Abstract

In this paper, we study boundary value problems for fractional differential equations involving Caputo derivative in Banach spaces. A generalized singular type Gronwall inequality is given to obtain an important priori bounds. Some sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions are established by virtue of fractional calculus and fixed point method under some mild conditions. Two examples are given to illustrate the results.
