point in B.
Lemma 2.5
Let \(1<\bar{\theta }<2\) and \(\mathscr {G}:\textsc {I}\times \mathbb {R} \rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) be a continuous function. Then the problem (1)–(2) is equivalent to
Proof
Operating \(\mathfrak {J}^{\bar{\theta }, \varPsi }_{0}\) on both the sides of (1) and using Lemma 2.1, we get
Since \({\upupsilon }(\textrm{0})={\upupsilon }_{\textrm{0}}-\textrm{h}({\upupsilon })\) and \({\upupsilon }({\bar{\chi }})={\upupsilon }_{{\bar{\chi }}}\), we have
Then
Conversely, suppose that \({\upupsilon }\) satisfies (8). Then from (8), for \(\text {t}=\textrm{0}\) and \(\text {t}={\bar{\chi }}\), we obtain (2). Applying \(\mathfrak {D}^{\bar{\theta }, \varPsi }_{0+}\) on both the sides of (8) and using Lemmas 2.1, 2.3, we get (1). \(\square \)
3 Existence and Uniqueness
Theorem 3.1
Let the function \(\mathscr {G}\) and \(\textrm{h}\) satisfying:
[H1]: there exists \(\mathscr {W}_{1}>0\) and \(0<\mathscr {W}_{2}<1\) such that
and
If
then (1)–(2) has a unique solution.
Proof
Define \({{\textrm{T}}}:\mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R}) \rightarrow \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) as follows:
Then for \({\upupsilon }, {\upupsilon }^{*} \in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R}),\) we have
In view of (10), \({{\textrm{T}}}\) is contraction mapping. By Lemma 2.4, \({\upupsilon }\) is a unique solution of the problem (1)–(2). \(\square \)
4 Stability Analysis
In this section, by using \(\varPsi \)-fractional Gronwall inequality, we analysis the Ulam-Hyers (UH), Generalized Ulam-Hyers (GHU), Ulam-Hyers-Rassias (UHR) and Generalized Ulam-Hyers-Rassias (GUHR) of the problem (1)–(2).
Let \(\varepsilon >0\) and \(f:\textsc {I}\rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) be a continuous function. We consider following inequalities:
and
Definition 4.1
The Eqs. (1)–(2) is said to be UH stable if there exists a real number \(\delta >0\) such that for each \(\varepsilon >0\) and for each solution \(\omega \in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) of the inequality (12), there exists a solution \({\upupsilon }\in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) satisfying
with
Definition 4.2
The Eqs. (1)–(2) is said to be GUH stable if there exists a continuous function \(\varphi :\textsc {I}\rightarrow \textsc {I}\) with \(\varphi (0)=0\) such that for every \(\varepsilon >0\) and for each solution \(\omega \in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) of (12), there exist a solution \({\upupsilon }\in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) of (1)–(2) with
Definition 4.3
The Eqs. (1)–(2) is said to be UHR stable with respect to the function f if there exists a real number \(\delta >0\) such that for every \(\varepsilon >0\) and for each solution \(\omega \in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) of (13), there exist a solution \({\upupsilon }\in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) of (1)–(2) with
Definition 4.4
The Eqs. (1)–(2) is GUHR stable with respect to the function f if there exists a real number \(\delta >0\) such that for each solution \(\omega \in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I}, \mathbb {R})\) of (13), there exist a solution \({\upupsilon }\in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) of (1)–(2) with
Remark 4.1
A function \(\omega \in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I}, \mathbb {R})\) is a solution of (12) if and only if there exists a function \(\textrm{g}\in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) (where \(\textrm{g}\) depends on \(\omega \)) such that

Lemma 4.1
([18]) \(\varPsi \)-Gronwall inequality:
Assume that \({\upupsilon }\) and u are nonnegative integrable functions on \(\textsc {I}\). Let \(\rho \) be a nonnegative continuous function on \(\textsc {I}\) such that \(\rho \) is nondecreasing. If
then
for \(\text {t}\in \textsc {I}\).
Remark 4.3
([18]) Under the assumptions of Lemma 4.1, let \({\upupsilon }(\text {t})\) be a nondecreasing function on \(\textsc {I}\). Then we have
where \(E_{\bar{\theta }}(\text {t})=\sum _{m=0}^{\infty }\frac{\text {t}^m}{\varGamma (\bar{\theta }+1)}.\)
In the next theorem, we discuss the UH stability of the problem (1)–(2) with the help of \(\varPsi \)-Gronwall inequality.
Theorem 4.1
Suppose that [H1] hold and inequality (12) is satisfied, then the problem (1)–(2) is UH stable.
Proof
Let \(\varepsilon >0.\) Assume that \({\upupsilon }\) be a solution of (1)–(2). Then
where
From (15), we can write
where
Since \(\omega \in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I},\mathbb {R})\) is a solution of inequality (12). By Remark 4.1, we have
Operating \(\mathfrak {J}^{\bar{\theta }, \varPsi }_{0}\) on both the sides of (26), we obtain
By our assumption and from (24) and (27), we obtain
Applying Lemma 4.1 to (28), we get
Put

Proof
In a same fashion similar to Theorem 4.1, setting \(\varphi (\varepsilon )=\delta \varepsilon \) with \(\varphi (0)=0\), we get
\(\square \)
In order to prove UHR and GUHR stability, the following hypothesis must be satisfied:
[H2]: There exist an increasing function \(f \in \mathcal {C}(\textsc {I}, \mathbb {R})\) and \(\gamma >0\) such that

Operating \(\mathfrak {J}^{\bar{\theta }, \varPsi }_{0+}\) and using the hypothesis [H2], we deduce that

Theorem 4.3
Let \(\varepsilon >0\) and \(\omega \in \mathcal {C}(J,\mathbb {R})\) be a solution (13) and \(\mathscr {W}_{1}\gamma \ne 1,\) then (1)–(2) is UHR stable.
Proof
Let \({\upupsilon } (\text {t})\) be a solution of (1)–(2) and using \(\varPhi _{{\upupsilon }}=\varPhi _{\omega }\) Then

5 Example
Example 5.1
Consider the following fractional differential equation involving \(\varPsi \)-Caputo derivative
Here, \(\bar{\theta }=\frac{3}{2},\) \(\mathscr {G} \big (\text {t}, {\upupsilon }(\text {t})\big )=\text {t}+\frac{1}{6}sin{\upupsilon }(\text {t}),\) \(\textrm{h}({\upupsilon })=\frac{1}{4}{\upupsilon }(\frac{1}{3}).\) Then for \(\text {t}\in [0,1],\)
Therefore \(\mathscr {W}_{1}=\frac{1}{6}\) and \(\mathscr {W}_{2}=\frac{1}{4}\). For \(\varPsi (\text {t})=\text {t},\) we have
Hence, all the conditions of Theorem 3.1 are satisfied. Thus, by the Theorem 3.1, problem (41)–(42) has unique solution.
6 Concluding Remark
In this research work, the existence and uniqueness of the proposed system have been successfully examined using Banach fixed point theorem under some specific assumptions and conditions. Along with the existence and uniqueness, we established stability results such as UH, GUH, UHR and GUHR in the sense of \(\Psi \)-Gronwall inequality. It should be noted that, for different values of \(\Psi \), the \(\Psi \)-Caputo fractional derivative reduces to many classical fractional operators such as Caputo [9], Caputo-Hadamard [7], Caputo-Erdélyi-Kober [13] fractional derivative. Thus, we believe that the results derived in this article are general in character and contributes in the theory of fractional differential equations.
