Abstract:
We apply the quasilinearization method to a Dirichlet boundary value
problem and to a right focal boundary value problem for a
Riemann-Liouville fractional differential equation.
First, we sue the method of upper and lower solutions to obtain
the uniqueness of solutions of the Dirichlet boundary value problem.
Next, we apply a suitable fixed point theorem to establish the existence
of solutions. We develop a quasilinearization algorithm and construct
sequences of approximate solutions that converge monotonically
and quadratically to the unique solution of the boundary value problem.
Two examples are exhibited to illustrate the main result for the Dirichlet
boundary value problem.
