Title: Solutions to nonlocal fractional differential equations using a noncompact semigroup Authors: Shaochun Ji (Huaiyin Institute of Technology, Huaian, China) Gang Li (Yangzhou University, Yangzhou, China} Abstract: This article concerns the existence of solutions to nonlocal fractional differential equations in Banach spaces. By using a type of newly-defined measure of noncompactness, we discuss this problem in general Banach spaces without any compactness assumptions to the operator semigroup. Some existence results are obtained when the nonlocal term is compact and when is Lipschitz continuous. Submitted August 22, 2013. Published October 29, 2013.
