Abstract

This manuscript is committed to deal with the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for fractional relaxation equation involving ψ-Caputo fractional derivative. The existence of solution is carried out with the help of Schauder’s fixed point theorem, while the uniqueness of the solution is obtained by applying the Banach contraction principle, along with Bielecki type norm. Moreover, two explicit monotone iterative sequences are constructed for the approximation of the extreme positive solutions to the proposed problem. Lastly, two examples are presented to support the obtained results.
